New York (CNN) -- A cleaning planned for the Manhattan park where "Occupy Wall Street" protesters have camped out for weeks has been postponed, a move that averts a showdown between demonstrators and police.
The New York mayor's office said Brookfield Properties, the owners of Zuccotti Park, told the city late Thursday the scheduled cleaning is off for now and "for the time being" they are "withdrawing their request" made earlier in the week for police assistance during the cleaning operation.
"Our position has been consistent throughout: the City's role is to protect public health and safety, to enforce the law, and guarantee the rights of all New Yorkers.

Just saw this previous thread. Sorry for the dup!
Any Haitian emigres around? A little Cholera would do wonders for the demonstrators.
Maybe we can smuggle a rabbid raccoon in there. That should make it fun.

True enough. But the longer this goes on, the worse it looks for everyone for whom that matters. As Bonaparte once said, "Never interrupt your enemy while he is making a mistake."
It's all they've got left. This administration is in its FINAL DAYS
This OWS movement is Obamas last round.
Beat me to it. Rudy wouldn’t stand for this.
If you don’t have property rights, you don’t have any rights at all.
Real leadership there, Mikey.
