    You should pay attention to what the NYC councilpeople are actually saying. You obviously have no clue.
    you are the posterboy for clueless.

    Really? instead of looking for the union boogeyman in every political move I look for sources and quotes lets try this:

    http://www.myfoxny.com/dpp/news/spea...s-20111115-akd

    I even used Fox as a source because you are comfortable with them as a news outlet.

    New York City Council Speaker Christine Quinn expressed concern over reports of how the NYPD's arrested of hundreds of Occupy Wall Street protesters, members of the news media, and a college in the council in and near Zuccotti Park on Tuesday.

    "As I have said from the very beginning, we must balance the protesters' First Amendment rights with the rights of the residents, workers, and businesses of Lower Manhattan. We must protect the protestors' right to peaceful assembly and the local community's right to a safe and secure neighborhood," Quinn said in a statement. "Today's actions include reports of excessive force by the NYPD, and reports of infringement of the rights of the press. If these reports are true, these actions are unacceptable. The Council will seek answers to questions surrounding these reports and clarifying information regarding the arrest and treatment of Council Member Ydanis Rodriguez."

    Rodriguez, who represents parts of Upper Manhattan, was among those arrested and may have suffered an injury. Councilman Jumaane Williams said he witnessed Rodriguez's arrest and saw blood on his colleague's forehead.

    But Police Commissioner Raymond Kelly said that to the best of his knowledge Rodriguez did not claim to be hurt, the AP reported.
    I have a clue on the specifics. You form opinions based on preconceived bias and want. So continue to create stories in your head with incomplete or just false bull and I will continue to point it out.

    Prominent NYC Council members are very vocal advocates of the movement. Thats why Bloomberg hasn't been able to do what he really wants to do because they call him on it.

    No city council is unanimous, dumbass.

    Put it to a vote.

    Then let the people vote out the idiots next election.

    I never said Bloomberg had unanimous support from the council. I am willing to bet he has majority support, though.

    The bait and switch isn't going to work asshole. You said they were sick of the protestors. You were speaking of them as an individual. I just cited the first article on a 'NYC council occupy' google search to demonstrate you were not only wrong but once again inserting your preconceived notions as truth.

    Put what to a vote? Some ordinance that random Texan wants? GMFB.

    I wasn't the one that evicted them from the park. There obviously must be a few in New York that are tired of the occupiers .

    That pretty much encapsulates 90% of the conservatives on this board, honestly.

    i think it would be better for all of us if Darrin would just offer to send his chain emails to a list rather than 'share' them with all of us. Pigeonholing and lies.

    The owner of the park has the right to control his property, and wanted the eviction. It is a private park, not public.

    Is the agreement written in stone for 24/7 access?
    If the owner of the property wants the protestors gone, I'd lean towards forcing them out. But as WC said, it depends on how the contract is written.

    This just in: DarrinS is unable to comprehend metaphors, and feels that 3 individuals = THE MEDIA. Very unsurprising.

    So you'd agree that a private business, such as an eatery, could "evict" people based on race because it is their right as property owners?
    Yes.

    You have the moral ethical right to do what you wish with your own property.

    That's strange. I could swear that I don't see any "No blacks" signs up in restaurants or department stores anymore.

    So you're saying that I can own a business and openly discriminate against other races? Really? That's what you're arguing?

    The park is privately owned FOR public use. It was agreed when the company took ownership that the public would have 24/7 access to the park. It is not private property in the sense that they cannot say the public cannot use it. This is why even though it's "private" it was open to anyone prior to OWS.
    i'm pretty sure private/public has a purpose for which to help with access and acts sort of as an easement. That doesn't mean that the public can squat and damage property.

    Thats now what you said. You gave some moral imperative to holding property. That is clearly not the case.

    again a straw man.

    Get with the program.

    There are laws against discrimination. no one is arguing that point.

    On the other hand, if an owner of private property posts it for no trespassing there are laws that side with the landowner and the trespasser is breaking the law.

    BTW, the judge ruled they can't camp in the park. The first amendment doesn't say anything about the right to camp.
