From the article;
Quote:
"We're just trying to say that this country has gone in the wrong direction, and we need spaces that we can control and we can decide our future in, and that's what this is about," said David Suker, who was among those who scaled the fence.
Why does the space the idiot feels the need to control have to belong to someone else? I've got an idea for the would be squatter. Get a job, earn some money, and buy your own property.

These OWS types have absolutely no respect for the private ownership of property.

Can you imagine what life would be like if they were in charge?

I keep wondering if these fools have decided that since Obama spoke kindly of them when they got started and he has talked about redistributing the wealth they think he will help them take over just any property they want, Someone needs to put a number of them in jail and teach them the laws concerning private property and how one gets control of it.

There would probably be a lot of squatting on private property and a lot of actual squatting on same. They just don't seem to realize that they can't just live anywhere they want or what lack of facilities causes.

While there, some of them are going to find out what it's like to be occupied...

No. They can't be merely trespassing; they have to enter your home, workplace, or vehicle using force or be committing a violent crime.

Eventually these selfish lawbreakers will actually have enough pending charges against them that they will be unemployable.
