Occupy Protesters Are Arrested at Union Square Park - NYTimes.com
Quote:
Several protesters were arrested early Wednesday after scores of Occupy Wall Street demonstrators converged on Union Square Park in Lower Manhattan, the authorities said.

In all, six protesters were taken into custody after the hours-long face-off on a range of charges, including resisting arrest, disorderly conduct and obstructing governmental administration, according to a spokesman for the New York Police Department.

“They were blocking pedestrian traffic,” said the spokesman, who could not provide an estimate of the crowd’s size. “They were given a lawful order to disperse and when they subsequently refused, they were arrested.” The spokesman asked that his name not be used.

Being against the corruption on wall street and in the country means you're a leftist? Then again, I guess it does

Of course not, it's hard to demand other peoples stuff when you actually work for a living.

A lot of them are unemployable, also a lot of them don't want to work. They want free stuff.

Figures, just a bunch of vile, ignorant people. I wonder how many arrests there will be between now and November?

Or better yet, how many times will Tempest69 say they are just like the Tea Party......

No, thinking that Wall Street is more corrupt than the District of Columbia makes someone leftist.
