Great, you can copy and paste a video description.

No way they announce that Zuccotti Park used to be Liberty Park and is now a privately owned NYC park. That's going blow up in their face.

It's some OWS protesters explaining the injunction they received from the court. Apparently it says that they are allowed to be in the park, with their stuff if they want, until 11:30 pm (at which point presumably they have to leave for the night). If that's the ruling, it seems eminently fair.

Telling the protesters they can't bring tents into Zuccotti Park, is like asking Ziggy Marley not to inhale.

Exactly, if they're not legally allowed to stay in the park overnight why let them bring in tents and sleeping bags until 11pm? At 11pm it's just going to be another eviction and people are going to be pushing harder than ever to get the police to react with violence so they have something on video they can use.

CNN Breaking News, the retraining order has been DENIED. Find some other land to destroy, the people of NY don't want you in their park.

Oh dear. The judges order was VACATED....OWS cannot camp on private property.

The ruling by Manhattan Supreme Court Justice Michael Stallman says that city can stop protesters from bringing tents, tarps and other camping equipment into the park.
I just have to ask. Why do these people think they have a RIGHT to camp on other people's property?

These people believe that anyone wealthy enough to own private property is evil and deserves no rights.

Anyone with half a brain seen this one coming. Priority rights are fundamental to the nation, if you take them away, then no other law holds value.
