The Boston Herald’s story is actually about the Boston Occupiers turning to……
Occupy Boston has turned to the local experts on street survival — the homeless — as members of the leaderless movement prepare to dig in for a long winter in their makeshift tent city on the Rose Kennedy Greenway downtown.
The homeless have given the anti-corporate protest’s volunteer organizers helpful tips such as stuffing their clothes with “hay and straw,†said Kristopher Eric Martin, who works in Occupy Boston’s logistics and supplies tent.
Why, yes, let’s ask the people who may be crazy and uneducated for advice. Anyhow, the city said the Occupiers are more than welcome to hang out and freeze their nads off to their hearts content. Though, they probably realize that once the temps start dipping down, the Occupiers will head for home.
Boston Fire Department spokesman Steve MacDonald also offered some good advice: “Please do not burn the city down, perhaps by using kerosene lamps.â€
“Our concern is always the big picture: No matter where you live, you don’t do things to heat your home, heat your space, heat your garage against common sense,†he said.
Yeah, probably a good idea, and, something that should be stressed to the Occupiers, since, being liberals, they do need someone to hold their hands, wipe their noses, and constantly inform them that burning the city down is a Bad Idea.
Meanwhile, Zuccotti Park area residents in NYC are a wee bit upset
Infuriated lower Manhattan residents went ballistic on Zuccotti Park protesters at a chaotic Community Board 1 meeting tonight while blasting politicians for allowing the siege to continue without any end in sight.
“They are defecating on our doorsteps,” fumed Catherine Hughes, a member of Community Board 1 and a stay at home mom who has the misfortune of living one block from the chaos. “A lot of people are very frustrated. A lot of people are concerned about the safety of our kids.”
Fed up homeowners said that they’ve been subjected to insults and harassment as they trek to their jobs each morning. “The protesters taunt people who are on their way to work,” said James Fernandez, 51, whose apartment overlooks the park.
They are literally pooping on people’s doorsteps. That is pretty much symbolic of the movement at this point: crapping on Everyone Else so they can get their way.
They’re also making so much noise that people, including children, are having trouble sleeping. When asked to tone it down, the Occupiers get even louder and more abusive.
These are what the Democrats are turning to to help them stave off ELIMINATION in 2012.
Homeless vagrants.
Please dont burn down the city….stuff your shirts with STRAW and dont forget to vote for Democrats cause those Republicans want to balance the BUDGET…….
Tea partiers are insane cause they dont want to be taxed MORE and want fiscal sanity……..
The basturds!!!!
LOLOLOLOL……PROGRESSIVES!! The pinnacle of stupidity.
Since the EPA has declared hay a pollutant good luck with finding it to help insulate in the future.
Tell them to don’t forget to use the MSM newspapers, those are good for insulation and double as TP.
Spolied sports. What good is a revolution, if you can’t burn anything?
Aren’t homeless shelters already slammed in the cities where these campins are located?
Every year when temperatures drop significantly during below average cold snaps, homeless people die when they refuse efforts to get them to come to a shelter. What happens when there is a sudden need for a couple hundred more bodies?
I suggest Boston invite the mayor of Cincinnati to run their city for a couple of days.
Interestingly, it seems like many mayors in the People’s Socialist Republic of California are saying “nyet, comrades, you cannot park your disgusting unshowered butts in the parks overnight.”
The camp-in in Oakland is headed for something really ugly if the city and the idealists don’t get a clue.
