#OccupyWallStreet A Big Hit With the Neighbors

How'd you like to live next door to Zuccotti Park?
Livid lower Manhattan residents went off on Zuccotti Park protesters at a heated Community Board 1 meeting last night and blasted politicians for not controlling the chaos.

“They’re defecating on our doorsteps,” fumed board member Catherine Hughes, a stay-at-home mom who lives one block from the protest. “The cowbells start at 4 a.m. and the drumming goes past 10 a.m. A lot of people are very frustrated. A lot of people are concerned about the safety of our kids.”

Fed-up homeowners said they’ve been insulted and harassed as they trek to their jobs each morning. “The protesters taunt people who are on their way to work,” said James Fernandez, 51.

The meeting, packed with more than 200 people, spilled out onto the street, where Zuccotti sympathizers began sparring with their critics.

Board member Paul Cantor said sleepless residents can’t take the incessant racket. “If people can’t sleep ... then that’s a problem,” he said.

Despite the complaints, the board unanimously voted for a resolution supporting the protesters’ right to stay in the park but called for a crackdown on noise, public urination and defecation, and disruptive barricades.
And look at this idiotic comment on Twitter from a OWS loon:
@mtracey: Community Board member complains of #OWS folk who "defecate in the street." She must also oppose police horses then.
Yeah, they're just like police horses. Though to be honest, police horses have better manners.

These losers love community activism, so perhaps the people who live in the area should import a few thugs er, activists... and clean the park out themselves. My guess is the cops would look the other way for the first two hours or so.

In Oakland they've been given an eviction notice, but will they follow through? They tried that in New York until Nanny Bloomberg backed down and Democrat politicians started threatening the owners of Zuccotti Park.

Those working New Yorkers need to vote out some bums, and hire Hell's Angels.
