What Constitutional Rights?

While I've been busy the last few days, the police state has moved in and evicted the peaceably assembled OWS protestors around the country. In the middle of last night, Zuccotti Park was forceably cleared. If I had any energy I'd be beyond pissed.

However, the NYC protestors aren't taking it laying down:

And here is the restraining order they have gotten:

I'll be following this story. Have things to do right now but will be back later...

I've been trying to keep up with this. Thank goodness you're back. :) Things seem to have taken a turn for the worst...

I'll hit news today, I promise. There's so much going on. At least the Zuccotti OWS is back there, sans sleeping bags, but back.
