Rikers cons flood Zuccotti for free eats

[PoliticAverse]

Source: New York Post

Newly sprung ex-cons and vagrants rousted from other parks are crashing the Occupy Wall Street protest, where gourmet meals are free and boozy, drug­fueled parties are on tap, the movement’s leaders griped yesterday.

“They’re telling people who leave prison to go to Zuccotti Park,” lamented Daniel Zetah, a leader of the OWS community-relations group.

Volunteer Lauren Digioia, 26, said, “We have drug dealing going on here, gang activity, public intoxication. There are a lot of instigators. There are a lot of vultures.

“Everyone knows we give out free food and sleeping bags, and it’s a perfect opportunity for squatters.”

1. New York Post???!!!

Do you seriously expect us to swallow this tripe?

[PoliticAverse]

2. One shouldn't 'swallow' any media articles, especially one from a Murdoch owned paper...

like the New York Post.

[Warren DeMontague]

10. but wait.. I thought you said 'free eats'

GOOD GOD MAN, WHAT ABOUT THE DRUG FUELED ORGIES AND FREE EATS!!!!?????

3. There's only one part of this article that I'd give ready credence to

“They’re telling people who leave prison to go to Zuccotti Park,” lamented Daniel Zetah, a leader of the OWS community-relations group.

4. How can they get free booze and drugs if it's a alcohol and drug free zone...

...enforced by the occupiers?
My BS meter went off the scale again. What a steaming pile. Every bit of the NY PoST is a steaming pile. Here in NYC we know the P.O.S.T. stands for Piece Of Shit Tabloid!
Some people buy it for the sports section which is half of the paper. another quarter is gossip, the rest (that isn't ads) is PROPAGANDA. Out and out lies. Everyone in NYC knows this.

6. Sounds like my local fish wrap

I need a copy..for the birds cages.

[Salviati]

11. I woudn't wrap fish with that rag.

I'd be afraid the BS would rub off on it.

[nadinbrzezinski]

5. At least my local RW

Produced a tape..one that did not happen the way or where they claim...but easy to see through on a frame by frame.

Free clue this is a modern day version of dirty drug addled hippies get a job.

7. This is Appalling! OWS is fighting against the elites & the system. How DARE those vagrants show up!

:think: Wait a minute, a connection is slowly forming here...

[piratefish08]

8. more Murdoch links! sweet thanks! REAL news!

:wtf:

[Warren DeMontague]

9. ah, yes, the NY Post

fucking CLASSIC.

[Motown_Johnny]

12. well maybe we should raise taxes and spend some of it on them

so that they don't need to do these types of things



Not that I believe any of this.

[TBF]

15. Do what types of things? Eat and sleep? If OWS is smart they will invite in every EX-prisoner

and inform them of what's happened in this country while they've been incarcerated. They are part of the 99% too.

[Motown_Johnny]

22. I was referring to the alleged drug deals and other alleged illicit activities

13. Bologna News

* The NYPD inspector who pepper-sprayerd a protestor has been quietly transferred to an administrative post on Staten Island, The Post has learned. Anthony Bologna had been docked 10 vacation days after he was caught on video spraying teacher’s aide Kaylee Dedrick, 24, in the eyes.

His new assignment, as the borough’s special-projects inspector, will “get him out of the line of fire,’’ a source said.

14. Rupet Murdoch's Post has done nothing but publish anti-OWS stories

Why repeat them here?

[PoliticAverse]

17. So people are aware of what a paper in NYC with a daily circulation of > 600,000 is saying...

and can then go to their comment section associated with the article to refute any falsehoods ?

[RoccoR5955]

20. Circulation of 600,000 breaks down like this

450,000 read only the sports, 100,000 only read the gossip, 50,000 use it to wipe up after their dog.
NOBODY actually believes the "news" in the NY PoS Tabloid!

[blogslut]

21. It would seem to me

That anyone who considers the New York Post a source of dependable news is lost already.

[Avalux]

16. They want people to be afraid to join the protest....

who would want to go with all those ex-cons and boozy drugfueled parties????

[PoliticAverse]

19. They also want people to support the (eventual) crackdown and removal of campers... n/t

[Lucinda]

18. Thanks. I'd never read it on my own, but it is good to know what they are saying.
