East-West Rift Growing in Zuccotti Park / NYPD seeding #OWS with drunk, homeless, unbalanced

NYPD seeding Zuccotti Park with lowlife population of drunk, homeless and mentally unbalanced, in a cynical ploy to use the openness of #OWS to destroy it from within.

from the Daily News:

At Occupy Wall Street central, a rift is growing between east and west sides of the plaza
The Wall Street protesters determined to “Occupy Everything” now find themselves, in a sense, occupied

Something's up @ArtistsSpace.

But is it really happening? And does it have anything to do with #OWS?

Steve, it's a fucking disaster. Columbia grad, internationally exhibited performance artist, Georgi Sagri interrupted someone's lecture yesterday by passing out a pretty weak "Take Artists Space" poem, and then invited kids who had no idea what Artists Space was to occupy the spae. Has nothing to do with #OWS - it's like "Occupy a Friendly Non Profit Gallery". What artist doesn't want to do that?


#OccupyTheBoardroom: The Yes Lab suggests you become BFFs with a banker

October 17, 2011. An email arrived today from the Yes Lab suggesting we should all reach out and become BFFs "with the 1% who wrecked the economy and left us with the bill." I pass it on for your consideration.

Dear Friend,

You’re on the Yes Men mailing list, which means you’ve probably seen some of our corporate crime-fighting mischief. Now it’s time to spring into action yourself — by becoming Best Friends Forever (BFFs) with the 1% who have wrecked the economy and left us with the bill.

Visit www.occupytheboardroom.org to find hundreds of available 1%ers today; then figure out how to reach them.
