Why do all these pieces sound so pompous? Only Whites are racist, and its only their responsiblity. Are other races incapable of making such judgements or decisions? Stop acting like they're children, fucking racists.

I have two black friends. Am I clean?
Edit: And a half-asian, half-black guy on the internet. That's, like, two in one!
Edit 2: Ravi is both a free market capitalist AND a minority.
Hell, he was one before I (a white man) got into it.

My family came from GERMANY. I don't have a DROP of slave-owner blood in me.
What else do these assholes want with me!?!?!?!

Facing Eviction, Protesters Begin Park Cleanup
| Quote: | By ANEMONA HARTOCOLLIS and ANDY NEWMAN
Robert Stolarik for The New York TimesOccupy Wall Street protesters at Zuccotti Park swept and scrubbed on Thursday afternoon, hoping to stave off even temporary eviction.
Updated, 4:11 p.m.| As the clock ticked down on the occupiers of Zuccotti Park and the prospect of eviction loomed, Police Commissioner Raymond W. Kelly said protesters would not be allowed to return to the park with any camping gear after it had been cleaned.
“After it’s cleaned, they’ll be able to come back,” Mr. Kelly told reporters after a memorial ceremony in Battery Park. “But they won’t be able to bring back the gear. The sleeping bags, that sort of thing, will not be able to be brought back into the park.”
A set of rules, including the ban on sleeping bags, has been posted in the park for weeks, but has not been enforced.
On Wednesday night, Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg announced that the park, which has not been maintained during the four-week occupation, would be closed temporarily at 7 a.m. Friday and cleaned quadrant by quadrant.
Many protesters have called the evacuation order a pretext for shutting down the protests permanently, and some have vowed nonviolent resistance on Friday morning, including encircling the park to prevent the police from forcing them to leave.
The city also seemed to suggest that the protesters would no longer be able to continue making the park their temporary living quarters.
“Protesters can remain in the park during Brookfield’s section-by-section clean-up and they will be able to return to the cleaned sections once work is completed tomorrow and can stay in the park 24/7 so long as they follow park rules,” said Marc La Vorgna, a spokesman for Mr. Bloomberg. “We will continue to defend and guarantee their free speech rights, but those rights do not include the ability to infringe on the rights of others, which is why the rules governing the park will be enforced.”
On Thursday afternoon, a pre-emptive cleanup effort by the Occupy Wall Street protesters’ lurched into high gear.
Volunteers taped off sections of the park, hauled off debris and scrubbed the walkways clean — in the hope that if the park could be made spick-and-span, the city and the park’s owners, Brookfield Properties, might relent and let them stay.
At a meeting at the park Thursday morning, protesters urged each other to clean house. “Pick up a broom, pick up the trash, encourage people to wake at a decent hour,” one woman called to the crowd. “Show Mayor Bloomberg that he is dead wrong.”
Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg received a decidedly mixed reception when he went to Zuccotti Park Wednesday night to announce the cleanup.
An older woman who identified herself as a landscape artist even suggested that they take up a collection to replace trampled chrysanthemums. The crowd heard her out, but it was suggested that she needed to take this proposal to the finance committee.
Fred Pantozzi, a protester, was one of the first to step up, filling plastic bags with trash. “Every action that you see here is autonomous,” he said.
In a letter (see below) sent Tuesday to Mr. Kelly asking that the police remove the protesters, Brookfield’s chief executive, Richard B. Clark, noted that the park was “intended to be a relaxing, tree-filled oasis in the midst of the hustle and bustle of Lower Manhattan.”
He added that the activity of the protesters “violates the law, violates the rules of the park, deprives the community of its rights of quiet enjoyment of the park and creates health and public safety issues that need to be addressed immediately.”
Mayor Bloomberg cited the letter on Wednesday night when he announced the plan to close the park on Friday.
After describing the conditions at the park after four weeks of occupation, Mr. Clark wrote, “In light of this and the ongoing trespassing of the protesters, we are again requesting the assistance of the New York City Police Department to help clear the park” so that cleaning, maintenance and repairs could be performed. |
And that's the end of that chapter.

No. It was always about getting handouts.
