The before pictures were taken a few weeks ago, just before the leaves began to change. The after were taken this morning. Protesters are currently awaiting a decision by a judge to see if they can go back in.
55 Parking Lot Assholes
Anybody who's ever driven has experienced the parking-lot asshole.
Bad Parking Job
Really, just a fantastically awful parking job.
South Park Apologizes To College Humor
After a lot of people noticed that South Park 's Inception parody shared numerous similarities with CollegeHumor's “Inception Characters Don’t Understand Inception” video, they apologized. Check out both videos and South …
2 THINGS: 1) The movement didn't “start off right” and then start “alienating regular people.” The movement started off by radicals and has since seen huge influxes of “regular people” join up. 2) Don't believe for a minute that Obama is “standing with us.” The FBI and Homeland Security are helping to coordinate these national raids on Occupy protests.

The Health and Hygiene argument really is bullshit. Chinatown on a Saturday night is so much more of a health hazard than OWS.
Now the facade of a beautiful and fair society can commence. Thank you NYC for reminding us that ignorance is bliss.
They will just move somewhere else. You really think they are going to forget about everything they are fighting for?
PArk? more like parking spaces!
Please, like that's gonna stop the movement. The rage against the machine will only grow..
Hmmm, really nice park when it's not empty…
Ok so the police and the security guards are going to stand(occupy)in the park? Bet they can't stand there 30 days.
Looks like it smells a lot better and might
be safe for kids to enjoy a nice walk
through on their way home from school!
These tent cities are such an eye sore…
we get it, you're unemployed or living
paycheck to paycheck. You have no
specific, solid plans that you think the
government should follow through on in
order to make you happy, so go back to
trying to find a job or making money
somehow because your presence is stale and no longer effective
Zuccotti Park looks a lot better without the OWS protesters.
I think the OWS in it's very beginning had a very salient issue to put forward. It soon degenerated into, in the minds of most people a bunch of losers who are smoking pot, relieving themselves in public, and commiting crimes. In fact the initial cause was very popular. I think it resonates with a lot of people when you start asking why these big financial institutions haven't been held accountable. Where are the prosecutions? Why haven't the rating agencies been prosecuted for fraud in giving out A ratings when they knew they weren't. Why hasn't Golman Sachs, Magnastar, and like companies been prosecuted for putting together CDO's designed to fail then duping investors into buying them while those companies were buying default swaps on those bad CDO's thus causing the default swap issuers (AIG) to pay out big bucks. We had to bail out AIG so they could pay off Goldman Sachs. People would be behind going after these companies. Why isn't that happening? Why aren't people holding the Obama Administration's feet to the fire on this? Instead the movement has discredited itself. It's not viable anymore. Once they started pissing off the regular joe, the small businessman, mom with kids with their behavior it became a joke. Why didn't they occupy the lobby of the new Goldman Sachs building, or the SEC/DOJ offices for not prosecuting?

I see the OWS movement being cooped by unions. I don't know how I feel about that.
Bye-bye narcissistic, self-regarding hippies!
Lets see. It took 5 hours to scrub the park clean and there is no permanent damage to the park. Now I see what Bloomberg was bitching about…oh wait, no. I don't.
If this were the old Buzzfeed (pre-99%) they would be making posts mocking the people comparing this to Tienanmen Square
good to see the park empty. occupy protesters are a bunch of bums. doing nothing but spending tax money on clean up and repairs to these public parks
Those dirty hippies peed on the ground so much it turned the trees yellow.
