Occupy protesters delay beer delivery

[monovillage]

Some workers trying to enter the area were delayed, such as Dayton Phillips, 28, and Rafi Vazquez, 29. The pair work for a beer delivery company and were making their weekly stop at Duane Reade’s Pine Street store. Normally, they would be in and out in 15 minutes after delivering cases of beer, but at 9 a.m., it had taken them 30 minutes to get there, and they weren’t sure how long it would take to get out.

They also managed to get 146 useless protesters arrested and they wore paper hats and threw confetti.

Huge support from the locals for the protesters...........not.

Adam Herschenfeld, 23, was on his way to his first day at work at investment advisory firm Buckman, Buckman and Reid, when he was blocked from passing the barricades set up by police.

“This is my first day at work and the cops won’t let me down on Wall Street without a pass. I had to call my boss to come get me,” he said. “If I wasn’t trying to get to my job I would be very entertained.’’

Jackie Marrone, a marketing assistant at L’Oreal 22, moved to the Financial District two months ago. She was trying to walk from her apartment to catch the 4 train uptown from Wall Street train station.

“That’s annoying. … It is kind of frustrating that I can’t walk down my street,’’ Marrone said.

Asked about the possibility that the Occupy movement might return more permanently, she said: “Hopefully it doesn’t happen.’’

Amanda Peyser lives in the financial district and remembers the chaos of months ago. The 27-year-old nurse tried to walk her dog Monday.

“I am just not looking forward to it happening again,” she said. “Constant presence, constant police, chaos.”

We should probably be happy during these times of rising tensions that they didn't engage in violence, just made a minor ass pain of themselves.

If the real OWS returned then it would be good but it has been hijacked by big government idiots

wow.

just wow.

OWS imploded and is now almost extinct. Nobody cared then and no one cares now. Except of course deluded anarchists, socialists and various dreamers and losers.

But, you go girl!

I was just making fun of how ineffectual and useless the ignorant and lazy garbage that made up the various Occupy movements were. We had a good number of leftist posters here that thought the Occupy movement was going to be the next great political movement in the U.S. and Canada and was going to bring a tidal wave of political and social change. Instead it turned out to be a bunch of privileged and wealthy trust fund whiners, useless academic elitists and the usual perennial protesting communists and socialists.
So I'm celebrating the one year anniversary of epic liberal political fail. Good riddance losers.

There's far more instant gratification in fighting the man, getting yourself arrested and resisting than there is in actually taking the time and changing any of the perceived issues. This whole debacle is one big seratonin trip by people that just don't take the time to accomplish anything; after all how much can you have going in your life to be able to take off indefinite amount of time to camp in manhattan?

I added the most important part.
