Majority of New Yorkers Now View Occupy Wall Street Unfavorably

While the Tea Party continues to get smeared by liberals, even those with "no evidence" to back their wild claims up, the uber-violent Occupy Wall Street, a hypocritical movement without any real cause or leadership, is finally being seen for what it really is by people in its own backyard:

According to the poll, both the Tea Party and Occupy Wall Street are viewed unfavorably by the majority of New Yorkers. The Tea Party’s numbers rose a bit this month with 30 percent of voters viewing the movement favorably compared to 28 percent in November and 58 percent viewing it unfavorably compared to 60 percent in November. Occupy Wall Street favorable rating dropped from 45 percent in November to 38 percent. The unfavorable rating for Occupy Wall Street climbed from 44 percent in November to 52 percent.

Occupy Wall Street Manages to Shut Down a Business

NYDN.com:

Milk Street Cafe, the restaurant whose business dried up in the face of the Occupy Wall Street barricades, is shutting down.


Thursday will be the last day for the 23,000 square-foot eatery that opened at 40 Wall St. in June, the Daily News has learned.


“It’s terribly sad,” Milk Street Cafe owner Marc Epstein told the News.


Epstein blamed the barricades that remained in front of his restaurant even after the Occupy Wall Street protestors were removed from Zuccotti Park.


“This is now the 12th straight week of the barricades,” he said.


The restaurant owner, who operates an eatery and catering business in Boston, said he pressed the city daily for their removal, but got nowhere.


Milk Street Cafe’s closure will result in the layoff of 70 workers. That’s on top of the 21 let go in October.


In recent days, Epstein tried to find resources to remain open, but in the end he couldn’t come up with the cash to keep the vast restaurant running.


“Everyone has to understand the consequences of their actions,” he said. “I have 90 plus people who put their faith in me. I feel horrible.”


When asked whether he would ever open a restaurant in New York again, Epstein responded, “Never.”

Los Angeles Mayor Tells Occupy Wall Street To Hit The Road

Politico.com:

Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa says Occupy LA protesters must leave their encampment on the lawn of City Hall by 12:01 a.m. Monday.


The mayor and police Chief Charlie Beck announced the planned ouster at a Friday afternoon news conference.


The mayor praised the protest and its aims but said the camp of about 485 tents is unsustainable and City Hall Park needs to be cleaned and restored.


Elected city leaders initially embraced the campers and the deadline to leave is a tactic that stands in stark contrast to middle-of-the-night police raids in other cities. Villaraigosa handed out plastic ponchos one rainy day. The City Council passed a resolution to support Occupy LA. Officials found an alternate site for a farmers market that the camp displaced.


But as Occupy Los Angeles entered its seventh week with no end in sight, the dialogue started getting strained.


City Hall still made friendly overtures, trying to make a deal with the activists by offering them 10,000 square feet of office space and empty lots for a garden if they would pack up their tents. Fallout after the proposal was made public and caused the deal to be rescinded.


As camps in other cities degenerated into unrest that led to mass arrests, Occupy L.A. has remained largely a peaceful commune. Police arrive on site only when called in to investigate petty crimes. Marches have resulted in about five spontaneous arrests — the other 70 or so involved protesters who deliberately got arrested to make a political statement.


The hands-off strategy perhaps underscores the liberal leanings of a city that has often been known for counterculture movements.

Video: 'Occupy San Diego' Honors Suspected White House Shooter with Moment of Silence

Newsbusters.org:

During the height of the Tea Party protests, the liberal media sought to hype any hint that the movement may turn violent against Democrats in general and President Obama in particular.


For example, Hardball's Chris Matthews famously blew up in August 2009 at a libertarian protester who legally carried a gun to a presidential townhall meeting in New Hampshire, suggesting it was wildly inappropriate "given the violent history of this country with regard to presidents and assassinations."


So it should be interesting to see what attention, if any, the mainstream media pays to Occupy San Diego honoring suspected White House shooter and likely Occupy DC participant Oscar Ramiro Ortega-Hernandez
