Following the middle of the night raid on OWS protesters at Zuccotti park, a judge has issued a restraining order in favor of the protesters.
They plan to return, but there is a hearing in a couple of hours that will decide whether or not their protest can continue.
It will continue regardless, but if the city decides to use legal means to prevent it, there will likely be violent confrontations.
You can sign a petition to Mayor Bloomberg asking him to allow the protest to continue at:
-
It angers me that we would even think we should have to petition Bloomberg to allow the exercise of First Amendment rights.

Anger is a good thing. It moves people.
Group Description
In a world where the forces that perpetuate racial, social, political, gender, and economic inequality are beginning to fracture... In a world where repression and greed have been the rule for too long... In a world where ordinary people have access to communication in unprecedented numbers, we have come to a threshold.
Step over that threshold.
All over the world, people are beginning to understand there is power in numbers… That they need no longer stand aside and let the few and the wealthy control the destiny of all.
This is where you can begin to speak your mind. Say it aloud in a hundred different ways. Say it in your own voice, in your own way, "We are the 99%. And we will take control of our own destiny."
Join your voices to those who Occupy and overcome.
We also speak who only write… and sometimes even louder.
This is a public group.
Anyone can see it and join.
