Bloomberg Attacks OWS - But We Return To Zuccotti

Nov 15, 2011 Under cover of night, like some stealthy criminal, the billionaire mayor sent in his police department to evict peaceful protestors. Using the phony pretext of health and safety but actually trampling on constitutional rights of peaceful assembly and free speech, Bloomberg and other mayors, acting on behalf of the One Percent, still have not realized: You can't evict an idea whose time has come. These films and photos were taken later that afternoon, as the activists and their allies returned victorious to Zuccotti Park.

At about 3 pm, the park was re-occupied by people. They replace Bloomberg's cops who had evicted them in the dark of the preceding night. There was tumultuous and joyful applause and chants as the park was returned to the protesters demanding economic justice and a new direction for the country. Press Play > to watch the video.
