Coffee cart owner Linda Jenson and hot dog cart operators Letty and Pete Soto said they initially provided free food and drink to demonstrators" at San Diego's Obamaville encampment, reports Los Angeles's KNX-AM. "But when they stopped, the protesters became violent":
According to one city councilman, bodily fluids were used in the attacks.
"Both carts have had items stolen, have had their covers vandalized with markings and graffiti, as well as one of the carts had urine and blood splattered on it," said Councilman Carl DeMaio. . . .
In addition to the attacks, the vendors also said they recently received death threats.
The New York Post reports on a similar situation at the original Obamaville, in Manhattan's Financial District:
"I've been told, 'Watch your back!' 10 times," Stacey Tzortzatos, owner of Panini & Co. Breads, located across from Zuccotti Park, told The Post yesterday.
She and her employees are terrified by the constant threats, which she said began after she demanded the protesters stop using her shop's restroom as a place to bathe every day.
The final straw came about two weeks ago, when the demonstrators broke a bathroom sink, flooding the shop, and clogged the toilet--setting her back $3,000 in damages. . . .
And on Friday, she said, a crazed squatter burst into the shop and demanded that workers fill a 10-gallon container of water.
When they refused, "he banged it on the ground and started yelling" and threatened the staff, she said. "He said he was entitled to have it for free."

If I were a shop owner, they might do that once, but the second time they’d be talking to a shotgun, and “Barry” would be receiving a few less votes.

Correct in your assessment of the situation. spread the word that the Occupy movement is a vile bunch of extortionists.
Agree. That’s what it is. The scum thug “Protestors” were instructed by the organizers of this idiocy to create a scene to draw attention to an otherwise ignorable exercise, to get the Press, the MSM attention. The job of the thugs is to make it seem the “protest” is a huge event across the Nation, that the entire country is pro Socialist.
It’s totally a scam.
Where’s President Obama on this? Why doesn’t he speak out?
Couldn’t he at least say the protesters acted stupidly?
My recollection is that the only connection to a violence-advocating group headed by Tom Metzger was that they listened to and read Metzger's vitriolic rantings.
My recollection is that the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC), et al. used that connection to file civil lawsuits against Metzger and his group. SPLC won a judgement in the millions of dollars.
The murderers were not converts.. they were already violent skinheads.
So how come the leaders of "the Establishment" like Obama, et al. can't be similarly held accountable for encouraging hatred, violence, rapes, pillaging, economic destruction of innocents, and all manner of wrong-doing?
“Correct in your assessment of the situation. spread the word that the Occupy movement is a vile bunch of extortionists.”
A perfect summary of Big Government and Big Welfare generally.
