OWS Day of Action: Storm Wall Street disguised in … business suits; Update
Hot Air ^ | 11-17-11 | Ed Morrissey

So this has been the marketing strategy for Mens Wearhouse all along, huh?

The “day of action” is to begin early, with protesters converging on Wall Street camouflaged in business suits hoping to blend in with office workers trooping out of the subway.

“We will rise from beneath. They can’t stop all of us. It’s going to get crazy,” vowed one organizer. “They took the first shot Tuesday night. [Thursday] we return fire. We will be peaceful, but we will resist.”

The city said it was bracing for tens of thousands of people in the streets.

“The protesters are calling for a massive event aimed at disrupting major parts of the city,” said Howard Wolfson, deputy mayor for governmental affairs. “We will be prepared for that.”

I just checked it out on Google Maps. Zucotti Park is a good 4-5 miles south of Macy’s, so I wouldn’t worry. You can bet the NYPD and the city will be watching the fools on T-Day. NO WAY will they want a disruption of the parade while millions are watching on national TV...especially with all the kids.

They really are uninspired lame ass revolutionaries.

They break a window now and then, then regroup over macchiatos in Starbucks.

Resist we much, lol. They are going to attack innocent New York citizens, but only in the nicest possible way. Got it.
