"Deeply concerned" police sergeants are coming out swinging today against obnoxious Wall Street protesters, saying they plan to "pursue legal action" against demonstrators who injure any of its members.

I’d go with country music - the twangier the better.

Now he is starting in on car horns. He really hates this city.
