NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) – Saturday’s snow storm made life in Zuccotti Park miserable for Occupy Wall Street protesters.

Demonstrators were left drenched with rain and then snow as the storm moved through the region. Central Park set a record for both the date and the month of October with 2.9 inches of snow.

Those camping out in the park have been stockpiling donated blankets, scarves, coats and have been trying to get more tents, cots and tarps.

Look at all the free learning they’re getting for when they don’t get that woman’s study degree and they really have to live on the street. Maybe they’ll get some up close advice from the homeless people that are butting in on their free food for some free food.

I believe God is making His feelings pretty clear about OWS!

Hey, God, it’s me. I hear those OWS guys are mocking you, saying that this storm is a pathetic joke and that you don’t have the guts to throw anything stronger at them.

Just sayin’.

Amen.

Featured comment:

“They’re asking for donations of warm clothing, blankets, etc. that at this time of the year would usually be going to the poor and homeless. Of course, they made it clear earlier this week that the homeless were not welcome in their free food lines. Looks like there is a hierarchy of the 99 percent.”

LOL

And something else great to read aloud would be Jack London’s “To Build a Fire”.

They HAVE the money...instead they choose to BEG/ASK for money which is separate from their own funds.


Sounds like the Ted Kennedy way.

“I keep LOL at the comments! They’re a hoot. CBS is a lefty org and surprised so many sane people are vocally against these leeches.”

I’m repeatedly encouraged by the comments section of various outlets. I think America is much better off than we’re led to believe, patriot-wise.

Other OWS satellites around the US are struggling.

Once somebody cuts the head off the snake (Zuccotti Park), this sucker is history.
