Angry 'Occupy' Protesters Plan to Take It to the Streets, as Some Threaten Violence
Published November 16, 2011 | Associated Press

NEW YORK – Organizers of protests and marches Thursday in New York City for the two-month anniversary of the Occupy Wall Street movement are calling for non-violent demonstrations, but that hasn't stopped some protesters from demanding a fiery confrontation with authorities.

"On the 17th, we’re going to burn New York City to the ground," one protester can be heard saying in video recorded after the protesters' home base, Zuccotti Park, was cleared Tuesday.

“No more talking. They’ve got guns, we’ve got bottles. They’ve got bricks, we’ve got rocks…in a few days you’re going to see what a Molotov cocktail can do to Macy’s," the unidentified man spouted in the video.

"On the 17th, we’re going to burn New York City to the ground,"

In the words of famous New Yorker Bugs Bunny. "Ahhhh Shudddup!"

I hope and suspect this is just so much talk.

If not, however, I hope the authorities and the public are prepared to deal with them appropriately.

You mean by shoving them in front of the subway trains they’re trying to disrupt? I’ll do my civic duty ;-)

This is a concerted effort. The occupoops in L.A. are planning to shut down the 110 Freeway tomorrow morning starting at rush hour. :-(

Zuccotti Park protester Nkrumah Tinsley arrested after threatening to burn down city

Urges Molotov coctail strike on Macy’s

A protester was arrested in Zuccotti Park Wednesday after he threatened to fire bomb the city — and his rant went viral on YouTube, police said.

Nkrumah Tinsley, 29, was busted after cops saw a video of him claiming he would torch the city during Thursday’s mass protest posted online, police said.

“On the 17th (of Nov.), we’re going to burn New York City to the f-—ing ground,” an angry Tinsley told a crowd of demonstrators in the video posted on Tuesday.

“In a few days, you’re going to see what a Molotov coctail can do to Macy’s.”

When officers from the NYPD’s intelligence division saw the video, they immediately began working on trying to identify the raging man, police said.

“We didn’t want him out there [Thursday\]. We wanted him in our custody,” said Paul Browne, top spokesman for the NYPD. “He was specific as to date, location and method for the fire bombing ...maybe it was just a rant, but we didn’t want to take that chance.”
