Occupy DC won’t be driven from their filthy, rat-infested encampments, you fascists

From Daily Caller

It’ll take more than exasperated politicians and appeals to institute rudimentary sanitary practices to stop the violent, dimwitted dirtballs of Occupy DC from ruining public spaces for everybody else. And they even put out a press release about it. Isn’t that cute? They can’t clean up after themselves, but they can put out a press release justifying it…

Occupy DC Is Not Leaving McPherson Square, Will Not Cave to Mayor Gray’s Political Posturing

Mayor Gray’s call for the National Park Service to unconstitutionally evict Occupy DC is more dangerous than the problems it would purportedly solve.

As Bill Line with the National Parks Service helpfully reiterated for Mayor Gray, Occupy DC is being treated as a 24-hour vigil, which the Park Service cannot shut down. “First Amendment rights and free speech rights are what are at issue here,” Line said to WTOP.

The DC Department of Health memo that Mayor Gray has cited to justify eviction of the encampment recommends a different course of action: “working together to develop a monitoring and public education plan to reduce the risk of these concerns…” It is unclear why the Mayor’s recommendation contradicts that of a team of sanitation experts.

Occupy DC will gladly work with the city, as we have worked with the Park Service from day one, to address sanitation and health concerns while maintaining the encampment in McPherson Square. Rats and sanitation are a citywide problem, and Occupy DC will be happy to resolve them in our camp.
