Where?



On the news they mentioned a few places around the city and Queens.
My guess is downtown, mid-town and probably near the precinct where the cops worked. But those are just guesses.

Re: I heard there is going to be protestors today

I think I heard they are started around 3pm and they hope to mess up rush hour. Got this from the channel 7 website.

The protests will be held at:

# One Police Plaza, with Sharpton, Nicole Paultre Bell, Joseph Guzman and Trent Benefield
# Varick and Houston Street, with Hazel Dukes, NAACP and labor leaders
# 125th Street and Third Avenue
# Third Avenue and 60th Street
# 34th Street and Park Avenue
# House of Lord Church, 415 Atlantic Avenue in Brooklyn

All of the locations are near major bridges and streets that are prone to traffic tie-ups even without a demonstration.

"We're trying to tie up the city on a moderate way," Sharpton said. "This is not the shutdown."

Glad I am leaving early today, even though I am nowhere near those areas - this makes me very nervous.

Can't wait for the big "shut down" I will be home for that definitely.

No plans yet. I bet he is waiting to see how today turns out.

There was supposed to be a march last Monday by my job ( I am in Jamaica ) and maybe twenty people showed up to walk with him so I think he is feeling it out first.

Fantastic.

I support the right to peacefully protest, too, but I am worried about having to walk through a huge protest on my way to Penn Station tonight... They don't always remain peaceful.

That's all well and good, but when it means it takes me 3 hours to get home after working a 12 hour day .........it's slightly aggravating -

Re: I heard there is going to be protestors today

I had heard on hot 97 that they are looking for people to get arrested and if you plan on going that might be a possibility. I don't really get the point of this protest, what will be accomplished because of it!?

I do too as long as they don't interfere with my commute.

I'm sure I'll hear the Herald Square one if they're there.

Re: I heard there is going to be protestors today

You know what I don't understand... Sharpton obviously has something against cops.

So what is he doing? Planning on protesting and disrupting the city.

All this is going to do is give the cops more overtime and basically pad their pockets. I am sure the cops love the overtime and could care less about the protests.

Real smart Al.
