Here’s the link to the television news report on NY’s Channel 1 Local News. I think it’s from September 16, 2011.
Thanks to My Daily Issue for posting this.
Bloomberg starts talking at 21 seconds in.
Quote from Bloomberg:
“If they want to protest, we’ll be happy to make sure they have locations to do it. And as long as they do it where other people’s rights are respected, this is the place where people can speak their minds, and that’s what makes New York, New York.”

Bring flowers to the protest to give to police. Videotape everything. Police state mayor getting ready to protect corporate power and not the 1st Ammendment of the people.
Wow. That’s quite a protest when it’s authority-approved.
Well, I still thought it was a positive sign for the Mayor to acknowledge that there is a legal right to for people to speak their minds, instead of saying something negative.
