2. Woke up a few Bostonians, certainly
Now let's see if they respond by swelling the ranks of Occupy Boston.

3. Bostonians are an interesting people.
Edited on Tue Oct-11-11 06:59 AM by unhappycamper
We are steeped in history and we are very proud of the five men killed in the Boston Massacre as well as the Boston Tea Party.

I suspect the 'night raid' is going to piss more people off.

6. We had around a thousand students show up at Dewey Square yesterday after a march
Boston Common. (I'll post pix in a bit.)

My suggest is for everyone to come on down!

4. What I mourn about Boston was gentrification.
I had already moved away, but by the time I heard Boston had basically junked its rent control laws protecting its poorest, I figured the city was moving in a direction I wouldn't follow. Much love and support to the protesters in Boston.

7. Well they certainly did not learn from Bloomberg
as the most recent history.

You are right, thank you cops.

8. Why are you thanking the police? The action wasn't their call.
They were doing what they were ordered to do, but by whom?
