Occupy occtrocities: More evictions edition

Occupy Chicago
I have many stories about Occupy evictions or upcoming evictions. It's time to amend a popular OWS chant and make it, "Whose streets--not our streets!"

Sexual assaults at Occupy camps have been a big problem. As you will see in my related post, Occupy Saginaw is holding a rally in support of rape victims. But will Michiganders occupiers have anything to say about Occupy rape victims? See my related post for that story.

Former Democratic congressman Joe Sestak will appear at a fundraiser for an occupier who is running for Congress. He was defeated in his run for the US Senate two years ago. Now the real Sestak is coming out for all to see.

Sestak is a complete and utter fraud, but I giggled a litle bit at the Occupier because it was running against Allyson Schwartz: the Nancy Pelosi of the east coast.
