#Occupy OKC Shut Down After Remaining Hoboes Get Drunk & Beat Security Guard

As Nancy Pelosi would say – “God bless them.”

The Oklahoma City Police Department shut down the #Occupy OKC squatters camp tonight after they discovered that only homeless people were camping there. It didn’t help that the hoboes all got drunk and beat their self-appointed security guard.
News OK reported:

According to a police report, officers were called to the park about 1:45 a.m. A transient who had been staying at the camp overnight said he was working security for the camp when other transients staying at the camp ransacked the encampment and threw chairs and trash cans at him after getting drunk.

Pictures taken by police show chairs, tables and trash cans overturned with food and other garbage strewed about.

No one was arrested, but a pregnant woman at the camp was taken to a hospital after complaining of stomach pains.

SandRidge had initially been granted permission to close all of Kerr Park starting Monday as part of a demolition phase of their construction project, but city officials worked with them to allow half the park to remain open. But even the open portion of the park would be dirty and noisy, rendering it unsuitable for the protesters’ use, Berry said.

Because of that and evidence that only known homeless people have been camping in the park of late, officials decided not to renew the permit, Berry said.

“I don’t know if the transients are part of the group or not. It’s kind of hard to tell,” Berry said.”There’s nobody really camping out. My people tell me that, at most, there are two to three people (camping out) overnight … and they’ve been able to identify most of those persons as simply just homeless people. There’s no longer any on-site responsible party for the park after hours.”

Congratulations #Occupy OKC.
You only had one protester die in a tent in your two months of squatting at the park and you ended your run with a good old-fashioned hobo fight.
Democrats must be very proud.

Raising a glass to the prospect that the 2012 dnc convention is a mirror of the occupee-er OKC failure. In Jim’s words, “a good old-fashioned hobo fight.”

…classic line that sums up the Occupoopers perfectly.

Now that #OWS has pretty much fizzled out, I wonder what the next brilliant “Obama” plan will be.

This is the current state of the democrat party. Not

Only will resignations and retirements abound.

Many rats fleeing a sinking Obama presidency.

Seems the first black affirmative inaction zero is

Really hurting the dem party, I think he’s gutted

The dem party. Lil Barry has donea great service

To America and destroyed a destructive democrat

Party. Powder is dry

The real reason they don’t want to abandon Afghanistan is, because of the Exxon Mobile’s pipeline pumping oil from Afghanistan. George Bush Jr. brags he went to Iraq for the oil, to show off to his affluent friends. So instead of half the national deficit, we have it double, they want to build permanent bases in Iraq and Afghanistan, so big oil, and the Republican’s can get rich. So why do they want to make Afghanistan a permanent duty station so they can protect the interest’s of big oil and the pipeline, before they started drilling and pumping oil out of Afghanistan, the country was considered the largest untapped oil resource in the world. They don’t talk much about the pipeline now because the Billionaire’s and corporations have silence everyone. I don’t vote and support neither party, nor will I be a registered voter, ever, because I never register to vote. George Bush Jr and the Republican party wanted to control the oil infrastructure of Iraq, and Afghanistan to enrich themselves, Billions traded for the corporations, while America accumulated Trillions in national debt, not such a good trade off, but it was for 1% of the population. The people of Afghanistan live simple lives as farmers and ranchers, living off of mountain goats, and sheep’s, and simple crops, too stupid to realize what they have an abundant source of natural resources that they do not benefit from, while Hamid Karzai hordes over 100 Billion in secret accounts for himself. The people of Afghanistan use horses and donkeys, and pick up trucks, as their main weapons, while military contractor’s keep building new weapon system’s for themselves and get richer, America goes down hill in debt. China owns 11% of the national debt, and Japan owns 10% and they are over 200% over GDP in national debt. So who owns most of the national debt Private Security Firms profiting off the national debt of the U.S. They want to go to war with Iran that will cost the U.S. 90 Billion a year, instead of executing precision strikes. Like Iraq, they always have known, since they have too much oil, no economic sanction will work, and only by declaring a full scale war can they actually bring about change.The real reason they don’t want to abandon Afghanistan is, because of the Exxon Mobile’s pipeline pumping oil from Afghanistan.

I was in the downtown area yesterday and drove by the park – the group was very small and they were not in a high traffic area. But then, getting around downtown is a challenge these days.

Let’s see – a 50 story office tower for Devon Energy is nearing completion of the exterior portion of the construction, Sandridge Energy is taking over four buildings, renovating & some new construction, Contential Resources is moving its headquarters to OKC after buying the Devon building and the city is spending money on a 4 year plan to update the traffic flow, walkways, parks, plazas and the Myriad Garden area. Oh, and MAPS 3 has 8 projects in the planning stage. Just a bit further north, there is construction at the Cheseapeake Energy campus.

So, I don’t think too many people have been paying attention to these folks at the park. We’ve been too busy working here.

One positive point is that they have been paying the daily permit fee and having the required porta potties at the site.

I think Danny is trying to tell us something, but George Bush Jr. has put one of those Texas mind-melds on him and is controlling his thoughts.
Could be he just has a snootful and just keeps repeating himself through his keyboard.
Crow for us Danny then go sober up.

Funny, I was online watching the livestream of the occupy and saw none of what you reported here. Give it a try, tune in to the livestreaming coverage of various occupy locations to see what is actually happening.

Maybe if Devon and everyone else wasn’t just hiring illegal aliens there would be some jobs for these protesters- get over yourselves OKC- this economy sucks worse than the rest of the country because there has NEVER been any jobs here. Just keep hiring illegal aliens to mow your yards and serve you breakfast until you end up on Medicare costing us 10,000 a month.
47,000 factories were shut down under Bush and his destructive killing policies.

p.s. I believe Oklahoma is still primarily made up of Democrats even though you loudmouths would like to believe otherwise. They just aren’t screaming lies, so you don’t notice them.

Maybe you should send real reporters to do your stories. If you did, you would know that they have not shut down Occupy OKC, it is scheduled to happen tonight…. two full days after your article. There really is an encampment, not just a bunch of homeless people. No fact checks at all in this article, so you are nothing but Wanna-Be journalists! And to some of the other posters: Occupiers don’t like Democrats, either, so you have something in common.
