Democracy looks like: Poor People Locked Out, or Locked Up!

Needless to say, Bloomberg was not too happy to be exposed in front of all his friends and the media as an elitist fraud who refuses to dialogue with low-income communities of color, and eight protesters from various RTTC groups were arrested.

While we're angry that folks were arrested and put through the system for engaging in nonviolent direct action, the overzealous response just shows how scared and vulnerable the administration is. And the fact that it's all over the news this morning is even more evidence. 
In fact, according to Google News, this protest was referenced in 48 articles and stories... from the Wall Street Journal to Newsday to New York 1 to AlterNet!

New York City is heating up - this is just the beginning.
