If anyone is 'nattering', it's posts like yours.

You're worse than the let's-still-talk-about-Phaneuf crowd.
Where's the discussion? It's pestering over an issue you've admitted doesn't matter. What's the point?

This whole thing is lame.

Whatever this Cory guys motivation is, all he is doing is piggy backing of a lame cause to garner attention for himself. In turn, all he is doing, is just drawing more attention the the squatters cause he is protesting in the first place. He is protesting a bunch of powerless people, wasting their time with no real cause to speak of. He is wasting just as much time as they are.

It comes across as childish, and smarmy. You cannot tell me he is not doing this for some kind of personal gain.

The best answer would have been to just ignore these clowns from the get go, and do a 3 am raid to clean them out. With as few people as there was down there, they could have done it in 15 minutes with a couple dozen police officers.

lol Squatters getting the best of wimpy Nenshi. I can just imagine his frowning pouting face looking down from his office floor. With his arms crossed like a 3yr old "The snow and cold temp would were suppose get rid of them".

The namby pamby, jellyfish, cream puff ways of a Nenshi. Its great.

The discussion is that First Lady's husband is assumed to be doing this for his own political motives. She hasn't denied it, desepite repeatedly being called out on it and dancing around the issue.

There's the discussion.

Are you blind?

Are you 12 years old? You certainly act like it.

Sound cannon being deployed at #OWS. Cover your ears, get cotton or earplugs in your ears NOW.
I don't think that the Police own a sound cannon,

Maybe they're so high that they're mistaking a car with a horn as a sound canon

The city is not going to use it downtown to break up a bunch of hippies.

Rumor has it that Cory is the one who pooped on the ground.

And you've said yourself that it really doesn't matter, so drop it already. We are all aware of their political ties, the point has been made, does it really have to be made over and over and over again?

You keep poking and proding her thinking you'll get the answer you want. Let it go and move on.

Well, is First Lady giving direct enough responses?

I want to know if her husband is doing this for political reasons. She keeps dodging a clear answer.

It's a perfectly valid question to ask. Although it may be a lost cause since she's a politician herself.

That pretty much sums up the entire last few pages.

She answered it but you don't like the response. Move on!

Why? It's already been conceded that the answer to the question is irrelevant.

It's a pretty simple lesson you can learn from this OWS failure. Focus on something that matters and maybe you can have some kind of impact. Irrelevant nattering does not constitute a discussion.

When? She said it's not for his office, but didn't confirm nor deny that it was simply to challenge Nenshi, among other political reasons.

Docking one answer off a list of multiple answers does not give you an answer.

I'm not moving on until we get a clear answer. Deal with it.

I think #OWS is Occupy Wall Street...it's entirely possible the NYC police own one. Highly unlikely in my view, but they just might.
