Thursday the NYPD in conjunction with the Fire Dept. seized all generators from the occupation at Liberty Plaza despite predictions of freezing temperatures and snow.

1. If anyone dies because of this
If anyone dies, the people who ordered it and carried out those orders are murderers. Plain and simple.

2. That's just awful, that the cops would do such a thing
I guess they don't realize that OWS is on their side, doing this for them! I am so amazed at the protestors determination and my prayers are with them, they are definitely making a difference, the country is taking notice.

3. They stole the generators BECAUSE of predications of freezing temps
Despite freezing temperatures my ass! They're deliberately trying to freeze out OWS! Whoever ordered and carried out this theft ought to pay for their crimes!

5. Everything you need to know how to make "hot Ice" (reusable Heat pack) vinegar and baking soda
This is non toxic, reusable, and a good way to try to stay warm cheaply.

12. Thanks for posting the shipping address.
Yesterday I cleaned closets and have some very good coats that no longer fit me. I'll find a box today and ship them to NYC.
Might be able to find gloves and hats too.

10. Armed robbery
