Two people are due in Boston Municipal Court this morning after they were arrested at Occupy Boston in the latest round of busts at the Dewey Square tent city, authorities said.The other person was arrested for challenging others in the tent city to fight him. So we have someone selling prescription drugs and another person acting in a belligerent manner. This follows the mass crackdown on the illegal encampment a few weeks back, as well as other minor skirmishes along the lines. This is the group that Elizabeth Warren wants to claim for her own... Of course, the OWS apologists are out in force, claiming that everyone arrested was not from the group. Seems they're not thrilled about being associated with drug users, unlicensed pharmacists, and out-of-work pugilists...
Martina Martin, 41, is charged with distribution of a Class C substance for allegedly selling prescription sedatives at the Dewey Square spot, according to the Suffolk County District Attorney’s Office.
You know, just like the Tea Party.
That is all.

Man, I am so glad I don't work downtown anymore. (Although if I'd had time I would have gone to Occupy Orlando just to take pictures.)
As it is, all I can hear is my blog daughter Nancy, talking to Sweet Daughter:
[Nancy] What do we do when we see a hippie?
[Sweet daughter] Point and laugh! Point and laugh!
[laughs uproariously at the dirty hippies]
Open letter to Boston Mayor Tom Menino: The activities taking place under the guise of citizen protest no longer meet the definition of the phrase "peaceably to assemble". Kindly take your capricious and highly selective respect and adoration of our Bill of Rights, stick it where the sun don't shine, and send in the bulldozers. Your tacit approval of this mob's illicit behavior has caused enough damage and cost the taxpayers plenty. It's time to end it.
They're a mob, pure and simple - each doing as he or she pleases, with no one responsible or accountable for their actions and no leadership to be taken to task for the group.
Why they should be permitted to "occupy" public property -- when everybody else needs to get a police permit for any sort of demonstration at all -- is beyond me. This is lawlessness, and the authorities are catering to it.
My hat's off to the first 2012 politician who tells it like it is: "I am not the 99%, and neither are you."
