There are so many policemen around New York City now, in conjunction
with the World Economic Forum that it's unbelievable. Hundreds
surround every GAP, and Starbucks gets a good percentage.

But what were *five* vans of them doing in front of the New York
Public Library? Certainly they weren't "checking out" the literature.

I saw one poor protester. He was walking north up Fifth Avenue and
he had his sign partly hidden so that the police wouldn't see it.

He looked totally intimidated.

He seemed quite worried and his sign was partially folded over...

And, all it said was something like, "Please stop exploiting
people..."
