Let me guess...Port Authority influence?

And why Ellis Island? Photo Op for his Presidential run?

Fuck that, the crook needs to keep the hell out of my state. I hope Cuomo didn't okay this.

They aren't 'occupying' anything, they are protesting.

But still, it's a good use of protest time and energy so go for it!

"Where's Occupy? They gave up and disappeared!

Oh, there they are. They should change their name so it seems like they disappeared!"
