      @Newyorkist To put in perspective, is there any potential NYPD commissioner who would've said anything different?

      @mtracey I'd presume so, yes. It's a extremely eyebrow raising comment, even in canon of extremely eyebrow raising comments from the like

      @Newyorkist @mtracey Thing is, Bratton might have police clear out a park... would he pepper spray them? Would he beat them? Jail them?

      @brianvan @mtracey likely, yes. How else would he clear the park?

      @Newyorkist @mtracey Peacefully? Calm arrests and fast desk-appearance tickets after dispersal? Seizing and properly cataloging property?

      @mtracey @Newyorkist 1. The police can peacefully disperse non-violent crowds 2.There isn't a law anywhere that gave OWS squatting rights

      @brianvan @Newyorkist The encampment persisted initially precisely because there was no law against it. The **eviction** was unlawful.

          @mtracey @Newyorkist I don't think there was much force of law in letting them stay. Can the city not clear out public spaces?

          @brianvan @Newyorkist The city had no legal right to clear out a privately owned public space; Bloomberg defied a court order in doing so.

          @mtracey @Newyorkist but protesters can't claim suppression after a couple of nights in the park. Within reason they've had their protest

          @mtracey @Newyorkist The city does, and ought to, have control over public space. What it does not have is right to political suppression
