According to the article, the "barricades" put up by the Law Enforcement remained long after Zucarotti Park was cleared. He asked the city officials to remove them, and they didn't. Business never returned.

RIGHTSPIN = "Occupy Wall Street put restaurant out of business"

So, the reason the barricades are there was because the Corrupt Political Elite demands their slaves not be allowed to free speech and right to protest. But, when it comes time to RIGHTSPIN, you jump a few middle steps and "blame the homeowners for their foreclosure". Just like Corporate Merica has taught you.


The barricades were up due to OWS protestors protesting in the streets of New York, which they continued to do after being cleared from Zuccotti Park. Also, he was losing business well beforehand as he let people go as early as October. Just as when the Occupy movement protested and blocked out ports on the West Coast, all they really did was keep blue collar workers from earning a day's pay. There are consequences to their actions. Their prolonged protests hurt businesses while they themselves did nothing to help the local small business owners by buying anything from them. Instead, they dirtied up their restrooms because they thought they were entitled to do whatever they pleased wherever they pleased.
