For those of you aspiring Occupy
Wall Street-ers that are simply unsatisfied with protesting and want to take
things to, let’s say, “the next level” (wink), Gawker has published a helpful
map of the homes of Manhattan’s most opulent Upper East Side residents.
The
Draft Riots Totally Beat Occupy Wall Street
But
Certain Kinds of Millionaires (Kanye) Are Acceptable
The
Democratic Party Supports This Entirely
“Gawker’s Guide To
New York City’s 1%” is a handy dandy guide for all those seeking to emulate
the 1863
Draft Riots and really tear this city a new one.
“After weeks of literally protesting Wall Street,
Occupy Wall Street has realized that billionaire CEOs actually don't live in
lower Manhattan So they're headed uptown!” reads the article. It is
entirely unclear what Gawker expects the protesters to do once they make their
way uptown (wink) but they also have some recommendations as to when to make yourself
available to “protest.”
“Strangely the protests are occurring during the day when all these
billionaires are probably out of the house, busy stuffing wads of $100 bills
into burlap sacks.” The message is clear, wait till night when you can
really grab a millionaire’s, er, attention. Yeah, that’s the ticket.
Noticeably lacking from the article is any imploration to remain
peaceful. Yeah, that’s so three weeks ago. Just go nuts, you rabble you.
