and they are not happy. We need (not making this up)
- port-a-johns (did not out number the protestors)
- a bigger "stash" of food
- and electric generators
- and entertainment
- up lifting music
From an "undercover reporter" (like restaurant reviewers, apparently, they go undercover so that they don't get any special treatment and can accurately review the hospitality and dining experience of a given protest). Occupy Cleveland is NOT getting any Michelin stars from this reviewer of OccupyCleveland:
There was no food supply planned except for a small stash they were giving away after the first hour. They were Tweeting throughout the day that they were accepting food handouts donations. We were grateful for our free Anarchist Apples and Che Cheetos and lounged around on a blanket for an impromptu picnic...The only restroom facilities available were in the Federal building across the street. We were told they “had to let us in” as long as we had an ID.
...
On that walk back to the parking lot, my friend and I reflected on the huge contrast between this group of protesters and those at the Tea Parties. Even though Tea Party members are angry and frustrated with the government and taxes and a host of other issues at times, the rallies are overwhelmingly uplifting and positive events. They are hopeful and focus on positive solutions. Even the music is designed to inspire and encourage. #OccupyCleveland, in contrast, was the opposite. It was depressing, negative, unfocused, and offered no solutions. Add mindlessly boring to the list as well. There’s nothing worse than a completely unplanned, day-long open mic program.
