Here's the Video of Those Wall Streeters Drinking Champagne Above the Protest

We haven't heard from Riley in 18 hours, and fear for the safety of his Monopoly MacBook battery. While we await Waggaman's new dispatch from the Occupy Wall Street occupation, here's the actual video of the Wall Street suits literally drinking champagne and laughing from balconies while thousands of serious and determined protesters march below. The best thing about this video is knowing thecopssaw the Wall Streeters do this outrageous Marie Antoinette act. And whilesomeof the cops have been utter assholes,mostof the NYPD officers working the protest have been decent and good-humored -- and they're also part of public-sector unions, and they're also working class people, and they're also wrestling with collapsing home values and collapsing pensions and an intentionally destroyed infrastructure.

Let's all drink to the cops remembering the faces of everyone yukking it up and sipping champagne on this balcony. [ AnonOps ]
