What gets me is this: the first city to do a thorough, blanket, knock-heads crackdown on the Occupiers is America's second most liberal major city (after San Francisco).
Granted, the mayor's trying like hell to turn parkland into penthouses, and he gives blatantly illegal preferential treatment to his buddies, but STILL.
Either Boston's reputation is ill-deserved (and I admit this may be the case), or one hell of a lot of voters have dropped the ball continuing to elect Mayor-for-Life Mumbles.
