Letter to Alex 5
*****************
" trespassing is the word
yes its public space
but public access was
temporarily suspended,
that was clear-
lots of warning,
fences and police lines..
public access suspended
to public space is not exactly
martial law

when police stretch out
yellow crime scene tape
// public access suspended
when a funeral procession passes
// public access suspended
when the parks dept cuts the grass
// public access suspended
when some public agency posts
" no swimming
// public access suspended
when a city posts no dogs allowed,,// they are targeting a species
when a park posts
"no loitering after dark
// public access suspended
...after sundown..

etc etc etc

when people, whoever they are
decide they are going to
force access
to a closed access public area
they should reasonably expect
a big hassle.
If they walked on a
" don;t walk on the grass"
area of a park
they would reasonably expect
a citation

When 10,000 people decides
to swarm a restricted access zone
they know is restricted access
they should reasonably expect
to meet up with
organized civic response resistance= aka: the cops
and they did =and they got spanked for their trouble

I note the parts of
downtown Toronto
that were
temporarily designated
public access suspended areas
are now fully accessible..
shop with confidence, 24-7

Anarchists are even
welcomed back into
McDonalds, Starbucks &the Gap
with their fresh new
front window glass
= no hard feelings
