The mood in Zuccotti Park was somber. I heard someone mutter that everyone is so tense today. Another young woman was angry about the chaos. Rules aren’t being followed; people are putting their sleeping bags over the white lines and blocking the walkways. And all the while, tourists are arriving in droves, snapping pictures of the scene or even of themselves, smiling in front of blue tarps.
thank you for the close-up
I’m glad I went. The news from Oakland probably had an affect on the mood that day.
