building the margins

  where will it all end?

Mother Jones has a story about the denial from NYC for the protest march on Sunday to end in a rally in Central Park.

I agree that the march organizers need to designate an ending location for the march... but I also think that Bloomberg is being ridiculously partisan by not allowing the march to end at Central Park (supposedly because he's worried about protestors trampling the grass.)

C'mon Bloomberg... you brought this on by letting the ruling party in to the city to play for a week... the least you can do is let the protesters have Central Park for a couple of hours.
 
Comments:
It will probably end in riots and mayhem...hopefully the RNC doesn't spin it too hard against us.

Should make for some fun television, though.
