The headline for this post was lifted from the front page above-the-fold of today's Denver Post. The story says that the Occupiers have cost the 99% of the rest of Denver's citizens hundreds of thousands of dollars, and the police department is asking for a $6,000,000 budget increase. Overtime costs for various departments of the city were $365,000 for just the last five days of October! Of course, police response times to other non-occupier calls has slowed. I assume it is a great time to be a batterer or a thief.
