The two-month-old shantytown that was the symbolic heart of the Occupy Wall Street movement is no more — and the NYPD vows it won’t rise again. After an overnight raid razed the tent city in Zuccotti Park early Tuesday, Manhattan Supreme Court Justice Michael Stallman upheld the city’s right to enforce “reasonable” rules to maintain safety and hygiene. He said the protesters may have a right to free speech, but they had not demonstrated a First Amendment right to camp. By evening, the city began letting protesters back into the park — but barred them from bringing any tents, tarps or gear.

Although most demonstrators complied, a group of around 200 or 300 people refused, locking their arms together in the middle of the park. They were eventually detained after a tense standoff that saw police use pepper spray and hit protesters with batons. OWS witness: Brutal lockdown in Zuccotti Park to fuel new protests.

Since then, Occupy Wall Street has become a national and even international symbol – with similarly styled occupations popping up in cities and towns across America and around the world. A growing popular movement has significantly altered the national narrative about our economy, our democracy, and our future. Late into last night, we on the Occupy Wall Street PR team were reflecting on the successes, challenges and the aims of our movement up to this point.

" It also stressed that "the journalists were either wearing press credentials or explained to police that they were reporters covering the protests," and argued, "they were clearly exercising the constitutional right of a free press...it is clear now that many journalists have been erroneously arrested without cause.
