"NYC arrest records: Many Occupy Wall Street protesters live in luxury"

Many “Occupy Wall Street” protesters arrested in New York City “occupy” more luxurious homes than their “99 percent” rhetoric might suggest, a Daily Caller investigation has found. For each of the 984 Occupy Wall Street protesters arrested in New York City between September 18 and October 15, police collected and filed an information sheet recording the arrestee’s name, age, sex, criminal charge, home address and — in most cases — race. The Daily Caller has obtained all of this information from a source in the New York City government. Among addresses for which information is available, single-family homes listed on those police intake forms have a median value of $305,000 — a far higher number than the $185,400 median value of owner-occupied housing units in the United States. Some of the homes where “Occupy” arrestees reside, viewed through Google Maps and the Multiple Listing Service real estate database, are the definition of opulence. The median monthly rent for those living in apartments whose information is readily available is $1,850. Of the 984 protesters arrested, at least 797 are white. The median age of “Occupy” protesters taken into custody is 27 years.

^ I knew this whole "movement" was a sham. These protesters claim to be the 99% and are fighting against the 1% wealthy and now we learn the facts are that most are the 1% wealthy. I think these are people with too much time on their hands who want their 15 minutes of fame. The whole Occupy group has no set goals or demands. It would be one thing if they had a united statement and things they wanted to see done in order for them to claim victory, but I haven't seen any such thing throughout the country and the world. ^
