Subject: Occupy Picksburgh Vows to 'Seize' Mellon Green

Faced with an eviction notice from BNY Mellon Bank, the OGS (Occupy Grant Street) group in Picksburgh has announced that they are going to ignore the eviction notice, and instead seize privately-owned Mellon Green and rename it.
The air will be thick with tear gas, my friends. Picksburgh cops don't mess around, a lesson I thought that people learned after the Picksburgh G20 Summit a couple a years ago. They'll probably first come out with the directional high-decibel sound guns and then mop up with the tear gas.
Wish I still worked downtown, I'm gonna miss out on the action.
