Critics Plan Protests, Civil Disobedience to Halt Arena

Is Mikey P owner yet? Does that happen sometime this month? Next?

Hopefully the protests will cause the Judge to speed up the evictions and convictions, if necessary.

It will only give Barclays more free publicity.

Since Delay, Don’t Develop Brooklyn has officially failed, the protesters will become a national laughing stock – much like the Nets.

Expect TV coverage of the Wrecking Ball and Bulldozer activities.

@TWilliam
Don’t be surprised if next week we hear word that the NBA secretly just approved Proky to be an NBA owner.

Then Proky could send one of his Lieutenants to this Joyous event.

I don’t think Proky would sign the final papers (for majority control of team and Barclays) until he witnesses Daniel Goldstein’s Condo get Leveled, but at least he could conduct Nets business once approved by NBA.

These are crazy. They are blatanly lying to themselves and insanly trying to fool others. They state that they doubt the project will go through ok then why you need to protest. Also they are pissing some pretty powerful people off. I hate to see the careers of some the people involved such as James and Montgomery after this. They have seen the last of their career aspirations. Ashamed to see one of their borugh council elected I went to school with and is frat brothers with him. . soon the true liars and trouble makerswill be evicted and Possibly convicted.

The house I am living in was once owned by an owner of a CBA basketball team from around 1994 (the pre-DLeague). After the team and he declared for bankruptcy, he was evicted when the police came and had his possessions moved onto the front lawn. I think he got the message, especially after they had the locks to the property changed.

In this case they would just move the possessions onto the Barclays construction lot.

As much as I would like to come to to that protest, I can’t because I am working on that day and I am needed where I work. Maybe if it was later on that day or on one I wasn’t working, I would have came. However, I do wish the best of luck to DDDB for their protest even if I can’t be there. This is proof that I do not skip my daily life to attend this if they coincide with my job, and yest I do actually have a job, so that debunks a stereotype on me on claiming that I don’t work. BTW, if any of you are going there, you might have the chance to ask Goldstein on what he does when he is not fighting this project and he will gladly tell you what he does at any other time. For the record, I do remember that he was not present at the last court hearing, which had Judge Gerges and I was there myself.

Criminals.

It is GUARANTEED that there will be more union construction workers at the ground breaking than protestors.

The pictures that will be shown especially by Tracy Collins [aka threece on Flickr] will do the talking, and I do know he will be there taking them.

And?

The protesters at first seemed ok and all, but now it’s just sad. It’s like when hippies don’t like the rules/laws set by our leaders… Get over it already.

These people are clowns its time to take off the BIG RED NOSE AND THE BIG SHOES.

The new site is really awesome. I never knew SB nation existed and have found some really good other blog sites. I did however like netsdaily being independant because it was unique but good for the site. Anyway the union construction workers will be cheering way louder than the protestors. Jobs are very important at this time period and DDDB has no chance. If this was 5 years ago maybe , DDDB would get some more help but the public will not go against job creation.

Wow to the new NetsDaily!

Love the new pic of the Brooklyn . The only thing you should put up is the old logo of the ABA Nets..on a side note can you please find out if the Nets can change there name to the BROOKLYN NETS before the start of next season

Again, I will be unable to attend this event, but I do wish those that will be there the best of luck even if I can’t be there myself. I don’t finish until 3 PM on Thursday and it will be probably be done by the time I am finished. There is only one other person where I work, so I am needed a lot there. It’s not that I don’t want to go, because if this was later on that day or on a day I wasn’t working, then I would be there. Even if I would miss some work by calling the office on that, my pay would be docked, and I do need that pay. I apologize for being unable to attend.

Wow, I really need a rally or a protest. It’s been like since the 60’s that I felt a really good vibe in protesting, man. I wish I could just stop all the hate and violence and earthquakes and stuff and just give everyone their homes back! But they won’t let me out of my self imposed looney bin. I mean I actually claimed there were thousands who were affected and that there would be no jobs created! Boy, what was I thinking? If 50 people show up, I’d be shocked! Hope they sing Joan Baez, too!

They have every right to protest this plan as some of you here have to support it. Either way, it’s their property and they have no intentions to sell it. Why is it so wrong to say no to a developer in a transaction? Would any of you do the same if it was your property or just agree to sell because you don’t see any other choice? As for the claim that it will create jobs or be some public benefit, I want actual proof and not some talking point said by Ratner, Markowitz, Bloomberg, or any of their cronies. Sometimes I don’t understand why some entries sink so low to people like Goldstein by even attacking his private issues such as taxes and family life. That almost reminds me of those that attack the WNBA, and money still do things like that to make it look bad. Then again, some of here still ride Ratner’s myths like the anti-Israel myths that many still tend to believe despite how many times that they have been prooven. Again, if they are really against developement on the rail yards, I would like to see a quote comming out their mouth claiming that and not from someone else who believes that.
