Melcor Property Developments, or: Hey, #Occupy, where do you want to set up next?
I would have expected a private company to move forward in evicting squatters faster than a local government - I wonder how that whole liability issue gets taken care of. How about it - care to explain how you're not liable if someone gets injured on your property?
I'm sure that since Melcor is happy to contain Occupy protesters without any fear of eviction, they'd be happy to supply the protesters with some other real estate to squat on - They provide a great list of possible #occupy spots in their Twitter feed (yes, thats it linked above).
If #OccupyCalgary gets booted out, perhaps you can check out Melcor's offices in Calgary!
From Twitter on 9/29: Melcor Developments is moving offices tomorrow in
Google Map to Melcor
It's close enough to downtown (hey, Eau Claire!), plus there's a bank at the same address (You don't like banks, right?), and also some Indian cuisine so you can celebrate your diversity, after all.
UPDATE: Melcor Inc. grew a pair, and is asking the City of Edmonton to evict protesters Sunday evening.
Of course, you get even more hilarity from 'occupiers' (I'd call them eminently stupid moronic turdbasters, but hey, that's just me) such as this:
“This is just another blatant example of how corporations are trying to shut the constitutional right of free assembly,” said Mahad Mohamed, another Occupy Edmonton participant.
Hey, Mahad, one thing: Your constitutional right of free assembly is valid - on public property. Private property? Deal with getting your butt hauled off by the cops after Melcor asks them to evict your sorry self. Last time I checked, if they don't want you on their property, they're well within their rights to get you removed.
UPDATE 2: Apparently the EPS has an aversion to doing their jobs.
I wonder if the city would just sit back if someone had an aversion to paying their taxes? Or maybe showed up to counter-protest this pack of idiots?
