Mockupy" Wall Street Protesters Occupy Law & Order:SVU @ FAKE Zuccotti Park set 12/9/11"We are a movement NOT a TV plot!"
I arrived with my HD camera at midnight 12/9/11 I arrived at the Law & Order Special Victims Unit "FAKE" Zuccotti Park tent city at Foley Square across from the Court House steps where 3 weeks earlier, 37,000 of us met and marched over the Brooklyn Bridge on #N17.
I asked the production assistant what was going on he said there was a shoot tomorrow morning and it had to do with this billionaire and a murder and 'coincidentally' the tent city looked exactly like Liberty Plaza repleet with library, kitchen, tents, signs, "We are the 99%" etc.
Soon, a couple of hundred jovial protesters arrived, passed by the Law & Order wooden barricade and streamed into the park, "The people's kitchen is open! The people's library is open!" all laughing and chanting passages from the Constitution.
Eventually, live stream told us that the producers had revoked their permit and the lawyers guild lawyer attorney (Both unsung heroes of OWS) told us that the cops had given us a warning and we had to leave or risk arrest.
We left, as the production assistants and NYPD dismantled the set.
