As you know, if you've been following the news, Centennial Olympic Park in downtown Atlanta has been "home" for the Occupy: Atlanta protesters as they attempted to figure out exactly what to protest.(That seemed to change day-to-day and, occasionally hour-to-hour.) While Mayor Kasim Reed was trying to deal with the protesters, he's been dealing with a second group of "protesters" in the form of residents and business owners who demanded that he oust the Occupy: Atlanta protesters. Just one problem: he couldn't legally do that. The one law that would have allowed him to put them out had been rendered void when he signed an Executive Order allowing them to stay in the park during the over night hours. Fast forward to yesterday - Monday, October 24th - when Mayor Reed stated that he was going to rescind the previous Executive Order due to an illegal concert held over the weekend. Now, get this, Operation Push is demanding the Mayor's ouster because of what the term "too strong of a police presence". Mr. Mayor, may I make a suggestion? While you're putting the Occupy: Atlanta protesters, kick out Operation Push too!
