Brookfield Properties has recently received a 2.4 million dollar grant to clear out their Privately Owned Public Space (POPS) at Zucotti Park. NYPD doesn’t want to be involved for PR reasons, so Brookfield has contracted Hazell Security LTD to remove the protesters.
We need two teams of 20-24 to help with the job. We’re looking for able-bodied men ages 22-45 with experience in dealing with crowds/riots/insurgencies. Prior criminal convictions are not a problem. Pay is 1200 under the table for the whole job plus a 200 dollar equipment/clothing stipend. Facemasks to be provided. Please no labels visible on anything. No talking to the press.
Thursday night we meet for a quick runthrough, then Friday night we do a clean sweep. Automatic assumption of resistance is in effect, so feel free to throw your weight around a bit. None of them are going to miss a tooth BUT PLEASE NO PUNCTURE WOUNDS.
Please message ASAP. Include age, weight, specific experience, and material/equipment requests. Keep in mind that this is the kind of job that requires some enthusiasm.
Edit – only 8 or so slots left

Subject: Hired muscle needed to break up Occupy Wall Street (Downtown)Greetings!
I am writing in reply to your ad; Hired muscle needed to break up Occupy Wall Street (Downtown)
I am an able bodied 27 year old. Currently 224lbs.I have experience as security at night clubs in Brooklyn and one in the city. I am a combat veteran of the U.S. Marine Corps. I have experience in aiding with the dispersion of crowds and tour of duty in Iraq dealing with insurgencies. Furthermore, I have no problem with not talking to the press.
Aside from the face masks will any protective gear be provided, or is that what the stipend is to cover? I await your reply and look forward to Thursday night.

Subject: Hired muscle needed to break up Occupy Wall Street (Downtown)Good morning,
I’m a 38 year old United States Marine Corps Veteran. Served with the Security Force Battalion out of Norfolk, VA. Pass experience with green peace protesters and over seas duties including Somalia with the 15th MEU. I was also a bounty hunter for [redacted]. I’m 6′-3″ and weigh 210 lbs. I’m fully capable of this project without causing any harm to civilians. I know how to get the job done right. Equipment needed is a riot shield, helmet with shield, kevlar gloves, possibly tie wraps, wire cutters (in case protesters tie themselves to an object or themselves and possibly bolt cutters for chain and locks (to be kept near premises). I’ve toured the site and they seem to have quite a bit of equipment there like clothing, water, food…etc. They seem to be in for the long haul. Please consider me for your selection process. Thank you,

Subject: Hired muscle needed to break up Occupy Wall Street (Downtown)Saw your job opening on Craigslist.org. The opening for hired muscle to take care of those protesters? I’m height weight proportionate (6’5, 260 pounds), I’ve studied Krav Maga and I was born and raised in the school of hard knocks (the Bronx) and that’s experience enough. Supply me with a baton and some mace and I’ll clear them out real quick.
