It's so easy to play the game of disorder.

They were so hoping for disorder that when the authorities backed off out of fear of disorder, they managed to generate disorder anyway.

The cleanup of the Lower Manhattan park that has been occupied by protesters for nearly a month was postponed Friday shortly before it was supposed to begin, averting a feared showdown between the police and demonstrators who had vowed to resist any efforts to evict them from their encampment.

But sporadic clashes between protesters and the police erupted anyway when demonstrators started marching through the winding streets of the financial district after learning that the cleanup had been called off. At least 14 were arrested, the police say.

Isn't that sweet?

(And there's a video at the link that cracked us up. That people's microphone thing is hilarious.)
