Devil’s Night Peasants Visit Slumlord Stewart Beal
"Hark! Let it be known that on this 30th of October – Devil’s Night – we, the peasants of so-called Ypsilanti, have declared that we have HAD ENOUGH of landlords! The peasants have united to declare to Stewart Beal, Ypsi’s own Scrooge McSlumlord, that he is not welcome in our town.
To Stewart Beal, we say: FUCKETH YOU. No amount of wealth can protect you from our wrath.
...
The Ghosts of Christmas Past gave Scrooge a second chance, but the Ghosts of Devil’s Night and Halloween do not. Beal will know no comfort until he abandons his properties and makes reparations for his crimes. The peasants, renters, rough sleepers, toilers, and caretakers all live DESPITE what the city, police, and lords do to us– not BECAUSE of what they do for us. We do not need them. Until they are thrown off and everything they have stolen has been reclaimed… Every night can be Devil’s Night."

During one of the threatened GOP government shutdowns, they tried to tell DC they could not spend their own money even to pick up the trash. The result was a call for all DC residents to dump their trash on the Speaker of the House's lawn instead that week. At the last minute an agreement was reached to avoid the shutdown-and that garbage dump plan may have played a role in making the Speaker willing to listen to others,
When I was part of the campaign against vivisector Huntindon Life Sciences(HJLS), we quite commonly celebrated Halloween with home demos. For some reason we never thought to invoke Devil's Night, but we quite routinely warned that anywhere we had to go ALF might follow.
A trio of these protests at the home of a single Goldman-Sachs official set into motion a chain of events that forced HLS's main lender at that time Fortress to call in their loans and divest. US Bank wrote new loans, but HLS was then $20 million in net debt with all their assets "securing" this underwater loan. This was the beginning of the end for HLS.
