Yeah when the cops realize their pensions are gone, stolen, no retirement, nothing...then will progress occur or are they so brain-dead there is no point...perhaps we should pith them.
@rotagen5 It's unlikely to happen though. Despotisms will pay their 'soldiers' until there is no money left, and pay them quite handsomely. That IS the distinguishing feature of a despotism. The Military and policing apparatus are respected more and paid better in the society than a teacher poet, artist, farmer... perhaps even doctors and healers.
In California, a prison guard is paid better than a school teacher.
They cleaned up and bailed last night before the police moved in again. They are planning on other actions to assist foreclosed homeowners protect their homes.
There was minor damage... but the local Yellow Rag won't put it like that.
The Sheriffs showed up this morning to clear the campers around the courthouse and the Geodesic dome that was erected by the steps but the encampment in the park below the court house is safe at least until Jan 3 pending a Fed court hearing on the city injunction
@Death2Evil Read the uploader note. The still-unleased building is now surrounded by a chain link fence with a regular private security patrol and newly installed cameras.
@Death2Evil From a purely tactical perspective it's suicidal to try to hold ground... Just ask the Native Americans. Hit and run is the only option, and it works quite well. Just ask the Taliban, or the Viet Cong, or for that matter the Minutemen of the American Revolution.
@Death2Evil As far as the building's current state, the end result displaced a number of homeless people sleeping around the perimeter (including occasionally me), but I have no problem with the outcome. Every time someone looks at the building now they think about that occupation, and the waste of space, and a community center that could have been.
Agitprop, especially when the 'enemy' creates their own... Priceless.

Sorry Jackass
No suggestions of violence from either side of the story, and as soon as I get done typing this, no you. You've been blocked
