Yeah, you want to go in and make sure they get hurt
now.
Sorry, undue cynicism.
An occupy protest was "cleared" in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia, a week or two ago. 50 protesters and two cops treated in hospital. One cop needed his eyes flushed (most likely wayward pepper spray, police issue only, oops).
Here's a more modest proposal.
The protest has two locations, and must swap back and forth. Three days here, three days there. Maybe a week.
It would stop it from becoming a homeless refuge, without stifling dissent.
