I wasn't the one who made the original claim, it was me asking for one. It does not work like that.
Actually I quoted you saying they were taxpayers.. If you are going to ask others to source their claims, then dont be surprised when you get asked to do the same.

Public libraries are also publicly owned. Are you telling me you should be able to access them 24/7, or go in and take books from them because you want them?
Where do you think you can do whatever the hell you want, just because the public owns it?

Then why not answer my question?:

The city leaders made the laws that SCOTUS has upheld that the Occupiers were violating (like the permit process for long-term and intrusive public demonstrations, and time limits on use of public parks). What law(s) did the police and city leaders violate?
Which is DETERMINED by the local government that maintains the space.
Camping is not a usual activity in a public square.

This is the mentality of the far Left/OWS commies, socialists, anarchists and anti-capitalists.
Come to think of it, how can people who spend all of their time standing around in a park 24/7, possibly be a taxpayer? Protesting isnt a business, and doesnt come with a salary..

No, it's not the same. Nice troll attempt, though.
The Occupy movement is not trying to take over buildings. And, for the most part, they stay in one spot.

I am doing what you do.
Maybe if you did not dodge everything thrown your way people would take you more seriously.

Unless you are a hypocrite and have a 9-5 job working for the corporate fascists you hate in the day time then camping at the park at night and thinking you are some great revolutionary!!
Or if you have a secret (or not so secret) backer, like a labor union, let's say?
