45. First, and foremost, OIC has a permit that allows them to camp through the end of February...
...which I'm not 100% sure on this but I believe the only Occupy protest to have this. Eviction is a non-issue. OIC has a very good working relationship with the city. How many camps have a port-o-let? I've been there a bunch of times and the only police presence I have seen is when a couple of the homeless who are camping with OIC got into a bit of a fracas. The police were gone in five minutes. Aside from the usual "get a job" and "dirty hippies" catcalls, there has been very little incidents of trouble. Man. Even on Thanksgiving people were yelling that shit. Believe that? But it must be a nice feeling to hit your tent everynight and not have to worry that your head is going to be busted in like the big city camps have.
