QuoteYesterday, the Oakland Police deployed hundreds of officers in riot gear so as to prevent Occupy Oakland from putting a building, vacant for 6 years with no plans for use, from being occupied and “re-purposed” as a community center. The Occupy Oakland GA passed a proposal calling for the space to be turned into a social center, convergence center and headquarters of the Occupy Oakland movement. The police actions tonight cost the city of Oakland hundreds of thousands of dollars, and they repeatedly violated their own crowd control guidelines and protesters civil rights. With all the problems in our city, should preventing activists from putting a vacant building to better use be their highest priority?

kelpdiver 2 #2 January 30, 2012 "Whatever qualms people have with Occupy Oakland, it's the police who have committed the most egregious violence," said Scott Johnson, a 34-year-old Oakland resident. "They instigated the violence by not allowing us to take over an unused building."

muff528 3 #3 January 30, 2012 Surely at least a couple of members of the Occupy Party are property owners. Maybe they could offer their homes or business places to serve as party HQ. They could even rotate the meeting place among themselves to keep from placing a burden on one or two members. We did that with an organization I belonged to and it worked out very well. Just a suggestion. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The 'occupiers' are nothing more than a blight on our society. They try to justify their cause, whatever that is, by squatting homes and buldings. They are nothing more than an organized group of criminals and need to be treated as such. Instead of calling police, someone needs to call ORKIN!!Chuck Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dreamdancer 0 #9 January 30, 2012 QuoteIn many countries, squatting is in itself a crime; in others, it is only seen as a civil conflict between the owner and the occupants. Property law and the state have traditionally favored the property owner. However, in many cases where squatters had de facto ownership, laws have been changed to legitimize their status. Squatters often claim rights over the spaces they have squatted by virtue of occupation, rather than ownership; in this sense, squatting is similar to (and potentially a necessary condition of) adverse possession, by which a possessor of real property without title may eventually gain legal title to the real property. Anarchist Colin Ward comments: "Squatting is the oldest mode of tenure in the world, and we are all descended from squatters. This is as true of the Queen [of the United Kingdom] with her 176,000 acres (710 km2) as it is of the 54 percent of householders in Britain who are owner-occupiers. They are all the ultimate recipients of stolen land, for to regard our planet as a commodity offends every conceivable principle of natural rights." Besides being residences, some squats are used as social centres or host give-away shops, pirate radio stations or cafés. In Spanish-speaking countries, squatters receive several names, such as okupas in Spain, Chile or Argentina (from the verb ocupar meaning "to occupy"), or paracaidistas in Mexico (meaning "paratroopers", because they "parachute" themselves at unoccupied land). http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Squattingstay away from moving propellers - they bite blue skies from thai sky adventures good solid response-provoking keyboarding Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This squatting thing is not just a problem with the low-life occupiers. Fort Worth, Texas is having a big problem with squatters taking ownership of high-end homes. A house is picked out by a squatter. The owners leave for the day only to come home to someone taking-up residence in the home. The squatter files legal paper work for the home and the home becomes theirs. This is happening all over this country. Chuck Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
