NEWS

• Plaza to be Reoccupied, says Occupier Committee of Occupy San Diego
  • Press release cites laws that state that a place to sleep must be provided or city must allow sleeping on city property.
  • Please see the separate release.

Occupiers Plans To "Re-Occupy" Freedom Plaza Starting Saturday December 17, 2011.

We believe under the Illegal Lodging, 647(e) agreement filed 2/8/2011, 04 CV -2314 BEN, Exhibit "A" as well as "Training Bulletin SDPD, page 5 section II; 1., in conjunction with the federal court order giving persons the right to sleep in public space when no shelter beds are available (and it is rare to find such beds available), we have legal standing for our protest to remain in the plaza 24 hours a day and 7 days per week. Therefore we're lawfully re-occupying Freedom Plaza.

• I hear the reoccupation is going well but we must expect illegal raids by SDPD in wee hours of the morning.
• Need video documentation of any SDPD raid.
• Use this document to shield yourself against improper displacement by police.
