The latest news is this hilariously Orwellian letter from the police

I don't know of any building occupations, the last I heard they were still occupying various parks in Atlanta, as they get thrown out of one they move to another. I think Occupy Athens is dead, but my news is out of date.

So I'm sure that everyone is aware that attempts to occupy buildings are being met with arrests.  I'm wondering if anyone knows of a building occupation that has been successfully defended thus far?

So the Washington State Capitol building has been occupied.  I'm trying to get a good feed of this but I can't find anything!  Will post more news as soon as it develops.

That's pretty brilliant.

Occupy DC is still in town, but the talks of evicting them have started.

Occupy Protesters plan to occupy the American tear gas plant that has been supplying the corrupt Egyptian military junta. Heck yes.

Occupy L.A. is suppose to get evicted Sunday night. I wonder how that is going to go.

After 42 days, Occupy Edmonton was evicted today.  Now the question on our minds, and on the minds of many camps around the world that are facing similar consequences, is "what's next?"  Where does this movement go from here, and how do we prevent this from turning into "feel-good" marches that gather crowds, but have no long term vision?  Should we start occupying buildings?  Should we even maybe start purchasing buildings legally and turning them into collectively run non-heirarchical workplaces?  Occupy Wall Street (in New York) has half a million dollars in donations.  What should this money be used for?  

I'm interested in having this diaglogue with the people here, and maybe hearing the experiences of your own camps, and if they're still up.

Have you ever been pepper sprayed or been to jail? They both suck. There's nothing wrong with not wanting either of those things to happen to you.
Not wanting these things to happen to you doesn't mean you have to stand by and take pictures. And I just said, it would have made it harder for the cops, not that expected it from everybody. But if you're not going to do anything against what's happening out of fear, it looks different than what those people are doing with their cameras and phones. At least to me.

That's pretty nuts. I see the importance of cameras in gaining evidence to sue the pants off the cops but dunno what to think of this wall-of-iPhones. The way the cop flourishes the spray is like he's about to perform a magic trick.
