31. Check out Argentina, where they did the same thing. This is not a new tactic at all, and in

many places it has succeeded. Argentinians took over abandoned factories, after the Global Capitalists shut them down, driving people into poverty. They ended up in many cases winning their legal battles to continue to run them, providing jobs the government was either not interested in doing, or unable to do.

Many of these ideas OWS is implementing were studied by various groups in the movement and are excelllent ideas. In one US city, a building has been donated to the Occupiers and they are now renovating it and creating a community center for the homeless and conducting their own business there. They have so many donations from when they were in the park, they had to ask people to stop donating for a while.

I love how this one incident was jumped on by all the rightwing blogs, including Breitbart, naturally, and how the left, as always, abandons their own as soon as the right starts smearing them. Nothing will ever be accomplished by the left until they get over their fear of the mockery of the useless rightwing morons whose stupid opinions for some reason, mean more to some on the left, than anything else.
