Occupy Portland was a mess Dee. Rat infestations, lice outbreaks, herion dens (tents) popping up. It's a public safety concern. The police and city officials are in a difficult situation because can't stand back and let this continue due to health and safety reasons, but if they evict these people from parks, busses, etc there is conflict. It is what it is.
Count me in with the 99% who is annoyed and feels these people are actually the .099% and they do not represent me.
