Things are getting interesting for Occupy Detroit. New signs have been posted in the park where they are camping that say the park closes at 10 pm. Apparently their permit was not granted for 60 days, but only 30 days and that is up Monday night. Their park is along the Detroit Thanksgiving Parade route and is a key place for grandstands and I suspect that is the motivation for getting them out next week. Apparently they've been offered the use of a building by a union for an indoor occupation through winter, which is pretty cool. They had an emergency meeting last night which was on livestream and it was pretty interesting to see. Police showed up in riot gear but just surrounded them and left when the meeting ended.
