Court Support for Mike & Casey, Liberty City Arrestees. Pack the Court!

“Today, Casey and I had court for our arrests at Liberty City. Trial begins April 29, 9 am, room 112.

We want to pack the courtroom. What is at stake is the freedom to protest without government being able to say “that’s not a protest.” We want to challenge the ability of the state to use 647e, illegal lodging, in the commons. The law plainly states “without the permission of the owner” in it. Yet, this law has been used on public property to prevent homeless people from sheltering themselves. This law is used by cities to steal people’s possessions as “evidence of lodging” and once confiscated, are destroyed.”
