Occupy San Luis Obispo, CA — OccupySLO

Thanks for the headsup, man, pretty crazy.... As I said last night on the phone, though, unfortunately I wasn't surprised to hear about this since we seem to be becoming more and more of a police state every day. By not doing anything about it, we'll wake up one day under martial law and wonder, "How did it come to this?"

This is a list of local City and County Codes that was compiled by Mike O...

"Hi,

I have attempted to put together all the City, County Ordinance that might apply to us in regard to our
1. Exercise of continuous free speech at the Courthouse.
2. Our Marches and Rallies and protests.
It is possible that I might have missed something. I am not an attorney.

San Luis Obispo City has recently passed an "unruly gathering" ordinance (aimed at student parties,) that at some point I imagine they will attempt to use against us.

- Mike O."
