Protestors Of Occupy SLO Here To Stay



San Luis Obispo, CA -- The county has asked members of the Occupy SLO movement, who have been camped in front of the county courthouse in downtown San Luis Obispo for nearly two weeks, to clear out at night, but protesters say they aren’t going anyplace. John Jefferson, one of a handful of people present yesterday to protest the inequality of wealth distribution in the U.S., told The Tribune, “There will be more people here tonight.”

County Administrator Jim Grant has told protesters they are welcome to demonstrate between 7 a.m. and 10 p.m., but must stop camping between 10 p.m. and 7 a.m. Grant also told them to stop urinating and defecating on the grounds, discharging waste, and using electricity and water from county buildings.
