I just wonder how long they would have stayed on Government property if they had been a group of Christians having a prayer vigil and displaying a cross. The atheists would have been foaming at the mouth until they were gone. If these Occupy nuts would spend as much time volunteering at a local charity as they do trying to sound intelligent then maybe some people would y

That place has turned into nothing but a homesless camp. I'd be willing to wager that if you asked those people what the "Occupy..." movement was not one of them would be able to give you a correct answer.

Time to remove them, and use force if needed. If this had been any other group (girl scouts and boy scouts included), the city would have sent the SWAT team to move them a long time ago.

Buy some land and get a special use permit for camping. Its time for them to go, they have had their lil eyesore campsite long enough. If they want to protest, do it from their homes, or drive to the place/event they are protesting. The city has been more than cooperative with them, its time to move on.
