Occupy Boise

Granted there are only about a dozen occupy Boise members, but they are dedicated!  They are out there every night with their tents and blankets.  Of course, they clean up every morning (I don't know where they store those tents) and stand politely with signs all day.  The police have in no way attempted to disperse or harass them. *
Last night on the news, they showed a man bringing all of them dinner.  A reporter asked him, "So, you are here because you support occupy Boise?" 
"No," the man said, "I don't share their views.  However, this is America and as an American, I completely support their right to be out here protesting."
In my mind, I juxtapose that with what occupy Oakland has deteriorated to and once again, I thank my husband for dragging me, kicking and screaming, to this fabulous city.

*UPDATE:  The State Leglislature is meeting this week to discuss banning "camping" at the Capitol, a move obviously aimed at occupy Boise protestors.  Damn it, Boise!  Just when I think I am starting to fall for you, you pull some stupid shit like this!  When will I learn?
