Occupy Nashville protestors strike camp
Nashville Business Journal ^ | 3/9/12

Members of Occupy Nashville have apparently heeded the new law that would have evicted them from War Memorial Plaza overnight.

Gov. Bill Haslam originally signed the new law a week ago, but Occupy Nashville members were given a week to comply. A handful of tents remained on the plaza Thursday, but WSMV Ch. 4 reports that the last remaining protestors packed up their belonging overnight.

Occupy Nashville was camped out on the plaza for more than four months. Under the new law, those who camp on state property that is not properly designated can face a $2,500 fine, a year in jail or both.

Can you imagine the smell of these parasites after 6 months camping out like the homeless? Idiots.

Glad the Vanderbilt students came and got their tents back.

They might need them for Spring Break.

They have been sitting their empty for months.

What if you camped out in protest and nobody cared?

What if Soros paid you to camp out in protest and still nobody cared?
