1) We can assure you that we haven't needed to do homework in a long time
2) Thank you for your reasoned answer. This statement "...with no regards for proper sanitation and other factors" reveals, however, that you've not looked at media coverage of these protests critically. Having been to several encampments (some of our members were skeptical of them), we can tell you that a great deal was done to maintain health and safety. When, as has been documented even in by MSM, police began sending released criminals and unfortunate people with psych. problems to the camps, this became harder to do, but the tireless, often inspirational efforts of these protesters to deal with even this have not been recognized by the MSM.
3) Protest has never worked if it has been convenient. City ordinances requiring permits, or restricting protesters to certain spaces, are not necessarily constitutional, and we're sure courts have said as much in the past. If you can help us find that precedent, thank you. If not, even as we value your lesson in electoral politics, please know that we've given that lesson before. We're now joining those who would vote, yes, but who would also take other steps to raise public consciousness and affect political change.
