Nearly Eighty Arrested in San Francisco During 'First Real Occupation' of 2012

Once the last major Occupy camps had been razed by police forces, pundits began to crow that the movement was finished.

Of course, once it became clear that thesis was not grounded in reality, the professional ponderers went on to wonder aloud (and in print) if occupations would still be a major part of the group's agenda. In other words: could Occupy still be Occupy without ongoing occupations?

An Occupy Wall Street action in San Francisco of between 100 and 300 activists achieved what New York Magazine calls "one of the first real occupations of 2012" when they took over a building belonging to the city Archdiocese. (photo via @OCongress)
