What’s noteworthy here is how the BPD attribute the mass arrests to the “camping ban” that the Wu administration introduced last year and the city council voted for. It was a bad policy when wielded against unhoused people and it’s now being wielded against student demonstrators.

@MilesPerHoward What’s also noteworthy is that when actual Nazis come to town to protest, they receive a dedicated escort & deferential treatment by the @bostonpolice !
@MilesPerHoward @CourtWatchMA In Fairbanks, Alaska, Occupy became really directly about camping rights and won some protections for the homeless, they're often the same issue.
@MilesPerHoward yeah i knew they were going to use that law
@MilesPerHoward @AspLovePolitics Perhaps you can invite the “unhoused” as you call them and the “student demonstrators” to your house? Might solve the problem of them needing a space to occupy.
