Occupy Nashville protesters received an unexpected reprieve Thursday, but the group nevertheless said it is prepping for another confrontation that would challenge the state’s power to oust its camp from the grounds of the Tennessee Capitol.

politicsOWS Defy Police in Oakland, Comply in DC
Meanwhile, protestors in McPhereson Square and Freedom Park in Washington, D.C., peacefully defied a no-camping order set to go into effect on Monday morning. A bit of semantics is involved here: protestors are allowed to hold 24-hour vigils in city parks, but not to sleep there, and so by removing many of their tents and other sleeping arrangements, the group was able to comply with the order while remaining in the park. Officials have stated that the demonstrators are complying with the request, and there were no reports of violence.

politicsGay marriage proponent who urged halt to Prop. 8 enforcement dies
"Derence Kernek and Ed Watson became prominent faces in the California gay community's campaign for the right to marry when they urged a federal appeals court earlier this year to halt the enforcement of Proposition 8 so they could wed before Watson succumbed to advancing illness.
On the eve of a Thursday hearing on challenges to a 2010 ruling that the voter initiative banning same-sex marriage is unconstitutional, Watson died at age 78 of complications from Alzheimer's disease, diabetes and hypertension."
