Even a 'sit in' to be legitimate needs to occupy the space of the thing they are protesting about and do it with whatever they walked in with.
In Vancouver they are occupying the art gallery, unless they are protesting post modern design that is not a legitimate site to protest anything beyond an afternoon

If they're handing any of that Michael Godard crap, I'll join the occupy movement til all of his art is burned in a hobo barrel
