Costs of Freedom to Trash Mount in L.A.

LOS ANGELES (CBS) — The City of Los Angeles reportedly faces millions of dollars in expenses brought about by the Occupy LA movement. City agencies have been ordered to calculate what was spent on the Occupy LA protests. Repairs to City Hall’s lawn where the Occupy group set up camp on Oct. 1 will require an estimated $400,000. The police action to clear out the encampment on Nov. 30 cost more than $700,000. Additional expenses are attributed to hauling away debris from the camp, and cleaning up graffiti that defaced City Hall marble walls and trees. Mayor Villaraigosa says more budget cuts will be necessary to offset the costs. Read full story here: News New Mexico

Perhaps municipal judges in LA should incarcerate protestors, who broke the law,and allow them an opportunity to have their jail time reduced by volunteering to clean up after themselves and their fellow vermin.
