Rep. Eric Watson continues his Occupy eviction push:
House Judiciary Chairman Eric Watson, who has a clear view of the 60-or-so tents from his office window, is sponsoring the legislation. He mentioned several reasons for wanting the encampment gone, including a couple last year having sex near his windows.
"A fight broke out yesterday," he said in a Wednesday interview, "and there was a guy streaking today, running out here naked."
But he said the main reason for the bill was to ensure equal access to the plaza for other groups, including schools that put on musical programs there.
"They've been reluctant to come up here. We've even had weddings put off," Watson said.
