#encampment — Public Fediverse posts

I loved growing up at the Grange Fair and Encampment in Centre Hall. It was a magical place for a child. 1973. #grange #grangefair #grangefairandencampment #encampment #glamping #theoriginalglamping #ferriswheel #ferriswheelphoto #ferriswheelphotos #helicopters #foodstand #foodstands #midway #themidway #walkingthemidway #fairtime #fairgoers #fairgoer #frequentfairgoer #1970s #familyfun #familyouting #funouting #outing #summerouting #summeroutings #vacation #vacations #holiday #holidays

During my youth, the Blanket Stand was always the first game of chance one encountered upon entering the Grange Fair and Encampment in Centre Hall.

As a child, I enjoyed hanging out with my cousins at the Grange Fair in Centre Hall, at the end of every summer.

My favorite part of summer as a child was going to the Grange Fair and Encampment in Centre Hall with my Grandmother and her family. 1973. #grange #grangefair #grangefairs #grangers #encampment #camping #glamping #campout #tent #tenting #tents #rides #amusements #pretzels #candy #cottencandy #gamesofchance #stands #fairgrounds #centrehall #centrecounty #endofsummer #harvest #harvesthome #harvesttime #family

When I was a toddler, we were allowed to climb on all the farm implements displayed at the Grange Fair, as though they were jungle gyms. Or was this "Madmen-esque" memory implanted in me as a screen to cover an alien abduction?

The Grange Fair and Encampment in Centre Hall was my Nana's and my vacation destination at the end of every summer in my childhood. We stayed at Aunt Ida's house, and could walk to the fairgrounds. 1973. #grangefair #grangefairandencampment #encampment #fair #fairs #countyfair #countyfairs #regionalfair #regionalfairs #centrecounty #pennsylvania #fun #summerfun #harvestfun #tradition #traditional #traditions #vacation #vacations #holiday #holidays #grandmother #nana #aunt #aunts

HB 2880: #Banning #protest encampments on campus

Would bar protest encampments on the campuses of state colleges and universities without prior authorization. Under the bill, individuals or groups that establish an unauthorized “encampment” would no longer be lawfully present on campus for the purpose of speech protections under Arizona law; they would be criminally liable to prosecution for trespass and damaging public property; and they would be liable for “direct and indirect costs” of any damage “that resulted from the individual’s intentional or negligent conduct relating” to the encampment. The bill defines “#encampment” as “temporary shelter” installed on campus and used to stay overnight or “for a prolonged period of time.” The bill would require colleges and universities to order individuals to dismantle and vacate unauthorized encampments; if the individuals refuse to comply, the institution would be required to take disciplinary action and report the individuals to local law enforcement for trespassing. The bill's sponsor said that it was motivated by #ProPalestine protests on college campuses.

HB 2007: Harsh penalties for protesters who conceal their identity

**Note: HB 2007 was signed into law following amendments that removed the most restrictive provisions.** As originally introduced in the House, the bill made it a felony to wear any kind of #disguise at a protest. The introduced bill broadly prohibited disguises, "whether partial or complete," that an individual wore at a protest, political event, or any other public event in order "to evade or escape discovery, recognition or identification." Under the introduced bill, police would have had authority to detain any individual wearing a disguise in order to verify his or her identity and determine if the person had committed a crime; violation of the disguise ban would have been a Class 6 felony, subject to one year in prison. The sponsor of the bill said it was inspired by clashes between police and protesters, some of whom were masked, outside a 2017 rally for President #Trump. Following widespread criticism, the bill was comprehensively revised to a single provision that would allow courts to consider it an aggravating factor, for sentencing purposes, if an individual wore a #mask or other disguise to hide their face while committing a criminal offense.

Full bill text here: https://apps.azleg.gov/BillStatus/BillOverview/69619

Status: enacted with improvements

Introduced 21 Nov 2017; Governor Ducey signed it 23 March 2018 but the most problematic provisions were defeated.

My Grandmother, my Father, and I all grew up attending the Grange Fair and Encampment in Centre Hall each year. Our tent, circa 1918. #grangefair #grangefairandencampment #encampment #centrehall #centrecounty #pennsylvania #tradition #traditions #family #families #tenting

[Audio] #NYC #police used #force to clear a #antiGenocide #student #encampment at #Columbia.

#Police zip-tied the hands of large numbers of #student #protesters and hauled them away. An #armored #vehicle pushed a #bridge into a window of #HamiltonHall and then #officers quickly retook the #building.
