Waiting.
That system of laws is alone calculated to maintain civil liberty, which leaves the citizen entirely master of his own conduct, except in those points in which the public good requires some direction and restraint. When a man is restrained in his natural liberty by no municipal laws but those which are requisite to prevent his violating the natural law, and to promote the greatest moral and physical welfare of the community, he is legally possessed of the fullest enjoyment of his civil rights of individual liberty. But it must not be inferred that individuals are to judge for themselves how far the law may justifiably restrict their individual liberty; for it is necessary to the welfare of the commonwealth, that the law should be obeyed; and thence is derived the legal maxim, that no man may be wiser than the law.

I added this to that last post late:
What rights have been infringed upon? Freedom of being aromatically pleasing? The right to not get sick from a dirty environment? If somebody doesn't want to go there and risk getting sick, then don't go there. There are plenty of other occupy protests that don't have that many people confined so tightly and actually have portapotties.
Can you point out to me where in the Constitution it says that "when a citizen or group of citizens infringes upon another citizen, their rights are nullified"?
As far as I know, there's nothing in the Constitution that grants the right to live "healthy". If you don't want to get sick, don't go there.
