Occupy protests do not end before May.

How would you define "end"? Without a coherent leadership OWS cannot formally declare themselves finished. The most likely "end" for OWS will be that most of the protesters go home while a few stragglers will stick around for years.

That's a good point. Maybe there's a problem with my concept of "end" as it relates to OWS protests.

I expect them to continue to be common and happen a bunch (as much as they're happening now or more) at least until May. After that, who knows...
