but, if they want to pick and choose what laws to break, i guess they can't be surprised when they get arrested. i didn't know trespassing and destruction of property were misdemeanors.

I didn't say they were. They clearly are not, which is why the non-violent Occupy doesn't support them. Put it this way: the Lawyer's Guild, who has been helping out all the Occupy protesters arrested for civil disobedience, may let them be on their own for that.
There is a vast difference between peaceful non-violent civil disobedience and breaking and entering, destroying property, taking over private property.

or do they get their bad guy brothers to take all that heat while they stand by and claim innocence? but they'll move in after the hard work is done?

Yeah, that's it. They are all hoping for violent anarchy. Like the Occupy protesters that just Friday were attacked by the police with pepper spray, yet lifted not one finger to defend themselves. Like the estimated 15,000 non-violent and peaceful protesters in New York, on the Brooklyn Bridge, last Thursday. Oh, wait - the media sorta ignored that. I think CBS evening news reported that event as, "200 or so people here in the park, it's dead here"
Right now, there is an Official Occupy drum circle (I hate drum circles, they are cruel and unusual punishment) on the edge of Central Park, near Mayer Michael Bloombergs townhouse. They are paying him back for his attention and devotion to Zuccotti park. !0:00pm is curfew. Will the protesters be rousted? Here's the live feed:
