how am i exactly supposed to do that, they don't just sit there in the open.
i need some pointers, motherfukkas!!
1.) Go to Home Depot. Get a crowbar.
2.) Get a day bus pass or a loaned bike, skateboard.
3.) Spend a day scouting everywhere. Check by railroad tracks, check in industrial areas. Check lower income areas. (though use a little caution in Chicago, some dangerous neighborhoods I've heard) Find an abandoned house or wherehouse, old factory, any building really. In any city you WILL find one, though may or may not be accessible. Probably will be though!
4.) Go back at night. Break in.
5.) Don't fuck it up. Don't vandalize. Don't get endlessly shitfaced with dozens of people you invite over. Keep the numbers on the low end of who comes in. Have a bucket for shit/ piss or just go in the backyard if it's ok, depends on your situation. This is just my advice though if you want it to keep going. Even if you are only staying a week or whatever, why fuck it up?
Squatting isn't really hard to do for a little bit of time, though keeping a squat is what's tricky. I made mine last 2 months.
GOOD LUCK!
