Well, that's not really how it works. The maximum fine in Norman for disturbing the peace is $750 and the maximum jail time is 60 days. That is the WORST which can happen to you for that crime and is almost never the result. Norman doesn't want to spend money locking up petty criminals.

If charged at the state court level, about the most serious charge I could think of would be this:

OSCN Found Document:Entry into Restricted Area - Disruptive Conduct - Obstruction - Acts of Physical Violence - Penalty - Prosecution

--still a misdemeanor, but up to a year in jail and a $1,000 fine might change the calculus.

In any event, if someone thinks it's worth doing the time for the crime, that's the cost society exacts. No more, probably a lot less. That's our version of a criminal justice system.
