I support this movement, but let us not trump on other citizens constitutional rights while you are using your constitutional rights..Be respectful to property around you, if you damage any property then the Occupy movement should pay to repair what your people have done. Do not hurt small businesses around you, like the horror stories I have heard about in Oakland, demonstrate away from small business area as to not affect the working class people you are trying to support! All I am saying! You will have more support if you act responsible and are respectful!

The entire Occupy movement should come down to DC and camp in Anacostia Park, site of the original Bonus March Encampment in 1932. Do what the Bonus Marchers did. Set up a clean, formal encampment. I'm sure there are enough sponsors who will pay for potties and showers.

Then, every day, all those at the encampment should get up at 6:30 a.m. and march down Maryland Avenue to the Capitol and spend the day visiting their Senators and Representatives. Every day until they get something done, like a nationwide Section 8 subsidy program so that everyone pays 1/3 of their monthly income for housing.

Let's get organized, Fellow Workers!
