March to End Corporate Personhood: 11/12/11, 12pm

[Anoobis]

We are having a march this Saturday, Nov. 12, 12pm, calling for an end to corporate personhood. For too long, corporations have had all the rights of a human being, without the restrictions of a body to be jailed for their crimes.

Please come down to Occupy Denver, bring your family and friends, and help us send this message to the nation.

People with disabilities, the elderly, those with pets, and families with kids will lead our march to set a safe and inclusive pace.

We don't expect any problems of any kind this weekend. We urge everyone to keep cool, calm, collected, and considerate.

Have a great time! Bring your signs, bring your minds!

Well, we were expecting no trouble, asked for no trouble, but received the biggest trouble yet. Totally violated with no "lawful order" given. I used to side with the police, thinking they are the 99%. But after the actions tonight, I nearly teared up several times.

This is not the America I was raised to believe in, this is not the America I truly believed in. The land of opportunity, the land of the free, home of the brave, the apple of the world's eye.

Where is everyone going to be tomorrow? Last I heard you'd moved to 16th Street?

Location will be decided upon soon.

The problem lies with the mayor issuing executive orders to close whatever park we are in. He's been a douche this entire time, but with his friends its no wonder.

The other problem lies with the fact that when we moved out of CCP tonight and stopped at a new park, SWAT (the trucks with 15+ green riot police) stormed out from the shadows shooting rubber bullets and arrested half of us before the others managed to get away. There is no safe place to protest in this city. God bless this GREAT nation.

Does anyone know if there is a mechanism for recalling a Denver mayor?

Cool, well, I'd like to swing by after church today, so let me know where everyone is.
Maybe we can make this a mobile occupation? They can't get us if we're in a new spot every few days. I don't know how feasible that really is. Maybe we should just occupy outside the mayors office. How do the people who have protested war outside the White House 24/7 for the last 20 years or so get to do it? Anyone know?

[Anoobis]

We will be returning to CCP for our GAs at 3pm and 7pm. Pass the word. More to follow post GAs.
