OKLAHOMA CITY Approximately 300 people gathered in Kerr Park late Monday afternoon as part of the national Occupy Wall Street movement which is spreading through the U.S. like wildfire.
And many of them plan to camp and protest Wall Street, the Federal Reserve or other bastions of corporate power indefinitely.
In the unfortunate instance that you are arrested, do not resist arrest, warned an attorney acting as part of the Occupy OKC legal team. He went on to say that Occupy OKC is committed to non-violence. The Oklahoma City Police Department had so far been very courteous and helpful and a few signs offered thanks to the cops for their cooperation during the occupation.
There were plenty of signs for the occupiers to hold and wave here on Robert S. Kerr Avenue. A few stated the following: Id rather be rebuilding Americas infrastructure, Privatized gains = Socialized loss, Bail out the 99% not the rich execs, Audit the Federal Reserve, and Resistance is fertile.
And one middle-aged man, looking a bit down in the mouth, held a simple sign which read: Pissed-off worker bee.

Beat me to it. Yes, I definitely think that the indefinite will end about the time the wind shifts to the north at about 30 mph gusting to 40 plus and the wind chill hits about umpteen below or so.
The worst part of winter in Central and North Oklahoma for me is seriously chapped lips. Lots of Carmex is the ticket.
I drove by Kerr Park on my way into the office this morning. I saw about 5 people holding signs. “People not profit,” etc. That was it. I may stroll over that way at lunch and see the show.
