If police come, cooperate but don't engage them. Don't try to convince them to join. Don't try to incite violence against yourself. Violence will hurt our cause. We must remain peaceful and respectful to our surroundings.

In Missouri, from A Blue Collar View;

A group calling themselves "OccupySTL" is planning to protest this Saturday morning at the St.Louis Federal Reserve building to show solidarity with the Occupy Wall Street protests that have been going on in New York City for almost 2 weeks. If you haven't heard about the NY protests it's not surprising.

     Thousands of progressive protesters converged on Wall Street on Sept. 17 to protest the concentration of power and wealth in America. The  

Occupy Wall Street

web site states “The one thing we all have in common is that We Are The 99% that will no longer tolerate the greed and corruption of the 1%.” The "occupation" has continued even as the number of activists has diminished.

Demonstrations against the power of banks and corporations that were inspired by the Arab Spring movement are entering their third week in New York - and are spreading elsewhere.
Hundreds of people were marching through lower Manhattan today as part of the "Occupy Wall Street" demonstration.
Protesters are upset over social inequality, bank bailouts and corporate greed .
"Corporations are not people," said Max Richmond in New York City. "They don't deserve the same rights people do."
Moira Laughlin, who traveled to New York from Ohio to participate, is frustrated because she's been out of work for two-and-a-half years. "We have two teenage kids, we still have to pay the mortgage. send them to college hopefully, and it's not easy."
