“Just under 200 feisty protesters with Occupy Orange County marched Santa Ana streets this afternoon, chanted anti-corporate slogans and won supportive horn honks from hundreds of passing motorists,” according to the O.C. Weekly.
The OC Weekly also reported that the SAPD is not going to allow camping, making this a partial occupation. Here is the SAPD’s press release:

From the pictures, these people (cattle) look like silver spoon’ers.
They are part of the 1 percent they are protesting against.
What a bunch of rube’s
And the civic center authority spent a bunch of money to grass seed that area next to the firefighters memorial just to have these bozo’s destroy it with their selfish self centered demands for a free ride.
I say get a job freeloaders or join the service and see for yourselves what the world is all about on uncle Sam’s dime.
cook you stupid lame ass. The police horses created damage to your precious greenbelt next to memorial. Not the protesters. The protesters treated everything with great care. just look at the pic D-bag.
GREAT RESPECT??? They are sitting, standing and putting their crap on MEMORIALS that are there for people who have died!!! How is that respect? If you don’t like the cops, firemen or military, thats your problem and your issue. Get the hell off of and away from the memorials and go piss on, sit on or camp on your own memorial.
