Occupy Little Rock Occupy Little Rock busted again on anniversary
Posted by Max Brantley on Mon, Oct 22, 2012 at 6:15 AM
Seven members of Occupy Little Rock marked the one-year anniversary of the Occupy movement by demonstrating Sunday night at the city-owned parking lot at Fourth and Ferry where they camped until swept away in a huge city bust.
Deja vu all over again. Little Rock cops were out in force to prevent demonstrators from standing on the parking lot and, according to participants, told them they'd be arrested if they stopped walking along the sidewalk. Before it was done, several have told me by e-mail, cops issued citations. Robert Nunn provided the photo of cops writing up Kaitlin Lott and Greg Deckelman.
