Occupy Park City

This is one of the funniest things I have witnessed in a while. You can't watch the news without seeing the huge groups of people in the major cities supporting the Occupy Wall Street movement.  The wander around with signs, sing chants, and generally hang around.  That is until the police decide that enough is enough and run them off.  That's frequently a bit of an aggresive effort.

It just wouldn't be acceptable for Park City to be left out of the excitement, so there is now an Occupy Park City movement.   It even has a Facebook page here.

And this is the sign.
And here are all the tents and people.  I guess it will take a while to build momentum.  There is one more tent than I saw yesterday.
I like the fact that people believe in a cause enough to take action, but this still seems very lonely.
