PORTLAND, Ore. - A protest against Wall Street and corporate America is spreading to the Northwest and local organizers of Occupy Portland say the city shouldn't expect what happened in New York over the weekend – there police arrested more than 700 demonstrators as they marched across the Brooklyn Bridge.
A handful of people who are helping to plan Portland's rally this Thursday said Monday they are frustrated with politicians and with corporations. They say their feeling is that the most powerful one percent of the country is more or less calling the shots for the other 99 percent of Americans.
The group says it wants to keep the protest nonviolent and avoid confrontations with police. But they do expect a large crowd at the noon rally at Waterfront Park. Then they'll march to Pioneer Courthouse Square.Entire article
