Occupy Protesters Swarm 1 US Capitol in Washington


As the protesters held what they call a general assembly on the Capitol grounds, police responded to a suspicious man wearing a Philadelphia police uniform.

“Why is he being searched," asked one protester.

“Because he is wearing a police uniform," responded the policeman. "Thus, somebody wearing a police uniform would be carrying a gun. Thus we search.”

The man wearing the police uniform is retired 2 Philadelphia Police Captain Ray Lewis.

Lewis is well known in Occupy circles for his support of the movement. He was arrested along with others at a New York Protest late last year. “Thank you for being here. You guys all started this. I just jumped on your coattails," said Lewis.

When police try to move protesters from an area where they don't have a permit, tempers flair 3.

Then, police tackle two protesters who jump a wall and try to run past a police line.

“You are free to be here but you are required to file a permit," said a police officer. "If you filed a permit for here, then you would have the permit for here. But you filed a permit for over there.”

Finally the police give in and let the protesters stay.

A small victory for the Occupy movement during what has been a difficult winter.
