Protesters participating in the ongoing "Occupy Chicago" demonstration aren't just using the signs and chants to highlight the consolidation of economic and political power.
A former member of the U.S. Marine Corps at the "Occupy Chicago" protest told independent reporter John Sheehan that he supported the movement because Americans need to change things back to they way they were, "where the people are in control" instead of corporations.
The Chicago police on Friday attempted to divert the Critical Mass cycling event away from "Occupy Chicago" protesters, who have been camped out in front of the Chicago Federal Reserve Bank.
