My beach. My rules.
>>Occupy Wall Street protesters from Los Angeles to Portland to Atlanta are trying to distinguish between homeless people who are joining their movement and those who are there for the amenities. In Los Angeles, homeless transplants from the city's Skid Row have set up their tents within the larger tent city. No violence has been reported, but protest organizers are attempting to discourage people who are only at the encampment for the amenities. →

We suppose it was inevitable that class divisions would eventually form within the other 99%, especially in Los Angeles.

    Those class divisions have been there from the start, but perhaps this is just more obvious.

    Fair point. Yeah I’ve read through the article in full now and it doesn’t back up the claim made in the headline.
