Three police officers stood back with nothing to do but watch as Occupy Orange County protesters packed up the last of their supplies at Wednesday's peaceful end to nearly three months of overnight occupation at the Irvine Civic Center.
Tents, tarps, audio equipment, a podium and other well-worn supplies were loaded into cars beginning at 8 a.m. at Alton Parkway and Harvard Avenue. Supplies will be transferred to a new site -- Fullerton City Hall.
"It's kind of a bittersweet thing," said J.B. Wagoner, a protester from Temecula. "I think that the Occupy movement has reached some of its goals as far as raising awareness of corporate money and politics, but there's still a lot to be done. I think that we'll see the Occupy movement moving forward with positive things."

"Some people went at it the wrong way -- they went at it confrontational, instead of peaceful," Wagoner said. "In confrontation mode, people always lose, especially when it's violent confrontation."

Do you think with Mr. Wagoner is correct or incorrect in his analysis of Occupy Wall Street's achievement of its goals and of its tactics?
