OccupyPhoenix, facing SWAT (!), needs help
I've posted a video here, in which you can hear a cop in a HELICOPTER threatening the protesters with arrest:

People in or near the Phoenix area, OccupyPhoenix needs more protesters to help back them up. The guy in this video explains the situation very well:

Please forgive the cross-posting, but this is really important.

1. He says "I'll make this quick" and then rambles for 11 minutes.
Whoever he is, he needs to learn to be more direct and to the point with his message so people don't fall asleep before he makes his point.

5. He was exhausted
It's kind of hard to give a perfect Power Point presentation when you feel as if you've walked 100 miles (as this man said), then faced a show of police force of that magnitude.

Seriously, a little compassion on your part wouldn't hurt.

6. I understand. I was tired when I watched it. I was anxious for him to get to the point. nt

2. So much damned force. Doesn't make sense.
