Occupy occtrocities: Keystone XL edition

The rudderless Occupy movement is also clueless. They are planning to protest the involvement of the Charles and Edward Koch in the proposed Keystone XL pipeline in Wichita, Kansas. There is just one problem: the Koch brothers have no involvement in this much needed energy project.

As always, I have reports on arrests and evictions.

And finally, soon-to-be-evicted Occupy Claremont in southern California is being evicted and they are marking their departure with a going-away party. I find it odd that they are celebrating because one of the occupiers died at their camp last month.
