Man Arrested for Wearing Occupy Jacket at Supreme Court


Occupy supporter Scott Fitzgerald was arrested in Washington DC inside of the Supreme Court building for wearing a jacket with “Occupy Everything” on the rear.

[VIDEO] Officers attempted (kind of) to explain where so-called “Marshal’s Regulations” were posted that supposedly justified the arrest and the barring of Occupiers’ from entry to the public building…and failed.

This is maddening, and they wonder why we are getting frustrated and feeling voiceless?

Apparently Occupy insignia is now probable cause for arrest. This is not the country I was raised to support.
