Excerpt:
"I always wanted to be around in the 60s when this kind of stuff was going on, and even though it is on a smaller scale, it’s still cool to observe," Digangi said.
Supporters who had not stayed the night stopped by to check out the scene Sunday. One of them, Joshua Wright, 27, a U.S. Army veteran, held a sign reading "4,477=99%" -- referring to the number of U.S. soldiers killed in Iraq.
"I’m here because I did two tours in Iraq, and I saw a lot of people die," he said. "Why? Why did they die? The answer is they died for corporate America, so it’s time to bring a change."
