Occupy Dallas Presses On Despite City's Eviction Protesters March, Rally Saturday As Movement Tries To Put Together Common Message

 


Occupy Dallas protesters were evicted from their campsite behind City Hall early Thursday morning, but it seemed to not put a damper on the movement.

Saturday saw another day of marching, music and protesting for Occupy Dallas.

"We're trying to re-form, let the city know we're still going to be here, we're still going to do demonstrations, and just because we don't have tents, doesn't mean we don't have a movement," said Cordell Cameron with Occupy Dallas.

"Basically we're here to say you can knock down our tents, you can take our signs, you can do whatever it is that you like to shut us down or to kind of infiltrate or disrupt, but we're here," said Veronica Navarro with Occupy Dallas.

Many said the end of the tent city was not such a bad thing for their mission.
