Tents Erected In Occupy Dallas

The Occupy Dallas protests seem to be fundamentally different than many of the other protests. First of all, many people have jobs. This is a nighttime and weekend protest. Sure, there are some people who are there throughout the day, but many of the people seem to be employed. Secondly, they did not immediately commit to a long-term stay. It took a few days for the tents to come out. Thirdly, to my knowledge, the relationship with the protesters and police has been civil, even friendly at times. It seems as though the Dallas Police Department has gone out of their way to help keep things non-violent.

I heard they were changing places so we'll have to see. These were taken yesterday.
