Tampa’s weak version of Occupy Wall Street began with several hundred gathering at Lyke’s Gaslight Square in downtown Tampa. They marched through the streets with signs proclaiming to be part of the 99%, referring to the inequality of wealth distribution in the nation where the top 1% control a majority of the country’s wealth.
While in New York City people have been camped out for over three weeks, the occupiers left the square Thursday night, fearing arrests for trespassing if they remained. Friday morning only a dozen or so returned to the square.
