In Occupy news, wounded Iraq War veteran Scott Olsen reportedly gave a “thumbs-up” to his roommate after being told of the support he has received from Occupy demonstrators around the world. The 24-year-old suffered a cracked skull and brain swelling after Oakland police fired tear gas into a crowd of protesters last Tuesday. His injury led to anti-police brutality marches and vigils around the country. Olsen is still unable to speak and has been communicating to family and friends with a notepad he keeps next to his hospital bed.
