Nationwide: URGENT ACTION TONIGHT. Occupy Oakland and Iraq Veterans Against The War (www.Ivaw.org ) are calling on the Occupy Movement (every Occupy encampment site around the country) to stand in solidarity with OccupyOakland in holding a peaceful vigil for injured Marine vet, Scott Olsen, tonight. 24-yr-old Olsen was injured by an Oakland PD projectile during a raid on Occupy Oakland on October 25th and is now in a coma awaiting brain surgery.
