VERBATIM POST

Violence follows the Occupiers around like it’s their shadow.
(WaPo) — Hundreds of Occupy D.C. protesters blocked streets Friday night around the Walter E. Washington Convention Center where a conservative group was holding a dinner.
It appeared from preliminary accounts that two people, possibly protesters, were struck by cars near the center.
About 500 protesters stood in the streets at half a dozen intersections around the building, preventing cars from coming or going.
Several said that their aim was to prevent those inside from leaving.
In addition, it appeared that small fights were breaking between protesters and other people, possibly neighborhood residents.
