Redman said he wasn’t sure what message Jacksonville residents were trying to communicate.
“I don’t know what they expect people to do,” Redman said. “I don’t know what they expect out of the government. Times are tough here. We’ve had to lay off people.”

He can start locally by not giving local developers a hand out at the taxpayer's expense by keeping the mobility fee in tact.

And put in place measures to scale back/discourage sprawl, and give the people back their public transit system (that they let giant corporations take from us) so we're all not 100% reliant on cars (something that eats away at family's monthly bottom lines), and place condemned properties up for auctions to actual residents who'll occupy them instead of letting their cronies bulldoze them, and get rid of the damn parking meters in town instead of having them there solely so a couple of numb nuts can have a job that shouldn't even exist, and let food trucks into neighborhoods (especially ones that need help), and let people grow a damn food garden, farm fish, etc in neighborhoods that are falling apart so those who choose to eat healthy foods (that aren't laced with god knows what) don't have to shop at Whole Foods & get butt-raped by their prices, and some kind of consistent bike network so people who choose to not drive can still get around & not be killed by cars on a road system that is highly favorable to those cars, and...

Seriously, is this guy from planet Earth? If he doesn't understand these things, then it's people just like him who is the problem. He probably should pull his head outta his ass.

"For ever and ever, amen".

"Peace be with you".

Thank you, JSO for not allowing Redman to talk you into shutting down the demonstration.  Remember that permits are not required.

Mr. Redman, here is some remedial reading for you.  "The right of the people to peaceably assemble shall not be infringed".  I know the original document is to long and complicated for you, but that one is right up at the top.  We won't mind if you have to move your lips when you read it either.

With very, very few exceptions, the government should not be shutting people up, no matter what their message is.

Dear Jacksonville Sherriff’s Office,

I was a member of the Occupy Jacksonville Protest occurred on 10/8/2011. I want to say thank you for all the officers who were present at the event. All of the officers present did a great job of controlling the traffic flow on the streets, and none of them not one of them, harassed any protestor.

They were all courteous, answered any questions if asked, and did an outstanding job.
