Over 400 Occupy Wall Street protesters were arrested while crossing the Brooklyn Bridge today. The protesters say that the police coralled them onto the bridge, while the police and mainstream media report that the protesters were deliberately obstructing traffic.
Someone from OWS said on camera that he saw a few protesters walking in the road, rather than taking the pedestrian walkway, which bottle-necked at the entrance. I can imagine how easy it would be for hundreds of people to accidently follow behind the few who took to the street instead of taking the walkway.

These days, Dharamsala feels alternately like a temple and the seat of
revolution. At times it feels like both. Every morning, thousands of Tibetans,
young and old, those born in Tibet and those born in exile, march down the hill
from the market of McLoed Ganj, shouting in English for justice and human
rights, for the help of the UN, for the long life of the Dalai Lama. Today,
The Gathering Spot is a PEERS empowerment website
"Dedicated to the greatest good of all who share our beautiful world"
