Meanwhile, Occupy Chicago protesters are back on the streets, after 130 of them were arrested over the weekend. Some of the protesters were due in court Monday. The nurses, represented by the group National Nurses United, had set up a nurses' station to provide basic first aid for Occupy Chicago protesters in Grant Park. But over the weekend, the nurses were among 130 arrested by Chicago Police at the protest. The union said police also ripped down the nursing station. |
