Oh, our sides!
The Occupy movement is protesting at the Republican National Convention in Tampa, Fla. Like MoveOn, they have never occupied a spelling class either, evidently.

Twitter user Lachlan Markay is on the scene and his reports thus far are hilarious.

Some guy walked past protesters chanting that they're the 99% and said "yeah, all ten of you." #win

Oh, snap! That’s definitely a win right there.
Pretty much. RT @BenHowe: @lachlan so they are the .000000133333333%.

"You've got to occupy your future NOW!" umm…wut?

I wanted to get some Quiznos, but it's fenced off to protect it from those 99%-loving protesters.

No word yet on when their “rape tents” will be set up. However, they have already disgustingly threatened rape.

Twitchy will, of course, continue to monitor Occupy RNC. Remember, sunlight is the best disinfectant.
