Stony Brook Man Experiences Occupy Wall Street Movement

Mike Vincenti headed to NYC to participate in the movement one recent afternoon.

Stony Brook resident Mike Vincenti told The Village Times Herald that the Occupy Wall Street movement "was as organized as it was disorganized."

He experienced the protests firsthand, as he headed down to Wall Street one recent Sunday afternoon to see for himself what was going on.

While some of the methods and messages seemed to conflict, he said, ultimately the point was that people across a wide range of political ideologies came together to say "the state of Wall Street has led us here and everyone's dissatisfied."
