And finally, to the Occupy protest in Denver.
The city’s mayor asked the demonstrators to elect a leader, who could be a contact
for police when things get tense.
The Occupy movement has resisted such calls before… but the Denver protesters protestors obliged and nominated a three-year-old Border Collie named Shelby.
One supporter explained the decision, “Shelby is more of a person than a corporation is and less corrupt than most people. She is the youngest, first, and only dog leader of this revolution.”
