Thought maybe you'd like this OccupyKC picture and location links:

There ARE loads of other pics, but I thought maybe you all would like to know where we were for about 18 months before Parks and Rec (not KC police, who were pretty good to us the whole time, btw) bulldozed us in preparation for the concert/festival season, nearly a year ago now:
