      Betty Doty talks to Mike Flanagan, both of Redding, Calif., Saturday, Oct. 8, 2011, at Turtle Bay, during an "Occupy Redding" rally. People came together to prepare for a rally to be held on Oct. 15 at a Chase bank in Redding, Calif.

      "Redding is a pretty conservative place compared to Arcata, Sacramento and Chico," said Flanagan. Those towns recently had similar rallies supporting the movement that started on Wall Street. "The support we saw today was great. It shows that conservatives as well as liberals know the system is broken and needs change," said Flanagan. "The change can't come from the corrupt institutions like banks and mainstream politics that take money from the institutions. We have to get people back in control of government instead of institutions," Flanagan said.
