From Occupy Atlanta, Desert Storm veteran Mark Harris and fellow Occupy Our Homes activists resist eviction from his 18 years home. OOH reports that Mr. Harris had been in negotiations with Fannie Mae for 10 months to modify his mortgage, even traveling to Washington D.C. to meet with executives concerning his willingness and ability to pay if a modification were worked out. Fannie Mae refused, and the veteran was evicted by armed police officers, arriving with guns pointed at Mr. Harris, 8:00 A.M., August 9th. Fannie Mae has since been paying thousands of dollars for private security to guard an empty house.
