With the horizontal structure of Occupy, will it mean less or more chances of a bad actor

2. It depends on whether violence (including property destruction) is being forced

onto everyone else present, who came there (perhaps with children or in a wheelchair) expecting the
peaceful protest to be .. well .. peaceful and to NOT involve this kind of counter-productive and
provocative behavior from fellow demonstrators.

I think serious discussions are underway currently in most local Occupies as to how to deal with this.
I even saw one report where bamboo polls were to be used to corral BB offenders and hand them
over to police in order to contain the violent behavior, NOT give police an excuse to unleash violence
on peaceful protesters and to maintain a semblance of safety for unsuspecting vulnerable protesters.

Not saying I would necessarily support that, but it is being considered.
