(CNN) -- More Occupy Wall Street protests were scheduled in New York on Thursday, a day after demonstrators marched to support an Iraq war veteran who was hurt in California.

Hundreds packed the streets near Manhattan's Union Square on Wednesday in a march in support of veteran Scott Olsen. At least 10 people were arrested in clashes with officers, a New York police spokesman said.

Olsen suffered a skull fracture Tuesday night after allegedly being shot in the head with a police projectile in Oakland, California, according to Iraq Veterans Against the War.

The former Marine has become another rallying cry for the Occupy Wall Street protests spreading throughout the country.

This is a man who is fighting for your freedoms! Stand up and support him! Stop the Police Brutality!

The point is that the Right can't smear this as being an all lefty demonstration. These are real men and women some of whom have already fought for this country in Iraq and Afghanistan. Now we must support him and put an end to police brutality that is happening all over the country.

Stop twisting my words you know exactly what I mean. This is a movement that consists of all kinds of people. Nothing to say about police brutality? You think they should be able to brain people whenever they want? Do your own homework :)

Sorry, but "Olsen" isn't "the military". lol This was a truly sad attempt to redeem yourself. Pathetic actually. :D

I think he got hit by a tear gas canister. I doubt it was intentional, I don't think a tear gas launcher s even designed to hit a target (no sights, etc.)

This man is not alone. In the five hours since the thread went up there have been over 600 comments.

You would laugh at someone in critical condition, someone who almost died for your freedom.

If you shoot a gun right in front of someone's face it is going to hit them. Don't be stupid. You can see from the photo taken right before there was no violence.

I think it's definitely a story but to suggest the Marines are up in arms is just a blatant misrepresentation. It's unfortunate on the heels of jgreer's actions yesterday.

You risk this sort of thing when attending a demonstration, IMO

<<<<< Mocking Childress.....Only Exterterrestrials could have powers like that. To have God like Powers. To have the technology to make soft batch cookies where all other cookies ever made were hard. Prior to that humans were into blood sacrifice and concerned about zombies and vampires. The dead rising back up and coming to haunt family members and friends.

<<<<<Georgio.....thats why when Winter Soltice came they left out the best cookies. So Santa would come. Leave some shitty ass cookies out there and Santa was turned into Satan, and then it was your azz. :D ;D

The good news is.....getting back to the Marines. All know Heaven is full of the Heroes. ;)
