Occupy protests in Fort Myers, Naples

FORT MYERS -
Occupy protestors are marching around the world and right here in Southwest Florida. They say they're protesting big business and say they've had enough of capitalism.

There were two Occupy protests in Southwest Florida Saturday. One was in Naples and the other in Fort Myers, where nearly 500 people gathered in Centennial Park.

Protestors we spoke to say their message is clear

"Because we are sick of corporate greed," said Kelly Garcia.

Governor Rick Scott said the national movement lacks focus, and protesters were not happy to hear that.
