Unbelievable. Thank god no one was hurt. I'm originally from Maine and I can't believe something like that would happen there...
OMG, this is terrible. This is why I have stressed that no children or pets should be at these protests.
Occupy is going to have to pay attention to this and make some decisions about the camps and their security.
This Needs to be up front an Center on the 'News Page'..along with the phone number to the Police Department there...
.... This is another example of the PEOPLE getting further along in our pursuit of Justice!... and the Ignorant (3%) just cant stand it!
Portland police are looking for the person who threw a chemical bomb at the Occupy Maine encampment in Portland during the early morning hours today.
Sgt. Glen McGary said police responded around 4 a.m. today to an explosion in Lincoln Park at Congress and Pearl streets.
Though no one was injured, McGary said the homemade bomb, which consisted of chemicals poured into a plastic Gatorade container could have caused serious injury.
Occupy Maine, which is protesting corporate greed, has erected about three dozen tents in the 2.5-acre park. McGary said the bomb was thrown into the camp’s kitchen, a tarped area where food is cooked and served.
Occupy Maine, which began in Monument Square, is aligned with the Occupy Wall Street movement.
Last Friday, a group of Occupy Maine protesters stood outside the Bank of America Branch at One City Center to demonstrate against big banks and corporations.

This is what a media of hate will do. Every single outlet should be brought to court for this. Fox,Cnn,Msnbc,glen beck and breitbart.

That was bound to happen. You are making yourselves targets, packed together.
I thought about this earlier. OWS is creating an opportunity for terrorism.
Ever heard of a mall? or Disneyland? Opportunity for terrorism just because there is a group of people protesting? You gotta be kidding me... If anything terrorists would enjoy seeing dissent against the government.
Terrorists don't like to see anything, otherwise they would live long enough to see it. Attacking the protesters will cause the government to start rounding people up and sending them home. It's terrorism, it's not political. It's terror. There is no purpose.
