Philadelphia Fraternal Order of Police union president John McNesby filed a grievance that could result in Lewis being permanently expelled from the FOP and stripped of union benefits such as life insurance and free legal assistance.

As noted by media, Lewis (legally) wore his uniform as a gesture of support for a movement against economic inequality in this country. His intention was to dispel assumptions that protesters were a sophomoric group, and underscore the belief that monetary grievances are a serious issue deserving of an informed solution.

In honor of the peaceful nature of the Philadelphia Occupy encampment, the city's image as a vanguard of brotherly love, and our integral role in founding this nation, please support the right to free expression and sign this petition. One love.
