Occupy Atlanta protesters camped-out in below-freezing temperatures Thursday morning to make a statement. They want to save people's home from foreclosure.
They scheduled a press conference for Thursday afternoon at a home in Atlanta on Glen Iris Drive where the family faces eviction. About half-a-dozen tents filled the front yard. Protesters said the family was a victim of predatory lending.
