About a half-dozen people gathered in downtown Cumming Thursday afternoon for an Occupy Cumming demonstration. Group organizer Sharon Gunter said the purpose of the demonstration was to show solidarity with the national movement and to build a coalition calling for jobs, Congressional term limits, lobbyist reform and tax equity.

"We got a lot of honks from passing motorists," Gunter said. "It's the most visible place in Cumming."

Gunter said the group plans more demonstrations in the coming weeks.
