| | Wondered how many people would show up in this weather. |
| | | Protected the camera with a Ziploc baggie. |
| |
| | Don't know the official count(s). But it was a lot of wet people. |
| | | Somewhere in this frame is Mira Sorvino, who spoke briefly. |
| | | Jesse Jackson was there, a bunch of others, but I couldn't get near the stage. |
|
| | The boys in blue were on their best behavior, as far as I could see. |
| | | But the crowd gave them no reason not to be. The peace rally was peaceful. |
| | | KPFK's black blimp of peace. |
|
| | Interfaith orgs are for peace. Why isn't our born-again-Christian-in-chief? |
| | | Some of the signs could be read in at least two ways. |
| | | Can't argue with the accuracy of this sign. |
|
| | The banner lists many Bush crimes, including "smirk." High crime or misdemeanor? |
| | | There were a lot of families, and many heartfelt displays of patriotism. |
| | | The one person representing the pro-war side was Travis Bickle. |
|
| | By "support our troops," Travis obviously meant "send them to kill and die." |
| | | I like this idea of support better. If I were a troop, I would prefer it. |
| | | I guess some people think Bush has broken laws or something. Hmm... |
|
| | Possibly an overstatement.Not sure a dictator would have allowed this demo. |
| | | Never found out what this was about. |
| | | "Bush's hate." It is tempting to imagine how the world would be without it. |
|
| | Only got near the stage after the rally was over. Jesse was here. |
| | | Inspiring demo, but we got more quiet and introspective on the way back home. |
| | | Because as strong as our feelings are against the war, it's most likely coming. |
|
| | And we know the struggle will only get harder now. Today was the easy part. |
