This too is America

As promised, I am posting more images taken at the Hollywood, California "Stop the War Protest" held March 17th, 2007--Part I on this subject can be found here.


George looks blueish


Little George wore Hot Pants


Big George wore a smirk


Latinos For Peace sported a banner


Tricky Dick displayed his trademark Victory signs


A man with long hair and a goatee showed off his patriotism


The teeming hordes, dressed in casual attire, carried signs and marched while many other citizens, perhaps tricked out in more formal wear, went to the beach or the mountains or the mall or...


Many, many cameras were put to use during the protest


A wide variety of signage was employed


Martin Sheen agreed to be interviewed


Actually, Martin Sheen spoke with a lot of people, people who wanted to speak with him


The march turned south from Hollywood Blvd. and continued down to Sunset Blvd., then headed west before making a right north to Hollywood & Highland


No, they wouldn't dare...


Thousands of people somehow managing to cooperate for a greater good


Dirty Fucking Commie Hippy Peace Sign


This guy was there with his wife...I was surprised that Cheney's staff hadn't outed them yet


It's a Great Big Brotherhood of Man! Erm, there were a couple of so-called
"Counter Protestors" across the street...dressed casually, I might add


I have to send this one to General JC Christian!


Oh, sure, as if Jesus stood for peace and love...

NOTE FROM MJS: I went to this posting looking for an image--I discovered that Photobucket removed a pic I had titled "Watada Banner"--it would have been right here. I would have to do some searching to find the original, but here is a link to an image of a Watada banner. Here is a link to a brief bio about Ehren Watada. Whatever justification Photobucket has to remove the image is suspect and ultimately unconstitutional. Watada himself has not sought privacy, so what gives? Updated 8/22/09--mjs

None of those people are wearing suits.

If I supported them, it might hurt my chances of getting a job with the Clinton campaign. Snark.

Just a note. You resized these photos but you didn't compress them. That's why the page is taking so long to load. Each one is half a meg.
