I thought the whole point of the planning was that they be over by mid-afternoon.

It’s not a good idea to have events carry on into the night. That’s when the crazies (on either side) show up, and you get the sort of violence that plays right into the regime’s hands.

The cops go nuts if people hang out.

The cops are assholes and want overtime.

I wouldn't worry about it.

It.was a fantastic warm fall day.

Nobody did shit. The cops wanted to show force and all they did was waste tax payer money. ACAB
