I had two undercover cops follow me around a Bush Protest today
Advertisements [?]
Let me preface this by saying that I look the farthest thing from a radical on the face of the earth. (BTW I'll have my protest report with pics tomorrow). I got to the protest early to take pics of the people assembling to protest King George, and the 10 Bush supporters that eventually had to be defended by the Boston PD because they couldn't defend themselves against the vitriol from AFL-CIO, Iron Workers, Carpenters, Veterans, Military Families, and ordinary folks. I have pictures of these cowering losers also. Boo hoo-they had to cross the street because they were afraid of real Americans! :cry:

Anyway, here I am, nice blonde well-dressed chick wandering around taking pics and these two flat foots begin following me. I walked from the corner of Arlington & Boylston down by the Four Seasons, where guests to the $2000 per plate fundraiser were arriving early to chants of 'traitors', 'send your own kids to Iraq', etc. I took pictures of women in fur and the fat white men that accompanied them. The two undercover guys follow me there and around the block. Finally, I turn around:

"You're cops, I can tell by your bad shoes"

"Excuse me, ma'am?"

"I'm a citizen taking pictures, leave me alone"

"Whatever, lady." They knew I knew-they had these smirks on their faces.

I guess everyone's a suspect these days. Tomorrow, I'll have pics and all. For now, good night!
