I can't take the credit for shooting all of these pics, but I might be willing to take credit for any of them you like. :)

2. Good Job!
Looks like it would have been very noisy at times!

I like the one with the fat cat in his red mid-life crisis SUV arguing with the policeman.

3. Some people said that was ex-mayor of LA Richard Riordan, but I don't know
I couldn't tell if it was him, but some of the people there said they thought it was him and he was getting booed. :)

4. Coverage of the Protest (or lack thereof...)
I wasn't able to get out there yesterday, so when I got home last night I dutifully went online looking for news or reports about the protest. Um, strange (sh'yeah, right!), I didn't find word one...except here! Are there any reports from the scene? How many people showed up? What happened?

Please allow me to live vicariously (this time)!

On edit: That was Riordan and man was he pissed he got caught in the protest. Lots of people shouting, "you're a dirty little girl."
