Someone reported on my main thread that 2,000 people showed up in Hollywood for protests. Pics will be posted when they get developed.

I attended a Protest March in Minneapolis, MN. One of several and I know we had 1,500 - which the media reported as "over 1,000" and provided terrible pictures.

The DU has better pics:

1. Los Altos should have been there (on the list)

It was not, but I (and daughter) were there.

4. I did in Davis, CA

but they hold them every single Saturday and have since 9/11. It's
more a peace vigil than a protest. I would have loved to have gone
to SF but it wasn't in the cards. That's OK, we still got in the
local paper for Davis. I was also pleasantly surprised to see in my
local paper for another town in the area which is blatantly Repub,
that they had a veteran on the front page holding a sign that
read "Bush lied and my son died!!" The few Bush supporters in the area need that shoved in their faces!

They are starting to see and hear us!
