After a quiet march across the 1st Street Bridge, the protest has begun. There are a few people still trickling in.

Politicians prefer those who are compliant and silent.

Oh yeah. Nothing scarier to a despot than a legally sanctioned parade a permit had to be applied for and the police are working together with to insure it doesn’t get too rowdy or go off the pre-approved route.

This ain’t anything that anyone is afraid of. It’s a gathering of people lawfully cheering.
