A Prop 8 challenge for swankers

Not washing with me either. (Not the Arnold petition, though that's also absurd).



There was tons of media at the peaceful part of the protest, and every image I've seen in every newspaper and online was taken then (of course, it being daylight, the pictures were prettier and were more able to capture the Mormon Temple in the background).

Granted, the ongoing protest with street closures into the night got a lot of the continuing and LIVE Coverage!! ... and it sure was noticed.


It was not noticed in a good way. Even the news coverage was Pissed Off Fags. I don't see how that is helpful.



I was really inspired by the photos someone posted in one of these threads of the massive civil rights rallys in Washington D.C. in the 60's. It was the numbers that mattered. They did not stop all activity in the nation's capital. They got noticed by massing and protesting. And that notice was positive. Shut down the city and the notice turns negative.



I understand there's a lot of disagreement and I'm shouting in the wilderness on this one. When a mob gets together, the peaceful route is not most likely.


But I saw it yesterday. A peaceful protest became a mob before my very eyes.
