A Typical Weekend in San Francisco

The protest on Saturday was incredibly large. The organizers estimated 50,000 and I wouldn't be surprised if that was correct. It was definitely the largest march I've ever been in. The march on March 19th was the 2nd largest, the Millions for Mumia march in Philly in the late 90's was the 3rd largest, then I think either the rally against the execution of Shaka Sankofa in Huntsville or one of the marches before the war in Iraq in Austin tie for 4th. It's too bad we didn't surprise the cops and all march to Nancy Pelosi's office (or Dianne Feinstein's) and take the place over.

Then on Sunday I went to my first Folsom Street Fair. It was a huge, crowded, sweaty, drunken, fetish party. It was a lot of fun. The only problem I had was with the occasional military or police fetish guys - but I guess if they're submissive and being whipped it's o.k.
