Iraq | Anti-WarBreakaway March at SF Protest Demands Action To Stop The War
Around 2:30 several hundred demonstrators gatherd near Polk and Grove to stage a march for more radical action to stop the war in Iraq. The march circled the corwd gaining several thousand people and then moved down Market St towards a military recruiting center near Embarcadero Plaza. The march then circled onto the Embarcadero and stopped back in front of the Recuiting Center where an open mike allowed many people to speak.  breakaway_march.jpgw75829...

Corporate Media

Board Police

Bored Police

Cops Were Prepared
