More than 15,000 people marched in San Francisco today, chanting: "$87 Billion for Jobs and Education, Not for War and Occupation," and "Bring the Troops Home Now!" National marches in San Francisco and Washington, DC were the largest show of opposition to the U.S. war and occupation of Iraq since the anti-war protests this Spring. Buses from all over the country brought 100,000 to the national march in Washington, DC. The San Francisco demonstration marched from Civic Center to Jefferson Square Park in the Western Addition district.

Those are great pictures!

The Chronicle today said that the police estimated the crowd at 5,000, which seems impossible. 'Organizers' estimated it at 15,000. I remember that my large high school of nearly 2000 could file through a hallway and through three sets of double doors into a gym during the five minute passing period. Here, I watched the crowd go into the park for a really long period of time - over half an hour
