Getting Egged At Street Protest - Benning SOA - 2 of 2

this is the part where I go up and down the street with a camera running checking the doors that the police didn't bother with. I also ask a person or two if they know the people personally, etc.
The most suspicious thing I saw throughout was a "kid" on a small bmx bike dressed kind of punkish. He looked like he was 20ish trying to look 15ish. I put him out of my mind until he surfaced again half a mile away back at the Convention Center. When I trained my camera on him there, he got a very angry tone in his voice asking why I was filming him. I moved away from him right after that to safer spaces.

OK, next year, assuming we have to go next year, rather than hanging out at the puppetista space I gotta do the night march. Looks like it's getting bigger and more fun every year.

Marco, was there anything you didn't tape?

hahahaha.

a lot! I missed all three indoor concerts.

Looks like plenty of people filmed all the

things I didn't get too, so hopefully there

will be a lot of overlap with videos people

are still putting up.

We need to get a "permit" to demonstrate on the streets next year! Pity the souless person who egged us. My freind got egged right in the back, she said it hurt, but luckily it didn't break on her. We have a little souvenir from the protest from the souless person who egged her.

I had so much fun that night- minus dealing with the police. You left out the part where the black cop pushed the guy in the helmet in the chest. Can't wait for next year!

Great video. I am glad other people are posting this march. We need people to see that a march on the streets is still a worthwhile mode of expressing beliefs. The more support we have for this mode of expression the better. Its such a great way to get out frustration in a non-violent way..I got so much exercise jumping around and walking I felt great afterwards.
