I just arrived at a pool hall, and the three tvs had the riots on...I stopped in my tracks, and started ordering brews...I knew this was going to last a while...:)

6. Uh, I do. I was surrounded by tear gas for several days in my apartment. |
|
My favorite was this one guy, amidst all the signs, cardboard turtles and chaos, he just held this sign that read, "GABBA GABBA HEY." I loved that guy. :D

7. I saw someone doing something similar to that once |
|
at a "breakaway" demonstration (one of those marches that intentionally breaks away from the designated protest route). In the midst of tear gas, arrests, and all kinds of angry shouting, this guy was holding up a sign that said, "I LIKE PIZZA!"
