On
Veterans Day we were prevented from marching with
signs in the parade by the American Legion, but we
marched anyway - behind the street sweepers. We
requested a speaker at City Hall Plaza and were
denied this request, so we lined up with gags in
our mouths to protest the denial of our free
speech. 18 of us were arrested. Our photos and
videos are here.
