this is a thread for images from the RNC, and its protests. For those of you who marched and took pictures (I didn't get to), post 'em here. Also, for anybody just interested in what's going on, feel free to post your favorite (or just weird or whatever) images from the next few days.

this image kinda sums up living in NYC right now (though things weren't that heavy today):

Are thosse just flags, or are they caskets or symbolic caskets?

― Huck, Monday, 30 August 2004 04:56 (twenty-one years ago)

cardboard caskets with real flags

they carry the bodies of fallen protestors along with them

Hstencil, did you get one of those peaceful protester pins? Or are those for out-of-towners only?

― Huck, Monday, 30 August 2004 05:06 (twenty-one years ago)

I don't even know where to get 'em, Huck.
