Police Pack Bus to Attend War Protest
Wednesday morning, a protest and march kicked off the 5th anniversary of the invasion of Iraq. Never to miss an opportunity to assert their revulsion with the war, the SFPD made haste to participate.
First, a convey of police Suburbans, marked and unmarked cars made a symbolic progression from Market Street up Bush Street, in the wrong direction. This gesture obviously was the SFPD representing the fact that our country is going the wrong way and needs to turn around. Just like this administration, the police convey stubborning and screamingly forged ahead against rush hour traffic. Only with great effort and several near-casualties did our heroic officers traverse the four blocks to Kearney Street.
The convey meets the police bus on Montgomery.
SF Police care about the environment! That’s why they requisitioned a HYBRID Muni bus!
There they met up with many more officers. In fact so many officers wanted to participate in the rally that they requisitioned a Muni bus! Notice the POLICE SERVICE on the sign. Truly WILD!
Motorcycle police escort a bus of more police. There were likely >100 officers in support! Truly the best use of police resources.
In fact there were so many police in support, they traveled in front, behind, and all around the parade. One could almost say the police dominated the event! Good thing they were there in support.
MGW must take off its hat in salute to San Francisco’s finest!
