in solidarity with occupy wall street
san francisco, california
apparently, the comment box has been removed. i don't know why. perhaps there is a limit to the number of photos that can be added in a single post? i'm more interested in views than comments for this one, so, in that respect, it is doing very well. oh, and, btw, i remain in solidarity with this movement only so long as it is not co-opted or hijacked by either of the two political parties in the duopoly.
UPDATE: Thanks to advice from Buddha's Ghost, I think the comment problem has now been solved.

This photo was also taken shortly after I arrived at Pershing Square Park. Like many marchers, they were chilling out, storing up energy so they'd be ready to make the march north towards City Hall.
