The exact size of the protest was difficult to measure. Women’s march organizers put the number at 750,000.The crowd was too large to be accommodated by the planned Hill Street march route. Demonstrators jammed the surrounding streets of Olive, Broadway and Grand Avenue, chanting "Love Trumps hate" as they made their way toward City Hall.
“There is a sea of humanity everywhere,” said Los Angeles police Capt. Andrew Neiman.

The English Defence League on a protest march in Blackpool on the 28th May 2011.
This photograph was taken as the protesters left the starting point on the promenade at Blackpool outside Yates's. The official word from the police is that they were not expecting trouble but never the less, there was a massive police presence.
Reports were that there was only 10 arrests through the day, put I personally witnessed 5 of them outside Yates's and a further arrest later on in the afternoon on Lythem Road, not far from Witherspoons.
Alcohol was blamed for the majority of the arrests (drunk & disorderly) which brings into question the wisdom to allow the official meeting point for a protest group that has a history of violent encounters with the people that are against the EDL ethos, to be a Pub, not only that, to allow the pub to serve them alcohol at 10am?
queer-interventionalism at it's best - one of the only times i saw a cop crack a smile. what does it take?!?
Read my blog entry on the Hong Kong protest at guywong.blogspot.com/2014/10/hong-kong-protest.html
The press has been extremely biased with its reporting, interviewing predominantly the protesters and their leaders, criticizing those who oppose the movement, and denigrating the Hong Kong government and police. Their articles concentrate on peaceful protesters yearning for democracy but fail to show the violent and disruptive side of the protest. Hong Kong is actually a very free city with all the characteristics of democracy.
The protest is not a spontaneous student movement but a well funded and well organized anti-government undertaking.
I have also included at the bottom of the blog entry how foreigners are involved in the planning and funding of the protest.
A lot of the people at the protest spend the entire day in Harvard Square, though the actual protest begins in the evening. It is cold, windy and while it is raising awareness I do not know how much it is accomplishing beyond that yet.
I'm told that sometimes, friends pick up their children and bring them to the protest in the afternoon and the kids get to spend the rest of the day until 8pm in the square. So amongst the solemn chants, and the cars honking for Free Tibet, there are little kids voices playing tag. It isn't uncommon to see people holding banners in one hand and toys in the other and hear people asking around for their kids.

While everyone will have their own opinions on the purpose of the protest it was good to see democracy at its best; a peaceful protest.
