Please note that this was a MARCH, not a Rally! Organizers and marchers marched early in the morning to Ted Hayes "compound", Dome Village, where we had rousing speeches and pre March instructions! We then marched 4-5 blocks to downtown LA where we PROUDLY marched up the final leg of the LA Marathon IN THE STREET! Ted and I were blaring away on our bullhorns as we lead chants from our group!

The cops didn't ask us to move onto the sidewalk until we were at the very end! We got thousands of thumbs up, "YOU GO's", and horn beeps, and ONLY ONE NEGATIVE COMMENT (that I heard)! WOW! The crowd was very supportive and encouraging! Take the LIBS out of their carefully constructed dog and pony shows and they get very little support from Joe and Joan sixpack!

Great work!

Any word yet on media coverage?

Wish I could have seen this! Sounds exhilarating!

Good point. We learned a lot at this event, and we'll make it even more effective next year. BYI, if you have more pics of the event, I'm looking for more to post on www.fitaimact.org. Thanks.
