a Progressive 4th? Got pics?


in Greensboro the progressive contingent followed the dump trucks at the end of the parade. But they really made the best of it.

3. yes the dem table was cool I should have got a pic.
http://photocontest.shutterfly.com/action/photocontest/vote?entry=135632 Most of the police people were nice, but of course there was the token creep- kind of the villiage idiot of the police force.
He came up to the lady with the kid-in above photo and started yelling at her for carrying her FOLDED up banner/flag towards our table! He damanded that she NOT bring it into the festival area.
I don't get that at all- what if it was going to be part of the display? We were MUCH closer (like 4 tables away) to our table than the other end of the street. He actually confiscated it, even the other 2 police people with him appeared embaressed by his actions but you could tell they felt they couldn't go against what he said at that point.

the other interesting point is that in reguards to the parade; the progressive unit was at the end, following the garbage trucks- intentional I suspect, BUT- WE were the GRAND finally! so that was kind of cool actually! http://photocontest.shutterfly.com/action/photocontest/vote?entry=135632 this is my shutterfly 4th of JULY entry I post it only for this- other folks might want to enter their progressive/patriotic themed pics, or nay nice ones of course, the more the merrier- lots of folks peruse these pics- they are COOL!
