Description Westlake Center, March 15th, 2008.

On our way to the Scientology protest to check it out, we stopped at Westlake for some food. We found 4 protests occuring at the same time (5 if you count Girl Scout cookies....btw they were winning). About 70 people for a Free Tibet march came through Westlake center and down to Pike Place along with about 10 cops. It was non violent, and a great place for photos. I had a lot of fun.

You've waved this photo in my face for long enough. If I fav it will you stop bothering me?
Seriously though, I don't know why I didn't in the first place. Probably because I was protesting against 'artistic' grain just as this person protests occupation of Tibet.

Then I posted "Hash Marks", a street shot that employed artistic grain, realized I was a hypocrite, and came back to fav this.

I don't need your sass.

Nice photojournalism. It doesn't really endorse either side of the issue, just presents something in an engaging way.

I don't care about the political issues behind this photo. PLEASE do not post anything bashing China or Tibet in this deviation. In fact, don't bash anything! It is not only rude but is also against dA policy!

This goes for everyone. Stop!

Nice. I had to convince Jay and Russell that Nick seriously believes in protesting Scientology and wasn't just being a douche.

He is kind of hardcore on that. He's doing his Global Cit paper on it.
