    Protest!

    This happens to be a local school union demanding better contracts near our city hall. I was across and down the street taking pictures of a mixer our Chamber had tonight when I heard all the commotion, and I just had to run down there with my camera knowing that no one from our paper would be there.

    Now I'm all for freedom of speech, but sometimes ya gotta wonder just where and what some protests will actually get you, especially when you protest on a street corner after 6:00pm on a Thursday evening in the small town of Banning when hardly anyone is driving by. Chalk one up for bad planning. :mad2:

    The funny thing was, our mayor was outside asking "What's going on down there?" ut:

    Union dues in action...

    Great capture Ray. Be sure and submit these to the local paper.

    Think you and Claudia will be able to come down for the pre-photogathering BBQ?
