Don't be afraid of freedom
I signed some petitions to help get things on the ballot but it really wasn't my kind of crowd. They had split their agenda into many issues, I suppose to get a bigger crowd but it just made them look unfocused and ineffective.
I was leaving because my parking meter was about to expire.
"What's going on?" she asked, onced I reached her side of the street.
"Anti-war demonstration"
"But they're wearing riot gear"
With a half laugh I replied "Yeah" as I looked back over my shoulder at all the cops.
The "go figure" was implied.
"You want to stay away from places like that." I don't know if she was talking to me or her small children.
I didn't watch as she walked in a differnet direction.
