Our reporters at the ICE building Thursday night counted several frogs, a unicorn, a polar bear, an axolotl, a raccoon, a peacock, a shark and a cat among about 100 regularly dressed people.
The nightly protest proved uneventful as darkness fell and protesters and counter-protesters started to gather.
The herd of animal costumes stood out. Or was it a flock?
Why do Ken Kesey's Merry Pranksters come to mind?
What's missing is The Lesbian Avengers. A bunch of overweight, bare-chested women eating fire. God I miss the old days.
ReplyDeleteBasically those inflatable costumes are meant as masking and to defeat biometric identification. Plus it's impossible to tell if they are armed inside them.
ReplyDeleteAlthough I did see an absolutely brilliant video of a police officer spraying his bear spray into the fan intake of a frog suit.
The masking occurred to me after I posted it. The weapons did not occur to me because I thought these were only heads.
