I've not time to write at this moment, so the following facts about this event will suffice -

    * the crowd numbered about 3,000
    * they were very orderly
    * they were angry
    * organizers asked them to pick up litter before leaving the area, which they did (sorry, but I found this impressive).

Please leave any and all comments as you wish. Feel free to use any of these images as you want.

Know that a video of Eric Odom and other crowd footage is be posted soon.

I am sorry that the pics are so dark, but I have a lot to do tonight and to be timely could not immediately set them correctly. Almost, unfortunately, had to be enough.
