The View From Your Protest: Tallahassee
A reader writes:
Just came from the protest in Tallahassee, where folks marched from the
Westcott fountain in front of Florida State University through downtown
Tallahassee to the old state capitol building. One official estimated
the marching group at 350, which is pretty good for an
uncharacteristically chilly day in FL. The state capitol sits at the
intersection of two main streets in Tallahassee and as pastors and
community leaders spoke from the capitol steps, marchers stood along
the street with signs, enjoying the encouragement, cheers and honks of
cars passing by. One elderly African-American man stood amid the
protesters holding up a sign that read "Same Sex Marriage: Evil,
Unholy," but he was the only counter-protester present.
