Everything went as planned today. The deployment was on time, and the flagpole was erected without any problems. Because city hall was closed for MLK day yesterday, there was quite a bit of foot traffic through there today. Lots of people checked out the display, but aside from doing the prayer and the protest at 12 and 12:30 respectively, I stayed back and let people just visit by themselves. There was no hostility at all, from anyone. The Univision reporter showed up with the cameraman, but didn't want to speak with me. I know he doesn't care for me at all, and I believe it might be related to our mex consulate protest a few years ago where Report and Deport stood on top of the mexican flag, and the univision guy took offense. No harm....
Also got a call from the Capitol Weekly,who wanted info on the upcoming capitol event. It was a long day for me, but not that difficult. Here are some photos, but I doubt I'll get video up tonight:
