I'm in Dallas and haven't figured out how to post pictures yet but will.
If everyone waiting outside the barricades can be said to be protesting,
and I think that is true, there were hundreds of people in the rain
and bitter cold, if not a couple of thousand, near the Dealey Plaza barricades.
We had to watch the passionless and tasteless ceremony on a
big screen whose sound didn't work correctly. I thought the
only good element was that they ended with the Navy Hymn. The
mayor's speech was a disgracefully self-serving apologia for Dallas. If they
wanted to look like a police state and to display unresolved and richly deserved guilt
feelings in the process, they figured out the perfect way to do it. -- Joe McBride
