I was there that day. I have pictures from the other side of the street of Tom Scott talking. I do not have pictures of the event because it was over with too fast. Kimber took a running leap into the truck with the biggest grin imaginable on his face (as you can see in the picture).
Right in front of me, on the other side of the street, was this youngish girl also with a big smile, milling around among our group (we had seen her earlier with the other crowd) getting into position to take the picture that appeared in the paper the next morning! He did look like he might be causing trouble. He certainly had no business getting into the truck.
Earlier in the day at the demonstration, he walked up and down the street with a bullhorn exhorting the libs and telling them what to say. They were pretty lame until he came. It happened exactly as RaceBannon has told it.
Sorrisi! I didn't know you then... didn't realize you were there that day. ;-)
What an amazing rally that was, huh? There had to be over 400 of us on our side! And - just as you described it - their side was pretty lame, until Kimber arrived with his bullhorn.
It sounds as though there is a possibility that RB was set up. I wondered about that already.
