It was a brisk sunny day and there was no opposition that we saw. Only one crazy person was sighted.
The rally lasted about one hour and got positive responses from passersby.

a little late -
I made a large danish flag and have it in my front yard - since week one.
It is not just Denmark we support - it is all of us "infidels"

This is a close up of the caption of the cartoon in the last picture.
This gentleman was hoping to get his picture posted at ZombieTime but he settled for FR...
He heard about the rally at Little Green Footballs.

"Only one crazy person was sighted"
Are you sure this was not misquoted? Should it have been "Only one non-crazy person was sighted"?

Cinnamon Stillwell and one of the rallyers. Is that a word?
One cowboy and his cowgirl showed up. Neat people.

Bravo to those who showed up! It's a clean part of the Financial District. I once worked in that building.

Heh heh, you got a point there.
On second thought there were maybe a couple of crazy people at the rally!
These were a couple of signs that I could not figure out...
Do you suppose those guys were anti-protestwarriors?

What's to understand. This is San Fran, remember? When has anything coming out of this urban cesspool make any sense?

Ya gotta know where to look.
There are more than one of These Guys here.
If you come to SF only thinking of cesspools that is what you will sink into.

Oh OK.
I don't think there were any other FR people there. Just checking to see if I missed anyone.
Signs
I expecially liked this sign:
Fight Cartoon Rage! LOL

I have been to San Fran many times. I flew into NAS Alameda dozens of times and we went on liberty to San Fran. I must say I was very disappointed. Beautiful scenery but full of kooks and gays.

I understand the first sign. It's a reference to Kristalnacht in Germany before WWII. It started the pogram against the Jews.

Thanks for the report! I was there on my lunch break, holding up one of the Danish flags:

Great, I'm glad you made it.
You are the one that posted the original thread, thanks for that.
The young man on the left is Danish. I thought the girl was a Dane from her sign, but she had some baked goods in her tray. They were good.
The lady just past the camera is a UC Berkeley student doing an 8 min film on Denmark. She interview the young Danish fellow.
The interviewer thought the baked goods were dusty so she decided to dust them off with her little dust mop...
