I arrived late and was unable to get into the event, so I watched the protesters. The demonstration—rather tepid by Vietnam War-era standards—seemed to be dominated by LA Answer and the Revolutionary Communist Party, a Maoist faction. I also met a group of College Republicans who had come from UC Santa Barbara, 100 miles to the west, just to see Ann Coulter.
Uhh, 100 miles west of USC would be in the Pacific Ocean...
