Get your popcorn boys and girls this is going to be good.

China has lined up 1000's of supporters, while protestors range from Tibetan monks and their supporters, Burmese Monks, other critics of China, and your usual rabble rousers.

THere appears to be an escort grouping up at the entrance to Golden Gate Park - but it could be a fake-out. But it looks barren of any kind of crowd....

New word coming in that..... on KPIX.... "The Torch Relay is Over!"

THere is word that there will be a ceremony at the Presidio-

If they hold a ceremony that helps glorify Communist China at the former HQ of the US 6th Army I’m going to be SICK!!!

And 1st generation Chinese immigrant is a potential agent unless proven otherwise. Even if they aren’t one currently, the brainwashing they received growing up make them every easily turned by the a govt that knows which button to push.

Well after all. They don't need to get to you. They can get to your family.

I wonder if the media isn’t being used to misdirect the protesters.

No protests allowed. A semi police state. Reporters barred from secret events.

Hmmm.. What does that remind me of?

Actually, it appears to be heading the opposite way, south to the Airport.

It just went on 19th, which leads to the 101 to SFO.

Reporters are reporting they are heading up 19th to 280. Probably going to the airport.

They were ready for the Torch in Justin Herman plaza.

The Olympic torch was rerouted away from thousands of demonstrators and spectators who crowded the city's waterfront Wednesday to witness the flame's symbolic journey to the Beijing Games.
