A weekend of protests...
Well, I'm sure you've already heard about the 500m - 750m who marched yesterday in LA to protest the rather illconsidered US House bill that would prohibit and criminalize anyone who aids or shelters an illegal immigrant.
Basically, it's Sensenbrenner's way of letting all the brown people in the US know 'just how he feels'.

This is a bunch of folks in SoCal letting Congressman Sensenbrenner know 'just how THEY feel'.
Yeah, there's been a ton written about this and there will likely be much more. However, one area of protest you're not likely to hear too much about (if anything) is Belarus where police confronted thousands yesterday and today protesting against the election of a tool box by the name of Lukashenko. The election was widely seen as fraudulent and Lukashenko is commonly derided as Russian President Vladimir Putin's puppet. Is it little wonder why the people of Minsk are taking to the streets?
All I did was go to the Travis County Democratic Convention yesterday. Damn, don't I feel like a loser...
