As this is America I cannot be sure of the answer, but if it were the UK, it would be a protest against politicians in general and the government in particular trying to force their/its orthodoxy on free thinking citizens.

Never of girls with big bulges in their blouses.

…and look forward to meeting you in Cóito.

I wish you had been able to take a wider picture showing the size of the crowd. From this picture I got that it rained and that folk cared enough to be there in the rain.

I see the placard about politics, but, while eloquent in what it says, it does not get down to sound bite level to describe the true anger behind the protest.

How large was the crowd? Were any significant speeches made? Did anyone come out to represent City Hall and what did they say?
