Turd Reich: San Francisco dog owners lay minefield of poo for rightwing rally

Turd Reich: San Francisco dog owners lay minefield of poo for rightwing rally
Thursday 24 August 2017

When a group of far-right activists come to San Francisco to hold a rally this Saturday, they will be met by peace activists offering them flowers to wear in their hair.

Also, dog shit. Lots and lots of dog shit.

Hundreds of San Franciscans plan to prepare Crissy Field, the picturesque beach in the shadow of the Golden Gate Bridge where rightwing protest group Patriot Prayer will gather, with a generous carpeting of excrement.

“I just had this image of alt-right people stomping around in the poop,” Tuffy Tuffington said of the epiphany he had while walking Bob and Chuck, his two Patterdale terriers, and trying to think of the best way to respond to rightwing extremists in the wake of Charlottesville. “It seemed like a little bit of civil disobedience where we didn’t have to engage with them face to face.”

I really hope there is no trouble tomorrow. There is another, more progressive rally at the Civic Center tomorrow with Michael Franti, Brothers Comatose and others to combat the other right wing gathering.

I really think the "counter protestors" are being set up here. I hope they ignore the Nazis and go to the Civic instead.
