I wish i could tell you that. Theyre marching west on Market Street. I started covering this at noon today when the rally began on the steps of city hall. But it was clear pretty early on that they intended to go inside
Inside to occupy the 2 00 p. M. Supervisors meeting and that is what happened. When the board president announced the meeting would be adjourned until further notice the protesters stayed for a while and descended the steps to the central rotunda. Marchers from a rally that began in the mission, got to city hall and demonstrators took over the entrance standing on the security desks and raising the roof with whistles bull horns and chanting. Sheriffs deputies locked the front doors to city hall to keep more people from coming in. And at 2 30 the protest groups con verged on the first floors keeping them from joining up. Outside a woman told me that her family has been forced to move out of the city where she grew up. All my friends are doing the same. Having to move out of the city. Another woman wanted to be here because her son was shot and killed by San Francisco police in 2001 and last year she lost her home to foreclosure. My son is dead. My home is gone. All i got left is my soul
