yes it was...

Soon as I asked, I looked again and saw the large cache of signs tucked into the right saddlebag of his bike and noticed the cammo pants.

Did they follow the lead of the carpenter's union and hire homeless people?

Isn't the guy on the bike banned poster "doubleA"?

If it is, his having to ride the ol' Schwinn 3 Speed to the protest goes a long way to explaining AA's hostility to women. 'Cause he's not going to be scoring much with the ladies on that ride.

That's funny.  Reminds me of Bill Paxton's line from "True Lies" about not being well endowed and not scoring much.

Lemme guess..."Laid off need beer" guy was Paul Tay?

from KOTV's website
"Paul Tay, a former mayoral candidate, was at the protest, mostly joking and videotaping those videotaping him. The number of media at the protest was about even with the number of protesters."

Protesters < reporters = FAIL

Fail was the media even running the story the day before and afterwards
