May Day, Downtown Los Angeles 2008

Ok playing some catch up here obviously, given its now early August. After last year's "LAPD smackdown in the park" most were on edge to see how this year's May Day would turn out. Well Police Chief Bratton came out, a giant LAPD electronic billboard read "Welcome to May Day 2008: Please Follow Police Orders", and even the punx were co-opted by American Apparel and its bullshit legalization campaign. Soft politics unite!
