No it wasn't save the planet or some faction or other's rights or even politics, it was the police themselves demonstrating. Everyone who was on duty was marshalling all the rest of the off duty cops who were demonstrating. It seems the mayor was dragging his heels sorting out their contract (and therefore their pay). Didn't see any pepper spray or rubber bullets in evidence ... :rofl:
