Counterprotest "Yes on 8" rally on El Camino in Redwood City

[firecat]

About 10 minutes ago I drove along El Camino in Redwood City and saw a lot of people with "Yes on 8" signs. They were concentrated at El Camino & Jefferson, and El Camino & Whipple.

I picked up a couple of "No on 8" signs at the Democratic Party Headquarters at El Camino near San Carlos Ave. in San Carlos.

Later today the OH (and I, if I am not feeling too chicken) may go out to do our own demonstration.

ETA: The OH reports that the "No on 8" office does not want people counterdemonstrating.

Really? Why not??

Also, what does "ETA" stand for? I know it only as "estimated time of arrival".

I don't know. I would assume they don't want to risk violence, want to support people's right to demonstrate, don't want to risk additional media attention for "Yes on 8," things like that.
