Tax March San Francisco - April 15, 2017

Don't listen to the tweets of the puffy orange man beneath the fluffy comb-over. the majority of the U.S. wants to see his tax returns. He won't reveal what every President in the past four decades has revealed—where his money comes from and where it goes. This tax day, thousands of people across the nation marched with their funny homemade signs. And the general consensus was that this guy's a crook, probably dealing with a lot of other crooks, besides being a liar and a tax cheat. Plus he's about to make tax policies that will most likely benefit him and his wealthy administration greatly. At least that was the summary I gathered from the hundreds of homemade signs of the day.

A brief glimpse of this weekend's march. I call this clip "Cowardly Lyin'":




Some great signage and great spirit. Thank you Indivisible for organizing. Thank you volunteers, marchers and the SFPD. It's inspiring to be with so many great sign-makers.

The photogenic giant inflatable chicken inspired us all



House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi is a resistance leader in person and online


The March started in the Civic Center and headed down Market Street

A science-based protest of sorts, with bobble eyes

My favorite sign: "I AM MISSING PLAYOFF HOCKEY TO PROTEST OUR PRESIDENT"










"RELEASE THE TAXES" did its duty before falling out of my bag to go to the lost protest-sign graveyard of demonstration mythology (most likely a filthy BART-station stairwell).

With respect to the late great Ray Harryhausen
