Darwin’s Law: Antiwar protester falls to death from Golden Gate
2003-03-19
A man protesting the looming U.S. war on Iraq fell to his death from San Francisco's famed Golden Gate Bridge on Wednesday as he was hanging a banner, officials said.
"No blood for oooiiiiiiillllllllllllllll...{splash}"
"He appears to have been hanging a banner of some kind," said California Highway Patrol officer Timothy Willock, trying to keep a straight face. "We're not sure if he decided to jump or slipped while he was, you know, hanging the banner. That's unclear right now." Anti-war sentiment is strong in the San Francisco Bay Area but the death of the man in his 30s was the first related to the latest protests over the U.S.-led war against Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein.
Heh heh - I feel really bad about this....idiot
"What the hell does 'No blood for splat!' mean?"

#5  Notice: people here could be required to assist security forces, should protesters hamper the operation of government during this war. If you see a police officer who appears about to be overwhelmed, then don't wait for a UN resolution before you help. But don't do anything unless you are asked to do it.
