I went up to the Shut-up-a-thon earlier, and the subway was positively eerie at 3:30 PM-- I was the only person in my subway car-- the D train from West 4th-- that in itself was pretty amazing! Crowd of about a thousand people at the demo chanting, "Fox, SHUT UP!" both within the police "pen" and on the street corners. You could hear the "shut up"s echoing down inside the 47-50th Street subway station. Gorgeous!
I left as it was starting to get a little tense with a million cops and went downtown.
Right now there is a lot happening both in Midtown in Herald Square and down in Union Square.
I can hear many, many sirens heading north, even down here and an unusually large amount of helicopters makin' the rounds.
