Bozo protesters (speaking of stupidity)

I was going to post about this even before I saw the stupidity thread!

This is the third day in a row when a small section of a street I drive on to get to work has been blocked by police cars to enable some sort of protest. (For those familiar with that part of Philly, it's the intersection of Woodbine and Wynnefield.)

Now, what irks me is, I don't have a clue what is being protested. At least today the guy doing the protesting was holding his sign up. When I went by yesterday he was talking to one of the cops and the sign was leaning against his leg. The sign was done on a piece of slightly rumpled brown corrugated cardboard with black magic marker, and between the less than ideal contrast and not nearly big enough lettering, I had no clue what the sign said.

Come on, people, if you're going to fscking disrupt traffic to protest some injustice, make sure everybody can tell exactly what it is that's got you hot & bothered.

[edited to crrect the spelling of one of the streets]
