[In the video: the person with the sign OUT -- IN at 4:15 ] DougLaPierre? was one of those people: he was a school teacher and worried re loosing his job, MikeSangster was the other and he did it to support Doug.1

TumaYoung writes: That's me [at 0:33, under the D in "Dress", and with the green sign on the left at 1:59]. My sign said “Dear John Buchanan: let’s bury the hatchet, smoke the peace pipe and powwow on human rights.” I thought I was being very clever and LynnMurphy just looked at it and stated that she was glad I wrote the sign and that nobody else could write it like that.2
