The Los Angeles Police Department declared a
tactical alert Wednesday night in an attempt
to handle opponents of Proposition 8, who
marched from West Hollywood to Hollywood to
protest the passage of the initiative
defining marriage as between one man and one
woman.
Protesters marched together on streets in
West Hollywood and Hollywood. Several
protesters stopped at Hollywood Boulevard and
Highland Avenue, blocking traffic in the busy
intersection.
An additional group of about 500 protesters
gathered in the 6400 block of Sunset
Boulevard, near CNN's Los Angeles Bureau,
prompting the LAPD to declare a tactical
alert because of the need for additional
officers, some of whom were brought in from
other stations, Officer Jason Lee of the LAPD
Media Relations Section said.
Some of them were detained, but "the overall
indication is that the demonstrators and
marchers are peaceful," Lee said.
Initially, a crowd estimated by a sheriff's
lieutenant at 2,500 gathered at Santa Monica
and San Vicente boulevards to criticize
passage of the
measure in Tuesday's election.
Tom Trujillo carried a sign saying, "Not a
marriage issue, not a God issue, not a gay
issue, just a civil right."
The U.S. Supreme Court unanimously struck
down laws banning interracial marriage in
1967.
"No third-party people should come in and be
able to interfere," Alicia Miles said.
