A hard blockade in the center is reinforcing the entire "Funk the War" SDS march in this position.

A unit of riot cops approached with batons out-but suddenly reversed course and withdrew.

This is in the aftermath of paint bombs at Bechtel and a protest of hundreds at the 14th and L st military recruiter. At one point Capt harold threatened an SDS activist with "inciting to riot" charges if anyone in that march blocked the streets again.

Earlier yet, Potomac Earth First! staged a secondary blockade on 13th st to relieve pressure on a blockade at 13th and l sts outside the AmeriKKKan Petroleum Institute.
