Protest turns violent

Streams of pepper spray flew through the air during a dicey moment of this anti-war march. Some of it wafted my way - it's very unpleasant stuff. I got off easy. At least two photographers received direct hits. This march began at the state capital and ended a block from the Xcel Energy Center shortly before the convention began. At one point, marchers were confronted by a group of Republican counter-protesters. I'll try to post that video later today.
