UPDATE: We had many volunteers for peacekeeping show up for this march!
Thanks to all that helped!

The March turned out a few hundred childrens protesters and the Mayor of the City of Seattle made a speech!

When the LC Team first got there this morning, was only a few spectators,
we gathered with the others as we discussed the march routes and many other details.
The copy of the signed permit was in the backpack of one of our friends
if any official were to ask for it.
There was a briefing right before the march which we took part in
we met with the sergeant in charge of the Seattle city police
department 'paul' where he acknowledged the permit
that was on file and signed and wanted to ensure that the twenty or so cops were there to help the march
and display the free speech rights. Then comfirmed the march route to the federal building
and told him we are on schedule. we took are spots along the route

During the march, the LC Team had its first encounter with the minutemen org, that were
yelling at the children as they chanted and marched down the center of the Seattle streets.
The peacekeepers watched them but they remained on the other side of the street.
At the end of the march we gathered the protesters to the federal building
and we began to give the speeches.
the Seattle mayor showed up and delivered a brief speech as well.
