So for the 7 blocks that were closed off you saw a dozen people on the road, holy crap I take everything back, how did they move around?

I do not subscribe to the "Ric McIvor" junk, I read about it and saw pictures of the event including the line of traffic and people on the paths and road. Just because you were not there does not mean that you do not know anything about it. Do you believe things you see in the news? Were you there to say that they are true? If not how do you know they are right?
Way to misquote me. Where did I say I only saw a dozen people on the road? I said I saw way MORE than a dozen in the brief time I was there.

I don't even understand your next paragraph, I am actually getting confused trying to understand what you are saying here. You are saying you saw it on the news, but then go on to question if what we see in the media is the truth? Do you believe I (who has no personal stake in this festival) would lie about seeing more than a dozen people using the road just to prove you wrong and use it to further support those that had no problem with this event?

Do I believe everything I see on the news? Absolutely not, especially in light of seeing how certain things in this city have been potrayed by all levels of media lately. The only way to know the full truth is to go and find out for yourself if the subject interests you enough.
