In a city of 1.3+ million people, there was ONE well-orchestrated "picketing" protest. But few fast food workers were present in the truly pathetic 100 person San Diego turnout. There were almost as many media folks there as there were protesters.
The picketers were the usual cabal of aging hippies, young college economic illiterates ("People Over Profits", when the increased cost would be passed through to the CUSTOMERS), SEIU labor union members (NOT in the fast food business), union-controlled politicians and a handful of OFF-DUTY fast food workers (three claimed to actually be on strike, but likely were not, one works there only 4 hours a week).
