I was walking home from dinner along 6th Avenue after the Ferguson announcement and all of a sudden the street filled with marchers working their way to Times Square.
They stopped traffic and filled both the streets and sidewalks. It was all calm and friendly - but certainly very focused. And the traffic just all seemed to go with the flow - and then the police cars started coming in from all directions.
They were caught in the traffic snarl that was created as well and eventually just went with the flow and followed the marchers and the slow traffic up to Times Square and Central Park.
The following night we headed to a show and got out and on our way before the activities began again and they blocked our route out - but we were well on our way and watched it all on the news when we got back to Stamford CT.
