He planned to pretend to be a protestor and disappear into the crowd? Irish_Dem Jun 14 #15

My first thought, but what do those slips of paper do for him? RandomNumbers Jun 14 #16

Yes I had posted that the protestors were on the hit list today perhaps. Irish_Dem Jun 14 #18

Either one, but this had to be a suicide mission, and he had to know RandomNumbers Jun 14 #20
