my sister and i were roaming around her neighbourhood in downtown toronto this afternoon and came across a protest in front of the US embassy. wondering what the protest was about this time, we asked one of the people milling about. it was a rally protesting the US government and other western nations to not interfere in whatever is happening in ethiopia. when i asked the man what is happening in ethiopia, he said he didn't know, he just came to join. 😜
we stayed well away from the protestors when we spotted this guy standing on one of the benches, well away from his compatriots. the way he stood and not moving, i thought he was trying to make a statement, because for a long time, he was just standing there and not moving. when we walked past him, thunderation! he was just texting! 🤣 but i'll grant him that perhaps it's about their cause he was texting about.
A wonderful capture and edit, very informative narrative as usual. Our country must be the nr. 1 as far as protesting goes, unfortunately always very violent! Most don't know what it is all about, but they join in anyway.
Well, if the US politicians kept their noses in their own business, the world would look so much different, I'll grant the protesters that. As for this particular individual, maybe he was texting his contacts to join the protest.
What a terrific psychological study the beahviour of these protesters would make!
Well he has great taste in clothes. @monikozi I live in America and I couldn’t agree with you more. We need to let the world take care of itself, it will be very fine without our meddling (and money, and the problems that causes). We need to focus on our country!
The photo is fabulous. You definitely chose a very colorful subject for your application of SC. He does look as if he is a little uninvolved but perhaps your assumption is correct that he was texting someone else about their cause.

When do we want it? Yesterday!
Great edit, glad you stayed safe
Well put @louannwarren
