On my way downtown yesterday, the bus was flagged over to the side of 14th by a woman dressed in nursing scrubs. Everyone of course looked up from their morning papers to see what was the fuss. The nurse warned the driver that there was a woman in an American flag bandana, waiting at the next stop and she was NOT to be let on the bus!!
We all waited with eyes peeled as we passed two police officers getting out of their car and came to the next stop. The bandana woman was waiting as promised.
She knocked on the folding bus door, and can you believe it, he didn't open it!?! So she started cursing and throwing a fit, while the officers slowly approached her, with hands on hips (not making it up people).
I wanted to stand up and scream: "Hello!! Let her on! We're for the revolution! This could be her big escape, a chance to get free and start over, damn the man!!"
But I didn't and the 54 rolled on. The driver chuckled to himself and said, "That girl's always gettin in trouble..."
