I suppose it's a post-9/11-thing, but it is kind of disappointing that you can't even see the President's car drive by. I was accidentally walking on a street which Bush was going to be taking through Baltimore and thought, what the heck, why don't I wait here and see the caravan go by? Well, they sent cops through with bullhorns saying that we all had to leave the area and that the President's car would never go by until we were all gone. I was tempted to see if they would really follow through on that threat, but then I realized that they would "leave" me if I didn't leave myself. So I did.
