RNC 2008: "Peace Kite Dude" Had Everyone's Attention

Photo By John Hoff, September 1

The big guy behind the kite is not "Peace Kite Dude." The big guy is merely helping. PKD is the guy with a beard standing in the middle.

For video I shot of PKD and posted to YouTube, click here. The footage is actually from the September 2 Poor People's March--the point where the rally on the Capitol grounds merged with the poverty march--and PKD is in the middle of it all. There were many scenes where his kites hovered peacefully in the same skies as choppers, which stayed much higher above.

I'm amazed no police arrested PKD and beat the crap out of him for creating a "threat" to the police helicopters.
