We were able to obtain these prosecution photos during the trial. Officer Paladino has finally released Esther from a painful arm-bar. The sign (obscured by a balloon from the Chipotle parade unit passing beside us) reads KIDS NOT BOMBS.
Esther asks the police officers why they are initiating such violence.
Esther is then pulled by the arm to the ground for having interfered.
Elizabeth, whom the police pretended was the peace marcher seen sitting down, was still leaning into the Bookmobile trying to find her walking cane.
I’m lost. I realize that sign’s text was part of the mischaracterization of the marchers, but the sign’s correct text has been in public eyes for a while now, including this video (where the text has no obstruction):

Why is that sign still in debate?
