“Some 10,000 people poured into downtown streets Thursday shouting protest chants and waving signs for immigration reform in a peaceful rally that saw none of the violence that marred last year’s May Day protest.

Organizers of the giant march - made up of three separate demonstrations that merged into one over the course of the day - said the mood among protesters and LAPD officers was friendly compared with clashes last year between police and protesters and journalists.”*
