See the [Creative Commons] definition of what this means. "Photos (c) Bruce Guthrie" is fine for attribution. (Commercial use folks including AI scrapers can of course contact me.) Feel free to use in publications and pages with attribution but you don't have permission to sell the photos themselves. A free copy of any printed publication using any photographs is requested.

I love well-behaved spiders! They are, in fact, how most people find my site. Unfortunately, my network has a limited bandwidth and pictures take up bandwidth. Spiders ask for lots and lots of pages and chew up lots and lots of bandwidth which slows things down considerably for regular folk. To counter this, you'll see all the text on the page but the images are being suppressed. Also, some system options like merges are being blocked for you.
Note: Permission is NOT granted for spiders, robots, etc to use the site for AI-generation purposes. I'm sure you're thrilled by your ability to make revenue from my work but there's nothing in that for my human users or for me.
If you are in fact human, please email me at guthrie.bruce@gmail.com and I can check if your designation was made in error. Given your number of hits, that's unlikely but what the hell.

Help? The Medium (Email) links are for screen viewing and emailing. You'll want bigger sizes for printing. [Click here for additional help]

Specific picture descriptions: Photos above with "i" icons next to the bracketed sequence numbers (e.g. "[1] ") are described as follows:
1. FLOYDW_201009_01.JPG: The two stickers on his guitar: "Friday" and "I Voted"
2. FLOYDW_201015_01.JPG: Mr. President Trump & First Lady Melania Welcome to 2020 Let's finish securing the United States boorders [sic] from any one [sic] opposing our great country. Security first. 9=11 [sic] needs your assistance 25 minutes not to waste your time Let's make American Great Thank you Special Events 4A Life Time Commander & Chief
3. FLOYDW_201015_07.JPG: Shofars have made been showing up a lot since Ruth Bader Ginsburg died.
4. FLOYDW_201021_08.JPG: False Idol
5. FLOYDW_201021_12.JPG: Trump digs his own grave We cannot say we did not know
6. FLOYDW_201021_13.JPG: Do not let Trump get away with murder
7. FLOYDW_201021_14.JPG: Don Folden of DCBlackTours.com
8. FLOYDW_201021_20.JPG: Number of days until the election: 13 The guy's hat says "Resign Motherf---er"
9. FLOYDW_201021_24.JPG: Take Trump's knee off America's neck in November!
10. FLOYDW_201102_014.JPG: Stop Hating Each Other Because You Disagree DCBlackTours.com [Don Folden of DCBlackTours.com]
11. FLOYDW_201114_019.JPG: Trumpsters show up
12. FLOYDW_201114_038.JPG: Stop Hating Each Other Because you disagree... DCBlackTours.com [Don Folden]
13. FLOYDW_201114_052.JPG: I walked over to the Plaza with this guy. He was in town for a conference.
14. FLOYDW_201114_099.JPG: Presumably antifa types
15. FLOYDW_201213_017.JPG: This was weird. There was a bicycle cordon and I people said the BLM Plaza area was now reserved for Blacks only and that entering the Plaza would be disrespectful of Blacks. I said I just wanted to take photos and I was told that I was doing cultural appropriation. That idiocy, which was presumably in place to protect the Plaza from Trumpsters still here after the previous day's Losers March, lasted for an hour or so.
16. FLOYDW_201213_055.JPG: F--- Trump and F--- you for voting for him
17. FLOYDW_201213_079.JPG: These guys wanted to enter the plaza. The chubby guy's shirt says "Proud Boys DC Street Sweepers 2020". The other one says "6MWE". This an anti-Semitic slogan by the pro-Nazis meaning "6 million wasn't enough", as in the Holocaust should have killed more Jews.
18. FLOYDW_201213_113.JPG: Another Trumpster.
19. FLOYDW_201213_214.JPG: This woman wanted to come into the Plaza. Officially, they were hostile to her because she didn't have a mask on. They said they had offered her one and she refused it. Realistically, anyone without a mask is presumed to be a Trumpster.
20. FLOYDW_201213_224.JPG: Notice there's a second person not wearing a mask as well.
21. FLOYDW_201213_234.JPG: Don Folden of DCBlackTours.com talking maskless to a deaf person who needed to read lips. Given hopefully universal mask usage, she was definitely having a tough time during COVID-19.
22. FLOYDW_201213_255.JPG: Eventually she put a mask on and left.
23. FLOYDW_201213_261.JPG: More crowds coming to yell at the Proud Boy supporters.
24. FLOYDW_201213_273.JPG: A discarded face shield.
25. FLOYDW_201213_282.JPG: People continued to harass the lady even as she tried to leave.
26. FLOYDW_201213_295.JPG: These folks were trying to proselytize. One of them caught me later and we had a brief discussion. I said I believed in science and she implied that had the same validity for truth as her belief in the bible fantasies did. This is pretty much the story of QAnon.
27. FLOYDW_201213_299.JPG: More yelling.
28. FLOYDW_201213_325.JPG: Fake News shirt
29. FLOYDW_201213_327.JPG: Escape Control shirt. It may sound political but it's a music group.
30. FLOYDW_201213_330.JPG: It's Colombia, not Columbia [There was a social media campaign launched by Emilio Pombo to let people know how to spell the name of his country correctly. This shirt is one of the results of that campaign.]
31. FLOYDW_201213_342.JPG: This woman showed up and started sketching.
32. FLOYDW_201213_363.JPG: William Thomas Memorial White House Anti-Nuclear Peace Vigil
33. FLOYDW_201213_404.JPG: Stop Hating Each Other Because you disagree... DCBlackTours.com [ Don Folden, with his signs recommending getting along, got in a yelling match with one of the protesters who don't actually believe in that. ]
