So there's another big anti-beef rally tonight at 7 pm in downtown Gwangju. It's gotten to the point that I dread passing through the Chungjangno area because my eyes invariably fall on some Mad Bull Shit or other. When asked for comment on tonight's planned event, a foreigner named me said "Man fuck that shit." You'll see the effigy they used for the May 17th parade is still there, but with a few new decorations. Somebody, bless their soul, wrote "I love American beef" on it. And you'll see on the red cards that some want US Ambassador Alexander Vershbow "out" as well.

Brian, looks like you don't have to travel so far!
They've blocked off the street between the two rotaries in front of McDonalds, here in Suncheon. A stage has been set up and it looks like a good 'ole 'I hate American beef' concert is about to take place.
I only live two blocks away but can't be fucked checking out the concert and the mindless nimrods who attend.
No, I'm definitely not going to the rally. I go to Gwangju each Saturday morning for Korean class, and I cross Chungjangno and always see all kind of crap. Totally not in the mood to see any more rallies.
