Get Milk somewhere besides Cinemark, protesters demand

In the 1970s, San Francisco had the first openly gay man to be elected to public office on its board of supervisors. His name was Harvey Milk, and one of the things he did best was organize protests. A movie about his life is coming out here December 12, and if you’re one of the people who showed up at this month’s protest against California’s gay-marriage ban, which attracted hundreds of sympathetic people to the J.C. Nichols Memorial Fountain on the Plaza, you might want to see it. But this time, protesters ask that you avoid the Plaza.
