Oh, the students booed the mayor

At the student walkout today, thousands walked to City Hall. L.A. Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa came out to speak to them. He uttered a few  bland words of support then said “when your parents protested, they went back to school after that.”

He was loudly booed. Just then, a contingent of 200 students walked in and got many cheers. The mayor kept talking, and got more boos.

The boos continued. He finally walked away.
