There Were Dozens of Them in Times Square...Against the War: There were dozens of them. Youngish, somewhat seedy, and each wearing a black band of mourning on his left sleeve. They were gathered in Times Square to demonstrate against the war. "Peace, peace, we want peace," they chanted. It was rush hour in the city. Thick traffic. A slight rain fell. "Hey, hey, LBJ, how many soldiers did you kill today?" They marched in a tight oval. Some carried posters. One, a hunched chap with a beret, carried something he claimed to be printed in blood. "Not my blood," he barked. "You kidding? I'm a lover, not a fighter." His name was Al, 30 years old, fat-fleshed, and complexion like a white sidewall tire. He was the leader, apparently, for he was not marching and his feet did not hurt. He was leaning on a brick store-front and handing out leaflets..
