Interesting facts emerge this afternoon regarding this incident.

It was reported in the local TV News here tonight on the three
people who climbed the Golden Gate Bridge and flew those
"Free Tibet" banners (they were massive, by the way -- see
this picture:

The Golden Gate security crew spokesperson said that they were
already on "Heightened Alert" beginning today, so that kind of
brings into question the security implications -- consider if
they were terrorists.

They brought their climbing gear, and those massive banners, across
the pedestrian walkway entrance, in baby carriages.

Go figure.

The oldest trick in the book.
