Jesus Saves? Sí se puede?

So did anyone else see about 50 or 75 people in orange t-shirts marching down Pearl St. near 13th Avenue at about 6:30 or so Saturday night?

I wasn't sure if they were protesting, rallying or what, but some of them were shouting "Sí se puede!" the rallying cry for the United Farmworkers. It gets used by other people too (notably Barack Obama's English version, "Yes, we can!" and even more notably Jim Torrey's lame co-option of the phrase: "Yes, Eugene, we can!").

Anyone know who they were and what it was about? By the time I raced back over there with notepad and camera they were gone (and I ALWAYS have my pad and camera on me, but of course, not just then...)
