From an LA Times article:  Pro-Gay Activists Arrested at Presbyterian 
Convention

In one sense, Sunday's demonstration amounted to street theater. Soulforce 
leaders held several meetings in advance with church leaders to which 
police were invited. The protesters knew exactly where to stand to be 
arrested. Indeed, shortly before the choreographed protests, a Soulforce 
leader advised protesters they could not be arrested unless they had a 
photo ID.

"If anyone doesn't have an ID we'll get you arrested next time," the leader 
said, drawing laughter from the crowd.
