We can’t stress enough that the best way to get to Saturday’s event is by way of public transportation, specifically the subway system. We are expecting a huge turnout, the kind that will bring traffic to a crawl and make parking a nightmare.
On the red/purple lines, the Civic Center station is closest to City Hall. On the gold line or Metrolink, Union Station is your best bet. Visit mta.net to plan your trip and avoid the hassles of bringing your car downtown.

Will we be able to carry signs with sticks onto the trains? I was stopped once before when they said the stick my sign was on was a potential weapon.

Paul:
As far as I understand it, the stick cannot be more that 1/4″ thick or it is considered a potential weapon.

Maybe this is the same law for rallies as subways?:
ItLos Angeles Municipal Code Section
55.07 makes it a misdemeanor to
possess during a demonstration, rally,
picket line or public assembly any
length of lumber, wood, or wood lath
unless it is one-fourth inch or less in
thickness and two inches or less in
width, or if not rectangular, not more
than three-quarters inch in its thickest
dimension.
