So, just who are these amazing skaters? They are:
Candice Heiden, a well known Los Angeles roller girl who used to run the blog We RollerSkate(which is no longer viewable). She was also one of the skaters featured in Moby’s music video The Perfect Life (featuring vocals by Wayne Coyne of the Flaming Lips). A look at Heiden’s YouTube channel shows that she has made a few educational/instructional videos on roller skating as well.
April Corley, a professional roller skate performer who served as Roller Skate Choreographer Assistant during Madonna’s Confessions Tour, was one of the principle skate performers inMadonna’s “Sorry” music video and placed 2nd in World Class Pairs at the 1996 Artistic Roller Skating Nationals – Junior and Senior World Team Presentation.
Appelusa McGlynn, another professional roller skate performer, member of the Screen Actors Guild and an Artistic Roller Skating Coach at Northridge Skateland (1999-present) who has appeared as a skater in numerous commercials, television shows and films such as That 70’s Show, Glee and Gingerdead Man 3. She also coached for two distinct productions of Xanadu, one at Pepperdine University and one at The Met Theatre.
I kinda figured these ladies were not amateur light-weights.

Tom,
Hopefully, you were unaware and do not share the the crowd's sentiment, that Lally referenced. They were shouting, "What do we want, DEAD COPS.
I see that Lally and the protest marchers got their wish. 2 cops were killed, shot in the head in NYC.
