There were purple ribbons tied to every vertical post along this street. I was trying to figure out what they symbolized; turns out it's a a bunch of different things.

You'd think they'd leave a sign or two with an explanation?

Hmm, Wikipedia alsopoints out - "worn by trade union members on Workers' Memorial Day (April 28), to commemorate workers killed, disabled, injured or made unwell by their work." - which was three days before; maybe I just hadn't noticed them?

There's also a Purple Ribbon Month, for Kaitlyn's Law, but that's not till August.
