I hope Siegfried decided to do the right thing

There was a protest in central Boston today. What was it about?

I could hear the chanting, but see nothing, and didn't have the time to go looking. It sounded like "Left, right, Siegfried, do the right thing!"-- over and over for twenty minutes. What was that about?

Soul Calibur?

I probably should have said more than that.
Siegfried is a character in the game Soul Calibur 3 (and 4), and it sounded like they were yelling about moving left and right. Perhaps this was some kind of video game related flash mob.

The leader yelling through the bullhorn seemed pretty damn serious for a flash mob -- plus I'd be surprised if I was actually hearing them correctly. Still, that might explain why I don't see any events listings about it where I usually do.
