isn't it funny how there were no protests against Biden like this? I mean sure, specific issues were protested, but not this generalised homogenous rejection of his presidency - i wonder if that would be a good story for MSM? nahhhhh
By grabbing headlines about Pete Hegseths latest signal scandal, Pete Hegseth and Trump have once again outsmarted the media over the stock market in freefall.
The best way to deal with counter-protestors is to completely ignore them (unless of course they are engaged in assault so similar criminality). It takes the wind completely out of them. This is the preferred bystander training approach.
yeah, unless they're carrying megaphones, as occurred on 4/5 at the protest i attended. but they wanted to start something, so the cops got involved and that was the end of that.
We drowned them out. A few weeks ago, my husband started bringing mega DJ rig (goes to 11!) and we blasted dance music for 2 hours. They haven't been back since.
When Shitler began saying that Dems stole the 2020 election and the MAGAts were making all kinds of noise, every Sunday afternoon in Palm Springs there would be a parade of these fidiots driving down Hwy 111, flags a flying, horns a honking. I was filming them from our deck and out of the blue, someone on the street was playing a very loud laugh track as they went by. It was hilarious!
Me and a friend went to the protest in little Redwood City south of SF. I thought it was a large crowd and was surprised and touched when I saw all the people and hearing the massive amounts of honks from people driving the El Camino. Overwhelmingly it was my demographic which is Boomer. Don't diss us Boomer's and say we don't care.
My friend who is 7 years older, remembers the Vietnam War Protests and was a part of those as well. Let a groundswell be the change.
I live in a tiny town of mostly boomers. The April 19th protest was hearty, though small, but on the 5th, the protest was about a quarter of our population (about 20% if you count the population both in and outside city limits). We've had practice at this sort of thing!
For your approval.

No front page coverage in the Sunday Atlanta Journal Constitution either.
We're not gonna take it
No, we ain't gonna take it
We're not gonna take it anymore
We've got the right to choose, and
There ain't no way we'll lose it
This is our life, this is our song
We'll fight the powers that be, just
Don't pick on our destiny, 'cause
You don't know us, you don't belong
*verklempt*
Yay Realworld 'Merricah !
Smiling through tears is just about my favourite emotional state. <3
Thanks for the report and pictures. The arch at the top of the article was a great way to frame this story.
Awesome framing, right?
I love the pic of the child with the "outside voices" sign!

We had a bunch of protesters in Muskego. Muskego! A white flight refugee camp outside Milwaukee in deep red Waukesha Co.!

“Millions” Turn Uo At Nationwide Protests!
(Estimates state at least 2 million.)
Portland, Oregon- 10,000.
Be there May Day. See 50501.

Reddit is experiencing a major outage, if anyone gives a hoot.
Dominick's photos are the obvious proof that the historians *in other countries* will use to document the United States' slide into a dictatorship.
