Going to D.C. For The Inauguration & I haven't felt this good in days...

[kpete]

WE ARE GOING TO PROTEST "That bad man" (words of my 5 yr old granddaughter)

?w=500&h=207

Going to go with mr pete and the entire family, including the grandchildren.
We will be meeting with good friends, designing signs, hugging and marching with purpose.
Suddenly, I feel empowered.

peace,
kpete

1. I'll be there too!

[Kittycow]

2. Thank you!

[femmocrat]

3. I'm going too!

Learning about the march helped me to crawl out from under the bed. I was pleasantly surprised to find kindred spirits even here in trumpland!

4. Doing it on a Saturday puts it in the realm of a purely symbolic protest (not that those

are entirely without value, mind you). But a Saturday protest will be easily ignored by the media and will inconvenience none of the fascists. Still, there is psychological value in solidarity. Now a protest of a million during the Inauguration . . . ? That I would pay to see.

[kpete]

6. We are marching on Inauguration day as well

and every other chance we get for the next 4 years


peace,
kp

7. Good! Everyone here should read Norman Mailer's "The Armies of the Night" to learn

about how mass protests can actually scare the shit out of the establishment.

I'm in California and am toying with the idea of going to D.C. for Inauguration. Haven't made the decision yet.

[kpete]

8. We are all from California

We will fight

our family has never been SO united politically
even Republican Grammy is on board

peace,

17. Have one sign note that you're part of the majority 64,914,929 who voted for HRC

[pipi_k]

22. Well that's at least

one good reason to watch the inauguration.

Although if the protest doesn't make the national news, I won't bother unless I hear that a spaceship came out of nowhere and made a couple of key abductions.

[Old Vet]

20. It will be very hard to ignore a protest of this size..........

If I had the means to attend I would be there for sure, Kick some ass ladies

[Frustratedlady]

5. Be safe and enjoy! eom

[Canoe52]

9. Good for you!

[turbinetree]

10. I'm going with a sign that says

Whats does U.S. Supreme Court Justice John Roberts & Donald Trump have in Common

There both Racists

[vanlassie]

14. But spell "they're" right, Ok?

[turbinetree]

23. I forgot, it's like to, too, two

Thanks



I hope my sign is a hit, and its shows up on the nightly news, because they MSM are going to show the "normalizing" of racists standing together on that "stage" while he is being sworn in by a racists and the racists fascist

11. Please - take a few steps and hold your sign a little high for a moment for me!

I'm unable to go, but I am so thankful that there are others who can!

I'm a 57-year old pro-choice woman who lives in a Texas, and I am scared every morning that I wake up because I know women's rights are eroding faster than ever now. I won't ever be scarred by the need of an abortion because of my age. But I worry very much for younger women who may need safe access. I worry about their physical safety, and I worry about the mental toll that all of the idiots preaching against their decisions may take on the mental health of those young women.

So, please. A few steps for me and my generation. Thank you in advance!

24. This sign is going to be over three foot long and three foot high

it's going to be on white board with big old black letters

I just wonder if there is going to be "zones of free speech"

and this is for all of the generations that have protested ever since Nam, Standing Rock (my brother and sisters, and what they are enduring), WTO, ect.......

This sign is a aftermath of 45 years of racist insults that people have had and this country and will now have two racists looking at each other and winking while swearing in from a racist bigot in the U.S. Supreme Court and a serial predator

[IrishEyes]

12. Thanks for letting me know about it.

I only live four hours away. I will see if it is possible for me to go.

[lillypaddle]

13. Yeah!

Go get 'em!

[lillypaddle]

15. To all those going

Way to represent!!!!

[mountain grammy]

16. I'll be there too!

[mainer]

18. What is the plan for inauguration day, 1/20?

We'll be there for both days.

[hurple]

19. during the swearing in...

You should ALL turn your backs on the ceremony.

Maybe even boo and jeer through the whole thing too.

[Bad Dog]

21. Father Ted cornered the market on protest signs.
