kidsmoke Posted January 20, 2018 Share Posted January 20, 2018 The anniversary of us coming under trump's tiny thumb is nothing to celebrate, but the coming together of so many in resistance is! So I'll be out there tomorrow, marching in L.A.Voting with my face! Hello, count me please, I'm here. I support a much saner government as soon as possible because I'm tired of all this "winning"! How about the rest of you? Are you marching somewhere? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

NoJ Posted January 20, 2018 Share Posted January 20, 2018 Me and my family marched in Chicago. Crowd didn't appear to be the same massive size as last year but there were still a lot of folks and a lot of smiles and good positive intelligent energy. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
lost highway Posted January 21, 2018 Share Posted January 21, 2018 My daughter and I dropped off my wife and her friend in downtown Denver. Last year both of the girls in my family marched, but alas our little Edie is a toddler and hasn't the patience to be worn like a backpack. It sounds like it was a pretty big display with some positive vibes, solidarity and everything you'd want out of such a political occasion. Favorite sign she spotted: "Tweet people how you want to be tweeted". Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I read that there were more people yesterday than there was last year. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
NoJ Posted January 21, 2018 Share Posted January 21, 2018 I read that too. My wife and I sorta chuckled over it. Based on our experience last year (it was actually scary crowded at one point) and our experience yesterday (we watched the entire march go by while hanging out in Federal plaza), there appeared to be much less people this year. I could be wrong, who knows. It was still cool and I hope it gave the entire GOP administration heartburn and palpitations. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
uncool2pillow Posted January 21, 2018 Share Posted January 21, 2018 We (my wife, sixth graders and me) marched last year. We sat it out yesterday, but we will be very motivated come fall to work and vote for Democratic candidates at every level. I say this as someone who, up until Trump won the nomination, was a registered Republican. I have watched the GOP in Iowa and in the nation push the most radical agenda of my lifetime. I have some conservative tendencies, but this current incarnation of the GOP is beyond the pale. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Lammycat Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 Marched in Denver with my wife and two of our kids an in-laws. Nice weather! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
twoshedsjackson Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 Marched in Hartford, CT with my wife & daughters. I’d estimate the crowd was at least as big as last year. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ih8music Posted July 1, 2018 Share Posted July 1, 2018 We had a great time marching for families in Long Beach this morning. That's me w/ my 2 awesome kids, my 1st generation Mexican-American wife, and my once-illegal mother-in-law who became a citizen under Reagan's amnesty program in the mid 80's. My mother-in-law came to the US in '69 with 3 little kids. My wife was the first of 2 born here. Of those 5 kids, she raised a Marine (who later became a master electrician), a labor & delivery nurse (RN), a bilingual elementary school teacher, a university professor (my wife), and a doctor (the baby of the family, of course). Fuck anyone who says "illegals" are bad for America and fuck anyone who thinks it's ok to pull kids away from their families solely because of their immigration status.

My husband and I marched in L.A. and as usual, the march gave me back my faith in humanity! There are many, many good and decent Americans who oppose the travesties of this government. PS - I love your hat! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ih8music Posted July 2, 2018 Share Posted July 2, 2018 PS - I love your hat! Lol, thanks. I was bummed that no one commented to me about it, but I think that's largely due to my height. Oh well, I still have the t-shirt and bumper sticker for that! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
