Live updates: ‘No Kings' protests against Trump happening in New York, New Jersey

This is not, as many would want to think, a "We all have a right to believe as we choose" discussion.
It's a discussion about who has the right to attack, denigrate, hurt, harm others and claim that God is behind these ugly actions.

Me: OK, let's not wear things that are easily identifiable.
Also me: Fuck, I look like a Fed.
I wish I had the skill to estimate crowd sizes, but there were a very good number of people there today.
Looking at the strip where we were on the map, if there was 1 person every 3 feet - there were easily 500 people there. That's pretty good, I'd say!
One thing I did not anticipate was how EMOTIONAL the whole thing would be for me.
It was a lot. A good "a lot" but damn, it was a lot.
I did witness some serious "old white guy" privilege when the cops came by.
We're all oozing away from them as they walked by to talk to the organizer, and as they were leaving, this guy goes, "Oh, officers, has something happened?"
And they just stopped and told him everything.
Me: 😳
I debated phone/no phone for yesterday and just decided to take it and leave it on.
Our rally was nearby and on sidewalks at a local shopping center that I frequent regularly.
Oh no, you've tracked me to somewhere I go all the time.
And overall, I did feel safer with my phone.
And I really, really hope that the organizers all over the country see the benefit of more, smaller rallies all over the place rather than just in city center type spots.
I suspect there were a lot of folks at my local rally that wouldn't have been able to go to DC or down to Manassas.
And tons of folks *saw* us, which wouldn't have happened if it was elsewhere.
Making these rallies accessible is so very important, and location is a huge part of that.

#NoKings movement reached ruby red Maryville, Missouri, today. A couple of hundred people were protesting peacefully in the 90-degree midday sunshine.
Well done, people. Even in the backward, republican strangle held counties, that still fly Confederate flags and shout 'Murica! I guess some are realizing that taking away Medicare, Medicaid, and social security benefits that were pre-paid for is a step too far for Jethro and Maggie to accept.
Pics can’t really show crowd size but I’d guess 2-3k at least. I’m used to counting crows so idk.
Mellow march and chants, cops did a good job blocking streets off. Seemed cathartic for people.
I saw exactly one counter protester, a crazy old grandpa Simpson type. He was even shaking his bony old fist at the sky #Maine #NoKings #Protest

Yeah, I'm so over it now. I'm just going to unfollow and possibly mute people who aren't CWing, or at the very least, hashtagging their political shit.
I know what's going on. Horrible, horrible shit is happening every day. I have my news sources that I trust, and I am getting my news in doses that won't drive my mental health into a chasm.
For the love of whatever it is that you personally find holy, CW your shit.
#NoKings in #Indianapolis happened on the day of our #Pride parade so hubs and I biked downtown for both.
It was beautiful. Probably bigger than the #RFRA protest from back in the day. And very kind
Despite the narrative the haters spin, folks who go to these are mostly friendly and pro-social and want to connect with other humans.
Also saw a lot more older normies at both events than I've seen in past years which I think is a heartening sign.

BTW still not going to any mass events, even outdoors, for health reasons. so everybody out here who by #disability, like me, or any other reason cannot make it to a #nokings #protest, i see you.
just know there’s a reason for a vanguardia, guardia and retaguardia.
the vanguard are at the forefront. la guardia spreads the front everywhere. yet, it’s usually the “backguard” ―the last to come in―, the ones who finish the job.
we will find our moments to fight and we will win.
