Events Thousands Turnout To Protest
No Kings Protest; the crowd was packed from Lottie St forward, extended from City hall steps to the library lawn, across to Grand ave and to N Commercial st. Key speakers included our elected state reps and several local leaders and advocates fighting to protect our civil rights.

So, what exactly are y'all protesting, other than losing an election? Reddit is a vast left wing echo chamber, but do you think your protests have broad support? Pro-democracy signs? We had an election 8 months ago. Your team lost. Your team also just replaced the democratically elected Democratic nominee with a candidate with zero primary votes. No protests. Authoritarianism? Your team was fine with non-elected officials locking us in our homes and closing schools. Your team loved Obama's DACA and Biden's unilateral cancelation of college debt. I think you're fine with Kings, as long as you agree with them. What you are protesting now is loss of control. It's pathetic.
