[Laura PourMeADrink]

23. Are u making a sign ?

[GP6971]

32. Not sure yet.

[msongs]

29. honolulu

[LeftInTX]

4. me

[Laura PourMeADrink]

10. In Austin? That's where we are going.. expecting 6700+

[LeftInTX]

13. San Antonio

Sounds like a good sized crowd, but Austin always has the crowds.

[Laura PourMeADrink]

26. Thinking ahead...stuck in redder than blood

part of Texas. But eventually hoping to be in a blue place. Is San Antonio mostly Dems?

[LeftInTX]

33. Depends where you live

It's not red....but our suburbs tend to be red. (Overall Bexar County votes Democratic - about 55% Democratic)

We've got poor areas where are blue, but newcomers may not want to live there....

It's blue enough where I live and I live in a decent part of town. (My precinct is 60% Republican...surrounding precincts tend to be more Democratic)

There really aren't rednecks within the city of San Antonio. It's more just middle of the road. I didn't see my first Trump bumper sticker until July 2017.

[Laura PourMeADrink]

21. :)

[GP6971]

7. We are. n/t

[Laura PourMeADrink]

[Laura PourMeADrink]

[Hekate]

58. Mine is going to be "Not in my name, you evil bastards" all caps.

Works for me.

[Heartstrings]

60. Mine says

"Grab 'em by the Midterms" on one side and "Vote like your life depends on it"

We have a heat advisory so it's highly unlikely I'll be able to go due to health issues....i'll be there in spirit though....

[jrthin]

70. The ORANGE SPY...Child Abuser. nt

[BigmanPigman]

15. Yep, in San Diego.

Last Sat there were 5,000 of us. Tomorrow there will be more. 10 days ago there were less than 10 marches planned, today there are over 750! We are strong and ready for the battle, the first of many this Summer and Fall as we fight for our country's survival! WE ARE THE TRUE PATRIOTS!

[Laura PourMeADrink]

19. So great! Just spent vacation

In Carlsbad. Very cool part of US! So thankful for California! Went to grocery there and getting/asking for a plastic bag was like you were so uncool.

Do you have good ideas for signs?

[BigmanPigman]

25. I am using my sign from last week

but I made a new sign for a friend. I saw a lot of them last Sat and liked them. They got green poster board and wrote "I Really Do Care, Do U?" worn like a placard. I also saw people wearing mylar emergency blankets like the children are given in the detention facilities so I got one of mine out of my Earthquake Emergency Kit and made it into a poncho.

[Laura PourMeADrink]

36. That's great ! I was thinking

Immigrants...trust me...wait 2 1/2 years

[BigmanPigman]

40. If you go to the site they have sample posters and images for

ideas there too. Go to the bottom of the page.

[Laura PourMeADrink]

45. Thanks BP!

[Laura PourMeADrink]

49. Like "November is coming"

[BigmanPigman]

55. I like that...

it is positive message (for our side) and somewhat threatening/serious (for the other side).

[KT2000]

16. yes - Port Angeles

where there is an ICE jail. So far 3 of us are carpooling. A few hundred have signed up but I expect more.

[Laura PourMeADrink]

31. Washington state? ICE jail? Jeez

[KT2000]

65. yes- it is a temporary holding

place.
The guy who was going to set something off at LAX years ago was caught here by customs agents. After that, they brought in about 25 border patrol agents. The boss wanted a bigger office and they had to have 50 agents before they could approve a new building. They hired 25 more agents even as one of the original 25 testified before Congress that they had nothing to do and were required to work overtime - doing nothing. They sit outside the Hispanic grocery store with binoculars, they do the same at agricultural fields, they cruise neighborhoods, hang out in the parking lots at parks.
They got the new building with a jail and iron bars surrounding it.

[sinkingfeeling]

17. Fayetteville, Arkansas at 6PM.

34. Times like this I realize how lucky I was to have found DU

We are from everywhere! All with our own different environment (own Repuke neighbors) and our own point of view!

[raging moderate]

35. Our town is having an immigration celebration, and a protest march.

I wanted to go to Washington, DC, but I couldn't find a secure way to get there. I am new in this area, and too old to learn to drive on those larger expressways. Then I found out my town is doing something pretty great.

[Laura PourMeADrink]

37. Wow that's great what town!

[raging moderate]

57. Frederick, MD.

R.I.S.E. and local Democrats are organizing activities tomorrow in a little shopping center called Vista.

Even made a sign

[Laura PourMeADrink]

48. What's your sign say?

[kimbutgar]

63. about immigrant Children vs Twitler being in cages

[MarvinGardens]

41. YES! Lawrenceville, GA

[Laura PourMeADrink]

46. Wow. Deep red?

[Aristus]

42. ME!

In Olympia Washington.

I’ll take pics.

[Atticus]

43. Champaign, Illinois. Be there or be square! nt

[Hekate]

44. I'll be at the County complex in my new town-- but I miss Santa Barbara. nt

[Laura PourMeADrink]

47. Santa Ynez valley our favorite place to go

So beautiful!

[Hekate]

56. Yes it is beautiful! We considered moving there instead of to Ventura, but finally realized...

...that I would have to bite my tongue and hide my politics the rest of my life. The Realtor who showed us all around was born and bred there, just a charming lady, used to ride her horse everywhere as as a kid and teen -- and had a bumper sticker in her office window that said "Hillary for Prison" a long time before the primaries were even thought of.

It's still a beautiful valley, and I'll still take my sis there to visit the wineries when she comes to visit!

[TomSlick]

[Trailrider1951]

61. I am, along with my daughter, son-in-law and their 3 kids

I will make a double-sided sign tonight:

Side 1: Taking children from their parents is CHILD ABUSE!

Side 2: Gov-sponsored CHILD ABUSE IS EVIL!

These evil fucking sociopaths need to be locked up, not children!!




Look for us in the Seatac area, Washington

[zbird]

62. Me, if I can get out of work early!

Either St. Joseph, Michigan or South Bend, Indiana. I work in South Bend, but live in Michigan. We have a group that meets at Fred Upton's St. Joe office every Tuesday at noon to protest and I would love to be there with my friends for this gathering.

[Upthevibe]

64. Yep! We will be taking the bus from Redondo Beach

to Downtown Los Angeles. There are many smaller marches around us that would be much more convenient but I think it's really important to have as large a crowd as possible at City Hall....
