1. Any good signs I could use for inspiration?

[BigmanPigman]

3. I saw a lot of Lock Him Up signs.

I had several people take photos of my signs (two sided). I had him behind bars on the one side and with Hitler hair and moustache and a red clown nose on the other side. There were peaches with his face on them. One had "Naughty boys get impeached, ask Santa".

[likesmountains 52]

4. Great, thanks!

[Dunnjen]

5. Impeach rally

In going with STOP GOP TRE45ON and if I have time for side 2, IMPEACH PUTIN'S PUPPET

[likesmountains 52]

8. Like those!

[Grokenstein]

15. Showing my age, but

I like "The (Wannabe) King is a FINK."

[OhNo-Really]

26. Old enough to remember that! My dad roared w/laughter

[Blue_playwright]

37. I used to love that cartoon! Nt

[Doitnow]

23. You don't go to jail for the good things you do.

[handmade34]

27. I'm thinking of using...

"Be a Greta, not a Trump"

saw that on a tweet and thought it was good

[LakeArenal]

2. Thanks

[Catch2.2]

7. I'm one of the co-hosts

For a "Nobody is Above the Law" rally Tuesday at noon in Greenville, SC. At this time, we have 377 people signed up. Yeah, that Greenville. We are one of four rallies in the state. We're hoping to add people willing to work to help get Democrats elected and take down Lindsey Graham.

[OhNo-Really]

28. ✨🙏✨🙏✨🙏✨🙏✨🙏✨

[stage left]

49. I like your Dream Protest Rally.

Only somebody would have to crank me back up.

[Nitram]

9. I'm going to one in Charlottesville, Virginia on Tuesday.

[llmart]

10. Thank you for putting yourself out there and persisting.

From what I've seen on DU, you are quite the activist. You make DU proud!

[BigmanPigman]

18. I haven't been to many this year since my health is finally

going down hill but this was my 26th "protest" since Nov., 2016. I hope to go to the Women's March Jan., 18th, 2020. The theme this year is Women Rising!

[handmade34]

29. just got this email...

I'd say meet-up time but if it is half as crazy as '17 it will be impossible...

38. I remember reading and seeing videos of people on planes

flying to DC and the whole plane was a sea of pink hats. The pilots turned on pink colored aisle lights to salute them. I'm going to the one in San Diego again (4th one).

I bet this year will be bigger than last year's since it will be around the time the Senate gets the impeachment case and people will be pissed that the misogynistic GOP are cheating their way to another victory. The turnout for the impeachment protest yesterday was pretty good considering the timing and how quickly it came together. If that is any indication about the general attitude right now I see many pink hats hitting the streets in Jan., 2020.

[BadGimp]

11. Thanks for the heads up! Signed up for my town...

Now is the time, We're the people!

[BigmanPigman]

20. Cool!

From what I have experienced we are the majority. Now we have to call the GOP Senators like we did during the ACA crisis.

[MRDAWG]

12. Where are you? **

*

[BigmanPigman]

17. San Diego.

[Hermit-The-Prog]

13. Thank you!

Now, where are the pictures?!?

Gonna be lousy weather for the nearest (~1 hour away) protest around here.

[BigmanPigman]

16. I never take pictures since I am too busy shouting and holding

my sign. It is pretty heavy duty with a dowel and cardboard. I hold it over my head the whole time and spin it around. Today was very windy and I almost got knocked over several times. Today there was a woman speaker who was "Nancy" wearing a white suit and she spoke and gestured just like the real deal. Today I clapped for her and I copied the "Nancy" type of clap with extended arms like she did at the State of the Union Address so I put my sign down for that.

[rurallib]

14. Passing it along. Thank you so much

[bucolic_frolic]

21. High crimes and misdemeanors

Presidents shouldn't be impeached for political acts. That's for the ballot box.

I understand the DOJ policy opinion that sitting presidents can't be indicted. Because presidents have work to do, and opposition parties could all but fabricate crimes to keep them busy and make political points.

But felonies that would convict ordinary citizens in an ordinary US jurisdiction should be indictable in ordinary courts of law if only because as we see here, the Senate is a miserable place to find an impartial jury!

[duhneece]

22. Our rural and red county has ours tomorrow noon

Alamogordo New Mexico’s Rally is tomorrow noon so some can go to bigger one in Las Cruces later. We’re thrilled our Congresswoman Xochitl Small announces she supports impeachment.

[Karma13612]

24. Kind wish our local one

1/2 hour away from where I live,

Was not at 5:30 PM

Dark, forcast is for 20 Degrees F, 1-3 inches of snow forcast.

Not my idea of ‘standing outside protesting’ weather.

We’ll see.

It would be my first protest, but I didn’t want to have frostbite!

[OhNo-Really]

30. Same dilemma here. I can't drive at night

Kids working. Bad time for a protest the week of Winter Solstice imaho (a for ages)

Hope there are protests & marches all day every Saturday soon

[BigmanPigman]

41. The last No Body Is Above the Law protest

was Nov., 8, 2018 to protect the Mueller Report and was planned for 5:30 PM too. It is very inconvenient. Others at yesterday's rally were grateful it was on Sunday here, even though many people were not aware that is was not going to be Tues PM like the majority of rallies across the US.

[Fritz Walter]

25. At the risk of gloating, the weather in NE FL is supposed to be gorgeous tomorrow

Highs in the 70s. No rain forecast.

I might wear this t-shirt there.

[handmade34]

31. Yah for the T-shirt...

[2naSalit]

34. Interesting mix on that shirt

But I would wear it since i have worked for both USDAFS and NPS. Smokey Bear is a USDAFS campaign rather than the National Park Service. Both have been seriously defunded for over a decade now.

[cwydro]

40. Smokey is Forest Service fella.

Not Park Service.

But I get the point.

[CatMor]

32. Thank you for your activism....

It is because of people like you changes can be made for the better. I can no longer physically participate but I sure wish I could.

[BigmanPigman]

39. My health has finally begun to

limit my activist activities...it was just a matter of time. I have not been to more than three protests this year due to it but when I heard about thos one I said, "Tough, I am going whether I feel sick or no!". I have waited 4 years for this and was NOT going to let my health stop me, damn it!!!

Calling the GOP senators and sending postcards via Indivisible is something I can do from home and can still do regardless of my health situation. I will be calling the senators big time. I pretend I am a constituent using addresses from Zillow (in case they want verification). I have done it literally hundreds of times and it works.

[Triloon]

33. theres only 5 ppl signed up for the one nearest me

Out in the sticks ya know...I'll make it 6. Should be fun.

[2naSalit]

35. I have no idea how many will show for this in my town

but last time I was out with them I lived in a different county. Ours is tomorrow @ 5:30pm so I have my ski bibs, warm boots & mittens ready, making a lit sign with microlights inside and glow ring necklaces! I used to live in serious cold country, what we have in my new location is nothing compared to that. Hell, I don't even have to get the heavy duty stuff out. I'm up for this!

[Rhiannon12866]

36. Almost 300 have signed up already in my small town! Thanks!

[Kind of Blue]

42. Thanks, BigmanPigman! Got 4 people going with me up here in North County tomorrow night.

Those 4 are contacting their friends right now who they think can make it.

[BigmanPigman]

43. Cool!

I never take pictures at the rallies but usually find one posted. I just saw one a few hours ago in a newspaper article on line. My sister and my neighbor are in one of them too. Here is my sign (can't see me...good) the one with balloons and TRAITOR on it. On the other side of the sign I have the same picture but with Hitler hair and a clown nose. Both sides have a very long red tie hanging from it. I even put a piece of tape on it like he did during his first year in office to hold it in place...I guess his stapler didn't work.

[Kind of Blue]

45. "(can't see me...good)..." LOL! That's always my fear! Fuck it, this is too important.

You're killing me with the Hitler hair and balloon nose.

Just saw your post, clicked the links, stunned to see a rally here and got on the horn. I've got some some cardboard and hope to make at least one sign.

I can't tell you how much I appreciate that you posted. Fired Up and Ready to God!

On Edit: Whoops! I meant Fired Up and Ready to Go!

[BigmanPigman]

46. The first rally I attended was right after he won/lost (popular vote)

in Nov. 2016. My very first sign had him as the Grinch with a Hitler mustache and swastikas in his eyes and some people thought it was distasteful. That was then, this is NOW and I am not the only one making Hitler comparisons 3 years later. Distasteful my ass! I was spot on and my eyes were wide open.

Are you going to one in Escondido or Encinitas?

[Kind of Blue]

47. Going to the one in Escondido. Only 77 people so far, so I'm glad to push that

number closer to 100.

Seriously, it's mind blowing that any one could think your sign was distasteful in any period of time.

It's so awfully sad and frustrating that time is the impediment for changing minds.

[Demovictory9]

44. ...

[flibbitygiblets]

48. Got my sign and ready to go in Portland OR!
