I am 72 today and will be making signs for a protest tomorrow...

Our little town here in SW PA is having a hopefully peaceful protest tomorrow. I have marched in Pittsburgh and DC on several occasions and am heartbroken that I have to do this again. A little nervous about this one because of the camo wearing, gun toting, trump lovers around here. Good thoughts for peace tomorrow.

I just watched that....they pushed him to the ground and his head was bleeding a lot. They just walked on by. Serve and protect, right? SMH.

Stay safe. You are doing a very brave and good thing.

I hear you about those scary looking individuals. Hopefully they’ll stay home this time.
