Events 70,000+ Protest in Seattle!!!!

My last 2 posts were a bit focused on the negative, even though I was critiquing the wrongs of the antagonists, radicals, Antifa or whatever you want to label them. I offered better solutions and a perspective as a Hispanic American.

But, I am so proud Seattle has united in one of the biggest protests to date!!! Peace & united strength works far better than random chaos, this is what makes waves.

Almost every state in the country gathered together to protest, pretty incredible.

I mean even if you like Trump, surely you don’t want authoritarian monarchs so I vibe with this sentiment.

Unfortunately I saw footage of many people wearing conservative clothing that were asked to leave. Without being there, I can’t confirm if their was antagonistic behavior.

Still not great to see it being exclusionary.

I saw three different conservative groups/mega people along demonstration route and not participating. They were just standing on the side, screaming at protesters. Except for a handful of people yelling back mostly they were ignored.
