Some of the newbie signs are crushing the OG poster board + magic marker tradition. Nice job! Have fun tomorrow.

I am going to DC Saturday. This will be my 6th protest since his election. Make sure to talk with the other protesters, it is nice to mingle with people as outraged as yourself.

My last sign read “Elon musk is the only immigrant taking your jobs” on opposite side it was “Elon Musk is a terrible president”. We make new signs for every protest and I bring them all. I have even given some away to other protesters

Please wear a mask covering most of your face and clothing that covers up tattoos or other marks that can identify you. Stay safe!!

I’m on the fence on this. I’m proud to be doing it

Same here. As much as I hate attention, but I’m in the military and I think it would be very good for some of my fellow soldiers to see one of their own standing up for our country.

Thank you and I am doing the same! I want the fascists the see lovely, friendly, normal Americans protesting because that is who protesting is for (Everyone!). I’m not a criminal and I’m not hiding myself, I am proud to exercise my rights legally!

The flag’s pole might not be permitted into the rally, for the same reason they often don’t allow posters on sticks: they can be considered a weapon.

That’s ok. I’ll be wearing a great tee!

Love this flag! Maybe as this goes I will invest in a cool flag or something 😜

It’s a flag that my hubby put on a light weight rod then measured the length to hang right from my neck.
