I just finished putting the finishing touches on my sign. This protest is going to be enormous from what I have learned from 8 yeas of protesting regularly.

Of course the MSM (except Rachel on MSNBC) will ignore it completely. So far there are OVER 1,000 protests but that link stops when it hits 1,000. That was a week ago. With 3 weeks left until the NO KINGS PROTESTS I expect the number of protests to be 2,000 and easily larger than the original Women's March in 2017, the largest WORLD wide protest in history to date.

The Hands Off Protest has 1,200 protests and 5.2 million people attended.

My sign is double sided and has an 1"wide dowel as a handle so it can maneuver the heavy breezes in my area. My signs act as a sail on a boat. This is an effort for me but well worth it. The fucking moron has given me so much anxiety that I've dropped down to 81 pounds. I've gained 2 back but it is still rough on my frail frame to carry this enormous, heavy sign while walking 2 hours. I'll probably be too pooped out to go 2 full hours. Oh well, it lifts my spirits to know I'm doing something/anything.
