Great post! My daughter's were in SF yesterday, on Market street, for an unrelated screening event. The comment was made that the protesters left their mess behind there too. 2 lady friends of mine also had many pals who protested wherever. The only thing I have heard that they are protesting is Trumps grabbing pu$$y comment from eons ago. Of course Bill and the beast get a pass. I think this protesting is really anti-God, all these protesters really don't give a fuk about what the say they do. pack it in, pack it out bitches

They left those for the homeless to use as mattresses.
A few layers of decent cardboard serve well to keep the cold away from
the body.

Did you see some of the costumes that were worn? Vaginas!!!! Is that how they feel they relate to the world? Sad, just sad.
And, Trump said he COULD grab a woman, not that he had.......... by contrast, we have multiple lawsuits brought against hiLIARy's husband for actual assault, and they paid up on them. But yet, some of those signs were for her.....
If these marches were legal, then someone had to sign for the permits, right? Maybe they should also get the bill or a fine for the clean up left by their marchers?

NPS: Cleanup 'going well' after inauguration, Women's March.

"The National Park Service has been working to get the area back to its original condition, removing trash, taking down the fencing and pulling up the decking for the recent activities.
“We’ve had our maintenance team out there since last night when they already did a pass,” National Park Service spokeswoman Emily Linroth said Saturday. “Today, they are really going through with a fine tooth comb and picking up what’s left. They do this every July Fourth, so they are pros at it.”
This time around, officials say, visitors were tidier than prior years. Linroth says so far, the cleanup is going well.
“Fortunately, a lot of people, even though, the trash cans were full, have stacked the trash neatly as close to the trash cans as they could get them, so that is making our job easier,” Linroth said."

Do you really believe that, how easily you succumb to lies.

The march, as I previous stated was about overcoming fear. It wasn't just feminist fear. It was all the fears, of all the people , It's purpose was to say... we don't have to live with our fear any longer. No matter what your fear is.

You don't get it. What this march has done was to let the genie out of the bottle. They are not going to forget tomorrow, or change their mind tomorrow. they are going to do something about it.

You can forget about putting the toothpaste back in the tube.. I recommend you brush your teeth with it.. before you go down the tube.

You can't stop it.

I could care less if you agree, you don't need to be convinced, anymore
You don't matter.

You think those people you convinced, you made care, really care?
They don't.
Those people marching had strength in unity. right in unity. they don't need to convince anybody, no0body needed to convince them. They didn't care whatt Madonna, said, or Rosie O Donnell says, they know what their heart says. it's a done deal. That which you tried to create about Obama, didn't need to be created against Trump. The patriotism and Americanism you sought from the rest of us, we now have. . Get on board on get run over, that's your choice.[/SIZE

Nobody in that crowd, reinterates what Madonna said, i have not heard a single person say she was Right in what she said. Agreeing she wasn't wrong, doesn't she was right. She had no chance to insight others, it wasn't needed.. It was not about that.

Just a question from an Auzzie. We have work for the dole here or as I guess you guys would put it, "Work for your welfare."

People here who are capable of work and are on benefits have to do volunteer work at least 15 hours a week in a government recognised organisation to keep their benefits. Is this implemented in the States or Canada? They could help in the clean up.

Judgment Day will be interesting - and all paths lead there.

It was a huge success for a lot of the protesters, they picked up a lot of dates and made friends with a lot of prospects across the LBGTQMH community.

    Quoting  :

I stand by it all.....

maisie's support of trump and the manner she is doing it , is going to go down the tubes.

My point is this, As those marcher blame Trump and want to get rid of trump. that's not the problem. They think it is, but it's not.
People can spout ideology, their ideology, that's find. I support the honesty in whatever that is.

As you continue to believe, it only about ideology, and are willing to succumb to lies to protect it. you're no better than Trump.

Instead of people like Madonna, to be used by you. You need to listen to Michael Moore. Quote Michael Moore and let's have a discussion.

If those marchers, deal with their local representation. Deal with Republicans who choose to make this not about ideology but Trump's righteousness. Those Republicans who aren't willing to defend their ideology, but bring others down. Then the problem will be solved

Other than your undying defense of Maisie, I don't have problem with you. but any Republican, Any Republican. that does not see the truth about what's happening. will not be re-elected. In 2010. All 10 senate seats, that are up for election are in Red States. Any Republican, who supports Trumps method, does not voice and opinions against Trump about something, about anything, will lose. the one thing about, the bible belt, it's really hard for midwestern people to be dishonest. that doesn't mean they can't be misguided, but when they figure it out , look out. Bible belt people are not ideologues.
So as goes Kansas, So will go the Red States. let's see what happens.

Lizst,

You need to see Michael Moore for what he is, instead of what he portrays.
His film making, is not what he is.

It's slanted, over the top, but that's not him, that's what he does. He understand two things. First his inability to slant his film making to make a significant difference. second his film making is as much about entertainment as it is ideology. His film making doesn't dictate the truth, It's just his way of getting it out there.

so you need to listen to him, see what it's really about. then make up your mind. Using his film making to paint your Liberal picture is the same biased that allows you to succumb to lies.

you can't help, but defend your ideology.

I'm not a participant, I'm an observer.

When i observe something against you....then you deem me to be participant.

You can only take it so far. until you make everybody a participant. A participant against what you say.

Again, I stand by what I said ... you don't matter.

Work for welfare has been tried in various jurisdictions.

The problem has always turned out to be that it cost more to run programs than what they were worth.

maisie,

You want me to try and be agreeable with you.

i have told what I think.

Tell me what you think.

What is the meaning of Obamacare? As it relates to government. the base sense of what is being decided.

What are the marchers trying to say?

What is Trump doing, when he says the "dishonest media"?

What is Trumps connection to Russia, and what is Russia connection to the election?

How was Trump's inauguration speech, unifying , other than to demand servitude to him. How has Trump given the power to the people, other than the power over them?

Does Trump's Tax return, matter. Does the emoluments clause matter?

Does being rich and/or beautiful give someone more rights?

Are you just like Trump, and any disagreement makes someone wrong?

Everybody I listen too, has said trump's election is legitimate. There are some out there there that say it isn't, but they don't matter.
But it seems everything Trump does is about defending his legitimacy, that almost everyone agrees too. why is that?

From a base subconscious level. Obama made a perception mistake, he also made a focus mistake. that may have resulted in the defeat of Hillary. As Hillary, only supported it.

Too much focus on race, too many black faces around the white house, too many black faces, in our face.

now remember, I'm an observer not a participant.

Subconsciously, for America, it was statement that white America could not accept. It wasn't racist , by the definition, of promoting one race over another, but it was a feeling of a lack of respect, for most Americans.

So now I am a participant. so as I look at Trump is see Rich and/or beautiful. I don't relate to that. I'm being dismissed. I don't like it.
When America figures it out, they won't like it either. not just black America, or brown America, or religious America, gender America.... but all of America.

In relation to the race thing and Obama, I dismissed it as affirmative action.

Because I personally dismissed, doesn't mean i didn't recognize that a lot of America is against affirmative action.

Years ago a guy I knew said "don't you dare wheel a cart back to the store from the parking lot, you are taking away somebody's job!" Well, I never saw a store employee complain about that.. Perhaps that was the mindset of the protesters. Lotsa OT for the park service/city workers, which is the point Maisie made, Trump has been creating new jobs/work since Nov 8

"The National Park Service noted that, overall, the crowds at both events (i.e., the inauguration and the Women's March) were "tidier" than those of previous yearsquot;

"The signs in the picture weren't just tossed willy-nilly onto the ground; they were deliberately abandoned at that location — outside one of the entrances to the Trump International Hotel in Washington — as part of the protest:
Thousands of signs were left in front of the Trump International Hotel near the White House as demonstrators walked.
Holly Willebrand took a photo of herself in front of the sea of hand-crafted messages.
“It a good sign of solidarity,” Willebrand said."

That guy can just kiss my butt.......... I often grab a cart from the corral to use for balance on the way into the store, and I'm sure many others do the same! Then I often offer that cart to someone passing my car as I've unloaded it, so I don't have to return it and hobble back to my car.
People who want to control our every move and try to pin a motive on it, really chap my buns!

That's a pity, could have a lot of streets cleaned up, local gardens, parks and playgrounds looking good. Graffiti cleaned up and lots of work done that normally no one does. Also here there's work in hospitals, Community halls etc. Also resets our body clocks if a bit nocturnal. Makes a big difference to a town.
