Women's March on Washington (1 Viewer)

Oh, and can't forget the cross-stitched sign that said, "I Made This Sign  I'm so Angry I Stitched This Just So That I Could Stab Something 350,000 Times"

Trump encourages women to speak up for themselves.  It is very nice to see the tremendous response.  Empowered!

Fake outrage?  The outrage seems pretty ####### real to me.  At least in my house my wife and daughter are still talking about the rally and how much they ####### hate Trump.  The outrage is plenty real. 

 
:lmao:  Just caught up on Patton Oswalt's reporting and commentary on yesterday's "Men's March". :lmao:  

"My cargo shorts are caught on a Kind Muesli Bar display at the Anaheim MensMarch.  Send help."

Patton: "List your favorite Tom Clancy novels to summon 'MILIUS STRENGTH"

"I have strapped 12 PBRs to my chest and am going to handcuff myself to the toilet at my wife's small business."

Patton: "THIS IS MY FIGHT SONG"

"My son and I are standing by the checkout line at Safeway saying 'ewww' every time someone buys tampons"

Patton: "SUNRISE, SUNSET..."

 
Amazing you can get that many people in one area and no arrests.

Women's March on Washington yields zero arrests: report
BY BROOKE SEIPEL - 01/22/17 10:15 AM EST


No arrests were made during the Women's March on Washington Saturday, according to a top official in the capital.

The peaceful protest, which had an estimated 500,000 in attendance, was so much larger than its expected size that the march route had to be altered and couldn't pass the White House as planned.

D.C. Homeland Security Director Christopher Geldart told NBC news that despite the massive crowds, no arrests were made. On Friday after the inauguration, protests led to the arrests of more than 200 people and the use of pepper spray and stun grenades by police.

People attended sister marches nationally and globally, including in Antarctica. Current estimates place the national turnout at 3 million.

so basically fascists get together dressed as ######s yelling F-bombs and the country allows them to peacefully be idiots.  But if Trump supporters get together, the city breaks out in a riot with looting, fires, assaults, etc.  And people are still wondering how they lost?  Normal people don't think like anarchists.

The American Left talks about deploring violence but they are mostly the ones to engage in this behavior when things don't go their way.

There was NO violence though. Nobody was arrested.

If there had been ANY violence, any at all, it would have been focused on by some people around here (including, I believe, yourself) as the ONLY Issue worth talking about, and you would have linked all protests to it, just as you did in Ferguson, and Baltimore, etc.

There was no violence because Trump Supporters aren't anarchists.  A trump gathering?  (Inauguration, Milo Speech, Deplora Ball, etc) always brings out violence as the left talks a great game of love trumps hate, but they are the first to start fights and burn stuff up.

It is infuriating but when you realize they may not be capable of the level of reasoning to understand that, it gets easier.

Let them vent their frustrations, they are a product of Obama. We have a chance to start molding a new generation.

On the day Barack Obama was elected President of the United States, much of the nation – particularly those who supported and voted for him – celebrated the election of the first African American to the country’s highest office. For those who voted for his opponent, John McCain, there was naturally the usual bitterness and disappointment.
 
Among a certain subset of those Americans, however – especially those who opposed Obama precisely because he sought to become the nation’s first black president – it went well beyond the usual despair. For them, November 5, 2008, was the end of the world. Or at least, America as they knew it.
 
So maybe it wasn’t really a surprise that they responded that day with the special venom and violence peculiar to the American Right.
 
Like the noose strung in protest from a tree limb in Texas. Students at Baylor University in Waco discovered the noose hanging from a campus tree the evening of Election Day, near a site where angry Republican students had gathered a bunch of Obama yard signs and burned them in a big bonfire. That same evening, a riot nearly broke out when Obama supporters, chanting the new president’s name, were confronted by white students outside a residence hall who told them: “Any who walks by Penland (Hall), we're going to kick their ###, we're going to jump him." The Obama supporters stopped and responded, "Excuse me?" Somehow they managed to keep the confrontation confined to a mere shouting match until police arrived and broke things up.
 
Then there were the students on the North Carolina State University campus in Raleigh, who spent Election Night spray-painting such fun-loving messages about Obama as “Let's shoot that in the head” and “Hang Obama by a noose.” The N.C. State administration was so upset by this behavior that it protected the students’ identities and refused to take any legal action against them or discipline them at all.
 
But those were just warm-ups from the student cheering section. The real thugs, exemplars of the dark side of the American psyche, were shortly making their mark.
 
That night, four young white men from Staten Island “decided to go after black people” in retaliation for Obama’s election. They first drove to the mostly black Park Hill neighborhood and assaulted a Liberian immigrant, beating him with a metal pipe and a police baton, in addition to the usual blows from fists and feet. Then they drove to Port Richmond, where they assaulted another black man and verbally threatened a Latino man and a group of black people. They finished up the night by attempting to drive next to a man walking home from his job as a Rite Aid manager – he was actually white, but this crew of geniuses managed to misidentify him as a black man – and club him with the police baton. Instead, they simply hit him with their car, throwing him off the windshield and into a coma for over a month.
 
All four of these men wound up convicted of hate crimes and would spend the duration of Obama’s first term in prison.
 
In Midland, Michigan, the day after the election, a discarded Ron Paul activist named Randy Gray (he had been peremptorily dismissed from the Paul campaign when his white-supremacist activism was revealed) stalked the sidewalk in the middle of a heavily trafficked intersection in town, dressed in full Ku Klux Klan regalia, waving an American flag. He also was toting a handgun. Police approached and talked to him, but let him continue his display after he told them it had nothing to do with Obama winning the presidency.
 
A busful of schoolkids in Rexburg, Idaho, started chanting “Assassinate Obama” just to tease the tiny minority of their fellow schoolkids who were Obama supporters. In Rexburg – where the population is over 90 percent Mormon – that’s about three kids in the entire school. District officials didn’t discipline the children who had led the chants, but it did send out a letter to their parents reminding them that students are to be told such behavior is unacceptable.
 
Then there were the arsons.
 
On election night, a black family in South Ogden, Utah, came home from volunteering at their local polling station to discover that their American flag had been torched.
 
The morning after the election, in Hardwick Township, New Jersey, a black man taking his eight-year-old daughter to school emerged from his front door to discover someone had burned a six-foot-tall cross on his lawn – right next to the man’s banner declaring Obama president. It had been torched too.
 
Another cross was burned on the lawn of the only black man in tiny Apolacon Township, Pennsylvania, the night after the election. A black church in Springfield, Massachusetts, was also burned to the ground the night of the election; eventually, three white men were arrested and charged with setting the fire as a hate crime.
 
And if the election itself wasn’t enough to bring the haters out of the woodwork, there was always Obama’s inauguration on January 21, 2009.
 
Two days before the big event, arsonists in Forsyth County, Georgia, set fire to the home of a woman who was known as a public supporter of Obama. Someone painted a racial slur on her fence, along with the warning, “Your black boy will die.”
 
On inauguration day, someone taped newspaper articles featuring Obama onto the apartment door of a woman in Jersey City, New Jersey, and set fire to it. Fortunately, the woman had stayed home to watch the inauguration on TV and smelled the burning, and she was able to extinguish the fire before it spread. If only she could have done the same for the hate that sparked the act.
 
The day after, a large 22-year-old skinhead named Keith Luke decided it was time to fight the “extinction” of the white race, so he bashed down the door of a Latino woman and her sister and shot them both; one died. Police cornered and arrested Luke before he could pull off the next planned stage of his shooting rampage, which was to have taken place at a local Jewish synagogue towards which he was driving when arrested. According to the DA, Luke intended to “kill as many Jews, blacks, and Hispanics as humanly possible ... before killing himself.” When he appeared in court a month later, Luke had carved a swastika into his forehead with a razor blade.
 
But the pain and violence inflicted by these haters was just beginning.
 
In all, the Southern Poverty Law Center counted more than 200 “hate-related” incidents around the election and inauguration of Barack Obama as the nation’s first African-American president.

If you are the template, we are in serious trouble.

Eh, that's the fast lane to going nowhere fast socially. There's no reason to complain about women being... women.

Come on now, Madonna was there. Anyone harboring feelings over this need to let it go. If it happens again without Trump doing something stupid then I will be pissed.
