Thank you to every person who had choices about where to protest today, and still chose to add their number to a smaller protest.

Sure, it's absolutely impressive to see Philly, Boston, Chicago, L.A. But what's really impressive to me are the smaller towns with enthusiastic participants. It's different when you don't have a big crowd where you can blend in. Granted, I would like to experience one of those huge crowds to see what it's like, but I will probably always prioritize the smaller communities deep in red territory. They might need me more.

At any rate, I am happy for every person who is a part of this in any way whatsoever.

And thank you, Minneapolis/St. Paul for bearing more than your share, and leading the way. We salute you!

I can't imagine attending a large protest like the ones in Philly, NYC, etc. I don't like dealing with crowds, nor the logistics of traveling to + from the rally.

I choose to protest locally where my presence can (IMO) make a bigger impact. It takes a little bit of courage, since I am in a confirmed conservative area. The sense of camaraderie among the protesters is always strong and contains a special kind of joy. I noticed today that there were no hecklers. A first!

@Sharonbw fantastic! We couldn't hear anything any detractors were saying so we just waved. I didn't realize how loud everything was until I listened to my own video.
