In pictures: The nationwide ‘No Kings’ protests

[martin]

I'd say it because it's accurate. Where are you getting your figures from? For example, I used google maps on that St. Louis photo to estimate the area of the crowd. I measured it as approximately 1500 x 75 feet and used a conservative 6 square feet per person (nearly shoulder to shoulder at 2.5 feet x 2.5 feet) to get my estimate (18750). Thus, I said between 10 and 20,000. That's probably pretty close to accurate.

Uh huh. Try this one on for size:

‘No Kings’ Was Biggest Protest in U.S. History: Data Analyst

The “No Kings” protests in every state may have been the biggest day of demonstrations in American history, a data analyst has suggested. “Based on hundreds of crowd-sourced records of No Kings Day event turnout, and extrapolating for the cities where we don’t have data yet, it looks like...

He's not alone either. Saturday really rocked the MAGATs' world, and not in a good way (for them). They want so desperately to believe that those who oppose the #TangerineTyrant are a minority of flakes. We showed them the truth, and they are melting down about it.

Today, politicians of all flavors are looking at this "poll of the people" and beginning to rethink things. They are looking ahead at the 2026 mid-terms. Some of them are pretty uneasy today. Hence the frantic attempts by Reichwing media and forum MAGATs to convince themselves that Saturday was a blip. It wasn't.

Good. I like it when our elected reps are actually representing American voters.

Nothing in this is beautiful.

You might be right...it would be tough to be a democrat right now....really really tough... Honestly I don't know how they recover from all this...

No King...No Thing...

I'm just being honest...Things are just not going well for that party...And actually, that's their problem...They're trying too hard and it's not a good look at all...

It's so kind of you to look that up and confirm that there was a huge turnout. You contradicted many of the MAGATs here who, last week, claimed that "only a few old ppl" would show up. Thanks.

BTW, the same site was where we held our Occupy St. Louis marches back in 2011. We didn't have this many participants!

Heck even FOX snooz is saying it was over 5 million. IMO it was even more even in our really small village here we had over 200 people come out.

No Kings Day attendance: Over 5 million turned out across US, organizers say

Those millions included an estimated 200,000 people in Los Angeles, 100,000 in Philadelphia, 70,000 in Seattle and over 50,000 in New York.

For example...one of the protests her in town was Friday night...because of the conflict with the Pride Celebration.
There were many meetings to practice and coordinate efforts to deescalate disruption that were expected... Then Friday night comes...there's not only no one there to "watch" there was a complaint that only 2 police were on call... And a number of pictures of misspelled signs...lol
It was quiet on the neighborhood pages the next morning...I did see one person say next time we need to recruit....

Desperate Dingbat Debbie has been spazzing out over No Kings for a week now. It's worse now because her prediction of "just some old people" will show up turned out to be incredibly wrong. But then almost all of her predictions are that way. There's a reason why she's known as "Nostradumbass."

i diid help the effort....Someone proudly posted the sign that they carried...I gently pointed out that it's "Constitution", not Consitution"...

I'm happy the old people got to bond, though...JPP had, well almost had, a chance to air out...

I really do to become a mod...those two sets of pesky rules...

Beautiful, thanks.. That's quite a large polling sample, wouldn't you agree?

Bet that Uneasy Earl, Terrified Toxic, and Grasping-at-straws Gardner will totally ignore this even though it comes from their chosen "news."

She likes the attention you and others give her for her statements.

In many ways she's so lonely that even attention in the form of abuse is welcomed by her.

She's the female version of her #FatFascistFelon. Unhinged, unwell, unloved, unwelcome.

She's having a real time meltdown right here in this thread. Love it!

Now you're copying me. It's true things are not going well for Democrats; they're not going well for anyone, including Trump with his underwater approval ratings. Let's hope the massive turnout for "No Kings" signaled a coming change for the better.

It was a young crowd at "No Kings". Trump has a leash on the "geriatrics".

I was on a road trip this weekend, I saw the protests in several cities.

Small Southern towns, and big cities. They were out early and late.

Things are turning.

I apologize for copying you...I should have quoted those words... No King is not going to make any difference... People have to put aside their differences.. And all that hatred...and work together... That does work... But it's really a complex process... Whatever one should have done was to support the Army and Flag Day celebration... That would have been a huge step forward... And what have been so easy to do.... People have to care though... We won't give up...

The "spazzing out" is understandable. These people grew up believing in old fashion democratic America. Now they find themselves applauding a would be oligarch. It's gotta hurt.
