I will always remember that time I was in DC and we saw a bunch of buses pull up and offload their human cargo. Everyone had on red protest shirts - forget the cause just now, but was lefty - and fully half of them broke away (some running) and went on sightseeing tours. Saw some here and there through the day as we visited different museums and monuments.

LOL, they caught the free bus, free lunch, free T-shirt and got a stipend to have a lovely day roaming in DC.

This nonsense will keep the kids busy and out of trouble and it will soon be yesterday’s news.

Much ado about nothing. Who even remembers the Milllion Man March ?

So kids and teachers can get expense-paid vacations to DC to attack our fundamental rights?

“Another thought...how much are they giving to the families with dead kids?”

As well as those who were wounded but need medical attention. (Think of the kid who was shot five times saving his friends.) There will be continuing medical expenses.

And, it MIGHT be that insurance will not cover injuries resulting from “terrorism”.

In any event, the costs will mount up.

So where are the celebs contributing?

Hey, if you are going to have a weeks long histrionic media orgy of sanctimonious left wing bullshit, you’re going to have to come up with some real money.

BS doesn’t come cheap.

I wonder if they are taking guns away from their body guards.

A million dollars to pay all the expendable people crumbs to march.

So, I assume that when these brain-dead celebrities show up for these marches, they will not allow any armed security near them? Because guns are evil and such.

Blacks are 12 percent of the U.S. population, 40 percent of the abortions each year.

All these sanctmonious gun-grabbers “for the children” don’t really give a d@mn about children, especially about the millions of black babies murdered in the womb.

I personally won’t be watching, but I’m sure others will be watching to see if the body guards show up or not.

Look what is on the spoons they're being spoon fed with.
It isn't chocolate pudding.

This march will be ripe for a false flag event.

The $500,000 will buy a lot of guns for school security.
Way to go Oprah Winfrey, Steven Spielberg, Jeffrey and Marilyn Katzenberg, George and Amal Clooney.

Who knew they wanted to make schools safe?
