March for Our Lives Updates: Chants of ‘Enough Is Enough’ at Huge Rallies on Guns
NY Times ^ | March 24, 2018 | NYT

Hundreds of thousands of protesters, outraged by a recent massacre at a South Florida school and energized by the students who survived, thronged in streets across the globe in protests on Saturday, demanding action against gun violence in their most ambitious show of strength yet.

In New York, marchers bundled in bright orange — the official color of a gun control advocacy group — charged toward Central Park. In Washington, protesters held signs with the messages “Arms Are for Hugging” and “Never Again.” And in Parkland, Fla., less than a mile from where the shooting took place, one protester’s eyes brimmed with tears, surrounded by the echoing chant, “Enough is enough!”

Eliminate gun violence, they say. Good. Get rid of the violent idiots. I never heard of a gun get up and start shooting by itself.

Interesting that they actually mention that there were counterprotests.

Probably there are many anti-American activists among the organizers of these marches.

Did they break out into a rousing chorus of “Tomorrow Belongs to Me”?

They have every right to disarm themselves.

They have no right to disarm others.

In Washington, protesters held signs with the messages “Arms Are for Hugging”...

That treads pretty close to a "No Nukes" era protest banner. Lame-O.

Hundreds of thousands?? What a joke. If they really had mass support they would be talking about tens of millions.... this is just a splinter of the loony left, like the annoying twit Hogg-boy, the MSM’s favorite fake “victim”....

“It is hard to believe that there are so many uninformed in this country.”

Actually, considering that all the MSM is doing is spread lies and propaganda, it is not surprising.
