Octogenarian marches in Philadelphia's 'No Kings' protest

Born in 1944 ... technically, not a “boomer” (as though generational labels actually mean anything ..)

In any case, what the heck does he think he is? A “millennial”? A “zoomer”?

[Publius]

Those born before the Boomers were known as the Silent Generation. Biden was one of them.

You can get as old as dirt, yet accrue no wisdom.

[tumblindice]

This.
When they steal an election, they’re all, “We stole it fair & square! Federal preemption. Protest is insurrection.”
When they lose they’re all, “States’ rights! Resist! Our judge said ‘No!’
The left is the Willie Wanker Blueberry Girl, stamping her little foot.

[null and void]

I am 70 and i cannot identify anything changed by protest.

[Eli Kopter]

Wow, that’s news, ain’t it? MSNBC knows how to ‘dig em’ out.

[Eli Kopter]

Trump is almost as old as he is and he is marching in the Parade....just sayin’.

[crusty old prospector]

I am looking at the website of the local TV stations in our small city. Most of the protesters look like washed up dopers from Woodstock.

[TheDon]

LOL!

[JennysCool]

What is with these old boomers, who hate Trump? Are they trying to relive the 60's?

Exactly. Having fully indoctrinated their kids and grandkids, they're enjoying reliving their youth.

[nopardons]

At 81, he is NOT a “BOOMER”; he is a WAR BABY, who is an IDIOT and probably always was one.

[Eli Kopter]

That is fine as long as he doesn’t break the law.

[dowcaet]

The Tea Party rallies in 2010 drew much larger numbers, and might I add the left’s own Occupy Wall Street protests a year later were bigger than today’s “No King” rallies.

[Phoenix8]

So true.

And if you are like me you are used to 80 years old men being of the Great Generation..ww2 vets, depression survivors.

Now a days an 80 year old was possibly a smelly hippy with marijuana burn marks on his shirt and flowers in his hair.

[joshua c]

protesting a king is treason

the penalty for treason is death

any of that happening today?

[No name given]

Just like Xiden.

[No name given]

Well said.

[ohioman]

They have the right to protest as I have the right to wish them to rot in hell! No respect for these leftists who are trying to ruin this country.

[Jane Long]

No fool like an old fool.

[heavy metal]

fossil fools...
