This CAN’T be a grassroots effort!
Look at all the professionally printed signs!
Look at all the people wearing T shirts with the same logo!
I’ll even lay money that some folks were driven there by someone else!
LOL
This was not a spontaneous reaction. They had a few days to plan. “Grassroots” has nothing to do with it. It doesn’t mean the same thing as “spontaneous.”
P.S.
What this indicates to me is the grassroots folks are getting better organized and getting away from that carnival atmosphere they were emulating until very recently.
