This is what democracy looks like! Marching in DC
National Education Association ^ | Jan 23, 2017 | National Education Association

Thousands upon thousands took to the streets in Washington, DC, millions across the nation and the world. We are diverse, we are united and we have many, many creative signs. :)

If we were a true democracy: abortion, pot and queer marriage would be illegal, there’d be no gun restrictions, and there’d be few illegal immigrants. There’d probably still be slavery and no women’s vote, as well.

If we were a true democracy, we’d be sick to death of the never-ending ballot campaign ads and voting on everything under the sun, most of which we’d know little about and most wouldn’t learn about (so it’d be ignorant highly ignorant voting). Ugh.

The term hysteria comes from the Greek word hysterika, meaning Uterus. In ancient Greece it was believed that a wandering and discontented Uterus was blamed for that dreaded female ailment of excessive emotion, hysteria.

After hearing and seeing video from this “women’s” March I think Trumps comments from 10 years ago were pretty tame!

Indeed...I guess he’s too young to wear a pink pu$$y cap. Don’t worry, kid, you’ll get there.

EVs are good, but I prefer the devastating county map.

Does the protester realize how totally stupid he looks?

The Dept of Education is one of the first agencies that should be summarily eliminated and the responsibilities returned to the several sovereign states.

If you didn’t favor vouchers before, please reconsider.

So insincere.

The man never liked McCarthy. Putin is more of a thug than a communist. (The man would like Putin if he really was a communist.) Putin does not control Trump.

The guy probably knows it’s all crap, but he thinks it’s oh so cute and clever.

One thing that causes revulsion is the way so many of these parents use their kids. A normal person proceeds as an adult and leaves their children to be children - not props in a propaganda program.

And the ironic thing is that the only real complaint I saw spelled out was 1,002 days w/o drinking water in Flint MI - all under Obama’s and Dems’ watch...Priceless!

As these events show, our Founding Fathers were inspired by God and very wise.

This IS what democracy looks like. Mob rule. The people that get the most press and the biggest images. I was telling my kids this. YES - all of these marches DO look like a big deal. All the big liberal cities, all the activists, the well-organized (they are paid protesters that run these things).

But they are NOT a big deal. What is a big deal is the millions and millions of people across this ENTIRE country that are sick and tired of the way things are being run. The unnoticed, the ones not listened to, the ones too busy working and keeping their heads down.

Until now.
