According to reports, 25% of the crowd or so were democrats and they are total slobs. They have seen the light, but their integration into to proper society and the conduct required will take some time to accomplish.
I have been to a number of large political demonstrations, and I can say with no hesitation that this is unusual.
I met up with the DC Chapter of FR maybe a dozen to two dozen times, most for Walter Reed Freeps, but some big ones like the Gathering of Eagles I and II, and the March on Washington. Those are largely conservative gatherings with a minority of Leftists.
I have also been to quite a few demonstrations where conservatives were the considerable minority, and the filthy pigs of Leftists left everything from baby diapers to partially empty lunch boxes strewn everywhere. We were at that big rotary going into Arlington National Cemetery where the bridge comes over near the Lincoln Memorial, and the Leftists all came across the bridge towards Arlington en mass. When the demonstration was over, the amount of trash and refuse was astonishing as we looked back over the bridge. Made me think of what a field of crops would look like after locusts came through.
But uniformly, in both cases from the conservative side, the conservatives not only cleaned up after themselves on an individual basis (people stacked their discarded signs neatly near trash bins and such) we also made an effort to tidy up large areas. At one, we were in disparate conservative groups where one group unknown to others began to clear a large area, doing a coordinated walk-down and policing the area, and other groups came over and stepped in without even being asked. I think that was at the Gathering of Eagles, and there were a lot of ex-military there so I guess I shouldn’t have been surprised.
This is disheartening to me. Honestly, it was an aspect of these political things that made me proud and made an easy object lesson between Leftists and Conservatives.
It is a bit disappointing if true.
