“This is not a request. This is a rupture. This is a protest and a promise,” Free America says on its website.

Event organizers are also encouraging students to leave their classrooms to join marchers objecting to the Trump administration’s first year in office, which has included federal law enforcement being deployed in U.S. cities and unprovoked aggression toward longstanding allies.

Because blocking NYC evening rush hour will sure bring people going home from work over to their side.

Or punish them for being Trump supporters?

Free America has a medical problem.

Fire them all. They can reapply for the job, but management now has an easy way of choosing not to rehire the people they already don’t like.

Correct. Don’t let the door hit your backside on the way out. Take your personal belongings with you too.

There is going to be a fight. Let’s get it started and over with.

The more I read these headlines the more convinced I am. We need to get used to the idea of the fight and mentally prepare. Each of us has a role in the fight and now is the time to think about what that role is. When it happens, it is too late.

“..denial can be seductive, but it has an insidious
side effect. For all the peace of mind deniers think
they get by saying it isn’t so, the fall they take when
faced with new violence is all the more unsettling.
Denial is a save-now-pay-later scheme, a contract
written entirely in small print, for in the long run,
the denying person knows the truth on some level.”
And so the warrior must strive to confront denial in all
aspects of his life, and prepare himself for the day when
evil comes

You can’t walk off of a job when you don’t have a job to begin with.

You losers are a ‘ruptured’ hernia in America’s belly!

So, 40,000 RSVP’d for the event? That means maybe 10 will walk out of work today?

*SNORT*
