    It takes a bit of getting out of your comfort zone for those who have never been to a demonstration, but do it.
    No need to be depressed just reading the news ,including social media, or the hard right talking points that increasingly dominates this forum. You will feel more empowered and energized. It will encourage the often times gutless elected officials, judges and the mainstream media to resist Trump's continual testing of any limits on his power.

    Houston June 14th
    10:00 AM to around 12:00
    City Hall

    I suggest go early as cheap parking will be scarce

    Google No King's Rally for your city.

    Stay safe at the protests, fellow clutch fan friends.
    Vote Harris County judges and their low bonds out. No reason for offenders to be out of jail on multiple felony bonds.

    The chances of being arrested at the demonstration are very close to zero unless that is your goal. Don't be afraid.

    Astrodome knows little about these things so ignore.

    The “stay safe” comment there is a little cute way to insinuate that all protests like this are crazy Rodney King style riots. That way he can seed a little bit of fear that could keep people from going out.

    The only reason these rallies would get out of hand is if the fascist in the governors mansion Gregg Abbott and his lord and savior Donald Trump try to escalate in order to propagate.

    The organizers for this one though are pros and will be instructing folks on how to peacefully protest in an effective way as long as people show up. I’ll be at the Dallas event myself.

    What's funny is that protests often become irrelevant and forgettable if they remain peaceful. :confused:

    Do you think the protests that got out of hand in 2020 and this year were due to the governors/president or the rioters?

    I do not think "stay safe" is bad advice

    Anytime you have many people gather and the environment is even partially charged you can end up with a situation that becomes unsafe

    You could also suffer heatstroke .

    Go , drink water , exercise your first amendment rights.

    Well you could've hit paste and then deleted names

    I might be able to figure it out if I pay attention to the order .

    Edit. This should've been my response to your other post.

    How do y'all even keep up with all the mentions !?

    Speaking of multiple felony bonds, that orange-faced guy got given the golden key to freedom simply because he was running for President. We now have the guy who was on multiple felony bonds as PPP resident, and he is now pardoning the criminals who support him.

    I am sure these gentlemen ask for the low bonds and I don't blame them. But the judges need to be admonished when defendants are given PR bonds then go out and commit more felonies. Jugging is a violent crime and many of these folks use these crimes as their primary income. From what I saw with the current president, he followed the conditions of his bonds and appeared in court when summoned. I don't think the comparison has merit when the president was not appearing in a Harris County courtroom where these bonds are prevalent.
