If you feel terrorised by peaceful protesters, that's a you issue. Therapy is available.

I'd also like to know when I get paid for my protesting.

What we need to do is boycott all corporate owned media so their mergers become irrelevant. We need to communicate with each other outside their systems.

This is the main point. If they keep us fighting amongst ourselves we will not unite against the uber rich who are the real problem in our lives.

Support the 2nd Amendment by regulating militias. The Constitution leaves that power to the states. Once we regulate the militias, anybody with a gun who is not a registered member of a regulated militia can be disarmed. Why are no states doing this? @giffords.org @gavinnewsom.bsky.social

NexStar also operates all of the stations owned by affiliates Mission Broadcasting and Vaughan Media, under local marketing agreements, so add those to the boycott list.

Let them know you will not consume any NexStar media until Kimmel is back on the air. NexStar Media Group owns 201 Stations and 138 Local Websites, so check your local stations to know what to boycott. They are trying to acquire Tegna, which owns 64 stations, so boycott those as well.

#Edinburgh At the #NoKings protest Saturday we agreed to meet every Tuesday from noon to 1pm at the US Consulate to continue our protest action. It takes about 3.5% of a population maintaining sustained action to effectuate change. Be part of the 3.5% for #TacoTuesday

My wife is amazing. She just made this and posted it on Facebook. We met in college, and in two weeks will celebrate being married 39 years. I’m so lucky to be her life partner! ❤️
