Jefe... I appreciate your passion and courage. However, I was not referring to tanks, marching soldiers, or cordons of DC police. I was referring to the MAGAhead militia types who are likely to be in DC on Saturday, armed and ready for trouble. I live in North Carolina. In 1979 the Communist Workers Party activists in Durham decided to hold a Death to the Klan rally in Greensboro on a weekend when the Klan was planning to march. Five of the guys were shot dead by the Klan members. Messing with militia crazies is like kicking a rabid dog. Don't do it.

I am gay and I was in DC for World Pride this past weekend. It will be interesting to see which parade draws the bigger crowd, Pride or Trump's vulgar display. ........ Another consideration that I did not mention: it is better not to have any of us in DC next weekend if there would only be a minimal turnout compared to the previous Hands Off and No Kings rallies. Let's manifest RESISTENCE in our home towns. I totally support Indivisible's decision not to be in DC on Saturday.
