[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The intentions behind these protests are good. It would be effective in normal times - when lawmakers needed to care about the opinions of their constituents. Senators and representatives from around the country should see the mass amounts of people showing up at their capitol buildings and elsewhere around their states and take that as a signal to start listening. But that’s simply not gonna happen. Spending a Saturday afternoon holding clever signs will not cut it. The protests need to be unrelenting and localized. People need to go to DC. Surround the buildings these people are actually in. 24/7. In MASS numbers. From now until this ends. It needs to be something they can’t ignore. They need to be forced out of their holes.

Is this practical? Of course not. We have jobs and families and other obligations. But still, this is the only way to be effective…which is why nothing is going to change. [/quote]

Again, I keep asking.  What is your list of demands? You have less than Occupy Wall St in terms of any specific grievances or actions that you want happen. And it's not about "removal" or just anti-orange-man.  This doesn't cut it because there is nothing behind this.  Maybe try to think about protests and movements to change things that were effective?  [/quote]

APril 5 was very clear. "Hands off!': social security, medicare/aid, immigrants, healthcare, federal workers and agencies.
Stop the endless illegal actions that have occurred since January.

[b]In other words, Congress and SCOTUS do your jobs and be the checks and balances.[/b]

There have been no changes to Social Security payments so far. What are you demanding this administration to do with Social Security.[/quote]
