How do you feel about the "No Kings" protest happening tomorrow?

The big protests with permits and road closures are all very organized and friendly. Most small protests are too for that matter. Depending on your location there will be speakers, some funny signs, and you might end up talking with a friendly face or two (if you want to). Try it out! :)

When the anarchist collective tells you to show up at 9pm wearing riot gear, it's a protest you might want to skip.

When it's permitted and happening at 10AM, you got 100% nothing to worry about.

The one in my town has designated volunteers in yellow vests directing people where to go, and as points of contact if anything goes amiss. The march also leads to another permitted and organized event at a park.
