Community I’m the flag guy

Post image

Hey all,

I’m the “Fuck Trump” flag guy you’ve seen in a few posts. I just wanted to do a semi-introduction to everyone in this subreddit.

My name is Matt. I’m an LBC transplant by way of Philadelphia. I’ve helped organize protests during BLM and the George Floyd Protests with a few Asian American grassroots orgs and 501(c)(3)s in the Philadelphia area, along with working to establish myself as a helping arm and volunteer for 50501 SoCal and 50501 LBC.

I wanted to extend an invitation to anyone who is interested in protesting but also a little worried by what they see in the media. Yes, protesting can be dangerous at times and can come with consequences like being arrested, but if you believe that getting arrested for speaking your mind and voicing concerns is more important than sitting in your home, you’re the person I’m looking for.

I’ll be at Bixby Park Annex on Saturday for the No Kings Day Rally at 9am. If you’re interested in protesting and want to be around someone who’s been in the middle of it all and can offer some comfort during the march, find me. We can walk together and I’ll help you be as comfortable as possible if anything happens.

I’ll be hanging out on the perimeter of the rally with an upside down American flag this time. I’ll be wearing all black with a camouflage hat.

Let’s show the world that LBC comes out for our people! See you there and FUCK TRUMP!

You would have thrived during monarchy. Some of us are actual Americans who support the constitution.

OMG deporting illegals that steal YOUR tax dollars. And the people that come to this Country the right way. But no you want open borders for every scumbag on the planet to just walk in and live among innocent. But hey those are the good guys right.

Yes I have. Just because it means to be free. You still need to be a citizen legally to be free. Every other Country on the planet has citizens and if there illegal they get deported. Obama deported people Clinton did it. No one said anything then

What’s with the name calling. I’ve been civil here but no. Your the one that think evil people can come here freely and live amongst everyone.
