    BS I was in a smaller city and was so many people that few blocks of street were blocked.

    And this was during the time trump deployed troops in LA, and assassination of politicians on the same day.

      which amounted to nothing but being used as the conflict against trumps parade for engagement. it was dropped out of the news cycle two days later. No leader, no goals, no demand, no threat, no leverage, no outcome.

      it was the epitome of virtue signaling, and feel goods. but accomplished nothing, and i worry it accomplished worse then nothing because it placated a bunch of people who thought they made a difference. i was there and i participated in the hope i would be proven wrong about my doubts only to have them proven.
