Thousands of protestors rally against Trump in San Luis Obispo

April 5, 2025

By KAREN VELIE

San Luis Obispo’s “Hands Off!” protest brought approximately 5,000 people to the courthouse to rally against Trump on Saturday afternoon.

The rally included speakers such as U.S. Congressman Salud Carbajal who addressed the crowd from the steps of the courthouse. Carbajal voiced concerns that the Trump movement wants to put power “in the hands of corrupt, few autocrats.”

The city closed off Monterey Street from Osos to Santa Rosa streets. Protestors gathered around the courthouse and lined Santa Rosa Street.

Organizers held more than 1,300 “Hands Off!” rallies across 50 states.

Darn these Americans who are exercising their 1st Amendment right to assemble peacefully. They should have spent the day at the golf course with the king.

Fact: Trump left Biden with a 1.4% inflation rate back in 2020. Biden left Trump in January with 5.7

How’s Trump’s stock market Doing Boomers? Russia and Israel s genocidal war done day one; Nope. Ex Felon ignoring the constitution, making class warfare; and folks are mad at peaceful protests. Where are the Epstein Files? NetttingYahoo gave trump a gold pager; pretty fking Gross; Satanic Pedo stuff. Putin gave him a painting; Russia isn’t facing tariffs nor is N Korea. Now deleting history like it’s 451 Novel. Musk; you mean, the guy who’s dad impregnated his daughter and the guy who knew Epstein and dated Amber Hurd and lies about video games and building his businesses? Ceos working for the Gov? Lols.

At least it isn’t a Trump Train. Or Jan 6 Coup terrorist attack cop beating chit show. Destroy Dick Nixon’s Epa, lol. Wowzer. Luckily I hate rich people, pedophiles and gambling; ie, Stocks. Ketamine much?

In this forum I have posted comments about the January 6th riot whereas the anti-American patriots beat the hell out of cops, thrashed the US Capitol and threatened to kill people. There is always huge push back against my criticism of these thugs. Yesterday was a peaceful protest where nobody got arrested or hurt. Yet the people defending thug are butthurt over peaceful protesters. With this in mind is it fair to say that you are more turned on by felons beating up cops and destroying US property than hippies singing and humming songs? If so, how do you guys call yourselves true patriots if your interest is anti-cop and anti-American?

Disgusting. You should be ashamed of yourselves if you don’t like our values and law enforcement.

I pay taxes and those in power waste what I contribute to useless, ridiculous programs or projects. The taxes I pay are just wasted. If someone, anyone, in government can direct my payment to programs that benefit me or my fellow American citizens I fully support them.

You mean you pay Nettingyahoo in Bombs to blow up children. Those are taxes. And to launch rockets to Mars like some deranged Opal Tycoon pedo affiliate.

Pretty sad bonehead Maggot comments. You are the reason that America’s federal government has turned against what was our wonderful country. You are more than welcome to move to Russia and get sucked into the war with Ukraine. Tell your sick views to many thousands of hard working federal workers who have lost their jobs with NO reasonable and justifiable reason. Let’s see you go instantly from livable income to no income. Tell your family that they no longer have a home to live in or money for food and clothes or health care. May you and your fellow ignorant and arrogant Maggots rot in Hades.

If the jobs lost were superfluous why are you asking me to pay for them? Those who had jobs, just because they were paid by tax funds, need to demonstrate that their daily efforts were a value to American citizens not just a placeholder in a government bureaucracy.

You notice they never mention specifics, it’s always “we losing our rights” or “Elon is going to rob us” or “Trump is doing away with democracy”. Tell us exactly what have they eliminated that you thought was a good thing. We’ve been paying other country’s ridiculous tariffs for years, why is it okay for them to charge us but not for us to charge them?

Yawn… they can protest for the next 12 years… the democrats need a make over if they ever expect to regain power and this lot doesn’t seem to get that yet…
