Speakers promoted uniting together to stop ICE and to change the constitution with additional provisions for undocumented immigrants.

There was music and dancing leading one to say it seemed more like a block party than a protest.

Dozens wore costumes of the grim reaper, dolphins, frogs, eagles, bunnies and more.

Wouldn’t a King of country be able to 1-open of the government regardless that the other side is wanting to keep it shutdown and 2-not allow a “No Kings” protest within the country, so since we have government shutdown that the democrats want to keep it shutdown and had a protest then logiclly we do not have a king running our government, just a majority elected president.

Hope everyone votes in November 4th special election. One voice-one vote. Most effective way to handle differences on policy. Especially local issues. Turn out and make your mark. Prop 50 is an important issue.

If these people want Communism then send them to a Communistic country to get a little taste. The LGBTQ plus plus people will never return, I guarantee it.
