TO ALL WHO WENT TO PROTESTS--
Be it in California or D.C., in your hometown or halfway across the country, I just wanted to say THANK YOU so much. Today was my first day as a DUer, though I've lurked for months, and it meant so much to me to see all these posts about rallies and marches.

I've been trying to post an individualized thank you on every board I see related to marches/rallies/protests, but there are SO many of them---what a great thing!

Others, please post your own thank yous/march commentaries/whatever here.

Again, thank you, and bless you for going!

:yourock:

:patriot:

Truly thankful,

:grouphug: WritingIsMyReligion

12. Our pleasure!
Bay Area DUers represented well -- I think there were around 15 in or group total. Should have some pictures for posting soon.

It was a great day here.

14. Thank you so much for this thread
I came back from the rally all excited about today, only to read thread after thread about ANSWER and how terrible it all was. I don't need anyone to thank me for marching, I did it for myself, my children and my country, but I certainly didn't expect to see so many threads filled with complaints.

Welcome to DU, your voice is certainly appreciated today.

15. Thank you---
both for the welcome and for marching. I undestand why you did it, but since I am still in high school and unable to drive yet, knowing you guys were out there is amazingly uplifting.

:hug:

26. Marching in Los Angeles was truly an uplifting experience!
I'm thankful to have been there, and grateful to everyone else who marched anywhere! The energy of the crowd was INCREDIBLY rewarding! After feeling defeated for so long about the nightmare that America has become, I'm now re-energized and ready to fight again!!!!!

THANKS EVERYBODY!!!!!
