Photos from Denver protest on Saturday.
I didn't take these, I was in DC. But I got this link from The November 3rd Movement here in Denver, and the shots are too good to not share. It's great to see all the usual suspects plus many, many new faces.

You've made me proud, Denver!

2. Big kick! I was in Denver. The speakers were great!

And the crowd was fired up! The Denver Post said about 1000, which puts the attendance at about 1500.

We had about 500 in Birmingham Alabama, too. (The South):think:
Sponsored by United for Peace and Justice. A lot of vets from Vietnam and Iraq. Vietnam amputee spoke from his chair.
It was a March and Rally with a good turnout in spite of the news or newspapers refusing to advertise the event. Most of the public didn't know.

Betcha didn't see the pictures from there. I posted them Sunday, got a couple of nice remarks and it disappeared forever.

We're trying (here), too. Good for you and Denver !

(voted)



edit: spelling

7. Can you repost the link to the Alabama photos here?
I'd love to see them!

And thanks for voting this onto the Greatest page. I'd been really disappointed with the last few rallies I went to in Denver, it really warmed my heart to see this turnout.

9. Thank you ....
There are no words to describe the DC March....the pictures and "Spirit of the People" take my breath and make me jump for joy.

THEY HAVE MY UPMOST GRATITUDE AND RESPECT.:applause:


I do think our fellow Protesters from around the country and the world deserve a pat on the back.
People are finally "Getting It" everywhere.
