Bozeman protest

[MTGomer]

Just drove through downtown. There are four women and one other person still hard at it, chanting into a microphone.

Genuine question for the marchers on here, how do yall figure out you're supposed to be making signs and protesting? Is it a reddit thing? Or a group chat of sorts?

I'm usually pretty busy on the weekends, I found out about this when I drove through town and the streets were lined with angry old people.

In sourcing different types of social media the word gets out. Everyone was in their own little circles saying something needed to be done and now, so someone or group of people grabbed it up like they were mad, then about two weeks ago started pointing to this Hands Off march for this past Saturday. No organized group I belong too advertised this. I went by myself and meet up with people that I hadn't saw in years. There will have to be more hands on deck. Not sure how or who originally got the ball rolling but it didn't matter. Glad things got going in a positive movement.

Were they just chanting at clouds or were they having a full blown conversation with pieces of cardboard like they did at the library a few weeks ago?

Where's my check?

I was there representing Federal Land Management Employees, Federal Unions, and Public lands, who paid me to be there?

I heard a report saying that when the people arrives they were given signs and sheets with the answers to talking points unit saying that they were paid to be there. I wouldn't be surprised if some were paid, but that's not my point. Someone paid to have those signs and printed material ready in advance, and on sight.

Just based on your posts, many things get past you. Speaking of angry, it seems you'd fit in, maybe a little wet behind the ears.

BTW, unless you've not been paying attention, this is far more involved than just cuts to Government. This is the very dismantling of our Democracy. Trump has no intention of ever leaving office at the end of his term.

This isn't a blind push for power, it's a coordinated attack on our constitution using project 2025 and money from Oligarchs cofferrs . He's over 30% of the way through the programs implementation.

It's comments like these that make me shake my head. You have no way of knowing this, but present it as truth. It's very hard to respect.

You don’t see the irony here, do you?

The truth is there for you to see, IF you choose too. Not looking for respect, just pointing out the obvious. His actions speak volumes, for everyone.

I'm not surprised at all by your hypocritical statements. Soon we'll all be drawing lines in the sand.Those supporting the US constitution and those supporting change.

I can see that your wildest fears are your truth, and that is why you call me names I don't earn.

Even less respect.

I am out.

Nope. The reporter was actually given the talking point sheets by the guy he was interviewing because it took too long to find the right answers on the sheet, after he was asked them.

I’ll take anyone who supports public land. We need all the help we can get. You guys need to chill. We are all in this together.

Unfortunately I think some folks have already drawn their line in the sand even if it hurts public lands.

Blinders are on, teams are chosen.

Spontaneity is the enemy of propa-protest. No irony folks, simply one of those 'both sides' tactics.

Apparantly to some its fine to storm the Capitol and incite violence but peaceful protest is scorned.

Easily offended much? Well, since we're making assumptions, I'll try it out.

(Deleted)

Reread my post and try not to be so easily offended. It was a legit question. I get it. You're getting older and your eyes and ability to understand are dwindling, but come on.

Probably chanting something unrelated to the reason for the gathering?

Our body our choice or something if I had to guess

Who cares if they were Rjthehunter. How’s that funny?

Because it's the stereotypical person I'd see chanting in to a mic on the TV.

I can see how my comment has potential to offend you based on your name. My apologies.

"I heard a report" already implies your post is BS. Your post is replete with false informaton. This thread is about a Bozeman event which I attended firsthand. Those signs were definitely not produced by someone getting paid and they ranged in quality and design all over the board. Some nicely constructed and artfully worded, as well as some very shoddy. No one was paid to be there.
Your post is obviously ideologically driven and based on who-knows-what phony source of information.

It's not, but whatever. This board is full of logically stupid idiots. I;m out.

Enjoy your victory as Trump fixes your country.
