Where are the mass marches?

I'm willing to go, but no one is really doing anything. We need to be in the streets, not on the computers ... although they help a lot, staring down several million people is much harder to ignore.

65 million voted for Hillary. Why aren't we all out in the streets, demanding this crap stops?

I'm looking into something local because I can't go to Texas. I'll post what I find.

Some DUers have gone to the border to protest. Maybe if you google protest marches for immigrant children or something in that vein you could get results.

getting going. Checked back now and the dance card sure did fill on up. I'm pretty certain this will be a galvanizing issue. PLUS, there will be more photos, videos, audios, stories coming out and then let's not forget the inedible tragedy that will occur to one or many of these kids at these facilities. Time bomb waiting to happen.

How in the world do you NOT HAVE things in place before undertaking this? I mean we know something is wrong with them but seriously, they can't carry out any plan competently. It's not even that difficult to figure out that you gonna need a lot more super centers if your gonna warehouse children.

So yeah June 30th - and call the congress creeps. https://contactsenators.com/

Partially because we're a large country and these detentions are being done in remote locations, partially because the policy and its impact are relatively new, partially because the most effective way to fight this is via the courts.
