Just got back from a training session to become a Marshall in a protest rally

This one is for an immediate rally if Mueller gets fired.
Evidently there are 400,000 people signed up with MoveOn. My particular group is with Rise and Resist.
There are 900 groups across the country.
There are 20,000 signed up just in NYC.
Everyone is ready at the drop of a hat to come, rally and protest.
This is exiting! I am ready to work!

It was actually very interesting.
The NYPD is really very good. They will work with protestors.
This was more to prep us how to deal with counter protestors and problems that might arise along the route.
