We Had A Small Rally Here Today

[ProfessorGAC]

About 20 people, I'm thinking mostly local, stood on the parking lot of an ice cream shop. (2 blocks north of my house)
They were holding signs saying "Black Lives Matter", " In Memory of Mr. Floyd", "Justice for Floyd", etc.
Heard several cars beeping as they went by.
Some, but not all wore masks, but they were all at least 5 or 6 feet apart, but all facing forward to the street.
Not a big thing, but nice to see the young folks in town taking a strong interest.
We don't have an abusive police force problem in our town, so these " kids" aren't facing this sort of abuse daily.
But, they cared enough to be out there around 3 hours.

2. I Knew It Would Be Small

We don't yet have 6,000 people here.
We're a bedroom community mostly. Homes, apartments and retail. So the vast majority of workers leave town for their job.
Lily white. I'm guessing a half percent black and the same % Latino. Educational level is HS or that and trade training mostly.
The most encouraging thing was when I walked down to say hi, at least one in 3 cars honked, people waving or giving thumbs up.
There was one guy about a hundred feet away on the corner with an "End Is Near" sign, and a "Fuck 12" sign. The latter is an anti-cop saying. I had to look it up. Likely based on Adam 12.
