They are trying to scare people, so they will stay home.
They are scared of us. We are the Majority. We are the mandate.
We the People!

Try to be incommunicado with the outside world as much as possible while you're protesting -- just totally be with the people you're with -- so that you're not 'located' in your location settings. That's data. It's sent to your carrier which would then turn it over to Homeland upon request. Why? Because that's what telecom businesses do, nothing personal.

Donnie Wannabe could be followed by a ruthless despot, or a sequence of weak and unpredictable tin pots,
We could have a sequence of somewhat tolerant but mediocre and corrupt governments ...
Unhappy possibilities abound

As reference, the Army is currently around 500K, Marines are 175K.
They'll soon realize we outnumber them.

Don't get caught ... be smart and leave your phone at home.
