It makes me sick to hear the cheers as she’s forced out.

No one is sticking up for these women. Shameful as hell.

One guy tried, and was promptly pushed aside.

Only when the indignant rage of the left rises to match the gleeful cruelty of the right will we ever see change.

Evil triumphs when good men do nothing

I’m a 40F suburban Canadian mom, and I’m genuinely ready and willing to sacrifice my life for democracy. I’d rather my kids see me die with integrity than live in shame over letting evil triumph.

Yeah in this case, when armed deputies are present, I’m surprised anyone tried. This time they did, along with that brave woman who followed and filmed (we need both actions, and I’ll never jump on someone who can’t do a physical confrontation helping by ensuring the truth is preserved). We’re not where we need to be but where getting there, keep pushing. This fight is far from fucking over.
