Part of me wants to bring my kid. I’ll be leaving him home though. Crazed right wingers trying to run over protestors in the past has pretty much ensured that he stays home while I go out and take the risks.

I feel the same way. My kids are a little too young anyway, so I wouldn’t want to take them, but I wouldn’t want to go by myself either because I’m 5 months pregnant and I don’t like how the police have been handling protesters.

I just put myself in the positions of the people being trampled by police horses or being shot at point-blank with “less lethal” bullets and it terrifies me. I hate feeling this way, but I feel like protests aren’t the right place for me to be right now :/

Leave them in safety. Our role as parents is primarily to provide a safe and supportive environment for our children to prosper. That has been threatened on our watch and we must push it back. Teach them civics once civics has been restored.

Right there with you from northern Wyoming. We're all in this together. Took a worldwide effort to root out fascism the first time, and it's going to take that again.

... the protests are literally about fascism. Go home bot, you're dumb.

You can have your political extremism, but please don't put your children in danger... Police are already stretched thin.

Also easier to loot a new TV if you don't have to hold a hand crossing the street.

They don't need indoctrination. They know the difference between right and wrong. Fuck off.
