Women are coming. POC are coming. Now the Children are coming.

[sheshe2]

We see you. We have known you for a very long time. You have tried beating us, starving us, shooting us, regulating us, jailing us, taking our vote away.

You tried your beatings in Selma and beyond and the did not stop. You starved us then force fed the women that just wanted the right to vote. Now you are calling for the death penalty for women that has an abortion. Take a step back here. They advocate the death of the mother for her choice over her body. You shoot black men in seconds of arriving at an alleged crime. No repercusions for you ever. You are allowed to get away with murder. The crime, skin color and sex.

Yes, we see you clearly. The party that advocates pro life is in fact pro death. There is no other way to read the mandates they set up. They are the party of death and the ugly assholes claim gods right.

We have tried for years to make this right. You never listened.

Yet wait. Hope is coming. We have done this for eons. Women, POC. LGBT. Now the children are coming and they give me hope.



We have fought for years. We are tired and getting old. It is the childrens time.

1. Your post gives me hope......

The more Conservative scum like Ted Nugent, Hannity, Ingharam, LaPuerre, Loesch and their ilk attack the Parkland kids, women, People of Color, the LGBTQ community, etc. ,of course they are going to mobilize, organize, and register their peers to vote.

Do they think we are going to just keep taking it without any retaliation with Our voices and votes?

[sheshe2]

4. We are here and we are voting.

We care....some do not.

[Iliyah]

2. K & R

Side note tho. Remember those old horror movies about nature (frogs, ants, rats, cats, et al.) rising up and attacking, I watched a few lately and it reminded me of GOPers, especially t-rump, his family and his cronies.

[sheshe2]

3. I know the scum is coming from beneath theit rocks.

We need to fight them harder.

5. We are coming, and we won't back down

My little red county's Dem party sponsored a March for Our Lives event. We had more than 200 people standing alongside a major thoroughfare with signs and chants. The response was overwhelmingly positive.

That turnout, and that response, stunned us. This is Tea Party central. 230 local citizens, students and kids putting themselves out there like that? Hundreds and hundreds of cars, trucks and motorcycles giving us thumbs up and peace signs?

Oh yeah, we're coming. We will not stop!

[sheshe2]

6. Your little red corner is looking purple.

Brava!!!!

[Amaryllis]

7. Thanks for that. Hope-inspiring.

[raven mad]

11. Ours, too mcar.

Fairbanks North Star Borough - the Golden Heart of Alaska - put the crimson in this red state. But we're also seeing change.

[mcar]

13. From one end of the country to the other!

I love it, raven mad!

[raven mad]

15. And our Midwesterners woork down

while the Southwest works up - get 'em in a pincer!

I seriously do not doubt that my fellow and sister Dems not just can but WIILL hold the line.

[ismnotwasm]

8. Yeah baby

Because fuck this shit. I want a world where kindness is never the exception

[sheshe2]

9. Never the exception.

The rule.

Hey ism.

[elocs]

10. Unless "the children" can prove they will actually show up and vote

it's just words. I'll believe it when I see it.

[sheshe2]

12. You think they won't?

Sad.

My money is on them and they damn well know what the future holds for them. Heartbreaking that you think them so fickle.

[GreenPartyVoter]

20. Agreed. I see a future where they not only vote but run!

[sheshe2]

21. + 1000

[elocs]

23. All they need to do is to put their vote where their mouth is.

Unless they change it, the best predictor of future behavior is past behavior and young people have a terrible track record of actually showing up and voting. I would be happy to be proven wrong, but until there is a change history backs up my point of view.

[crazycatlady]

22. I went to a smaller March For Our Lives

And the local Dem committee registered over 100 people.

This was a college town in upstate NY.

[Beartracks]

14. Keep 'em coming!

Bring some balance!

[peggysue2]

16. Hell, sheshe . . .

We're all coming! Young, old, women, men, straight, gay, people of color, whites, urbanites, rural, abled, disabled. anyone and everyone with a heart and soul.

The Voters Are Coming. And if you see the procession led by children, Beware. Because they are fierce of heart and courage. They've inspired us all.

We are coming. All of us, together.

Enough!

[Lifelong Protester]

We are ALL coming
