So I went to a rally today.
There was a rally in my town today, to protest what SCOTUS is trying to do to Roe, and I was more than happy to attend. We all stood along a busy highway and held up our signs for passing drivers to see. We weren't a huge crowd, just a few dozen, but we were very visible and very enthusiastic.
Some people brought their own signs, but most of us used these signs that were provided by the local NOW chapter:
The best part was when people driving by would honk their horns to signify agreement. I'm happy to say we got lots of honks! Of course, others drove past us in silence, but we didn't encounter any outright hostility. All in all, it was a great feeling just to stand there with a bunch of people who all shared the same dismay about what's happening in this country and were ready to fight!
I hear there have been lots of events like this all over the country since the leak, and I hope they continue. The forced birthers need to be continually reminded that they do NOT own the bodies of American women and we're not going to take this lying down!
