Just returned from the protest in downtown

Wheeling WV. I am not good a estimating crowds but may 4-500. Everything went peacefully the majority of cars honked in support, a few idiots though. Today is also the yearly Pride festival so it was good time to have the No Kings protest. There was also a protest in neighboring Elm Grove, I heard a couple hundred came out for that one. No trouble at either.
