Hot Springs, Arkansas No Kings Protest

Last edited Sun Jun 15, 2025, 06:23 PM - Edit history (1)

I'd say something more than 400 people in park on Central Avenue at Federal Courthouse.

People of all ages. Just a bunch of Arkies peaceably assembling to seek a redress of grievances.

A guy showed-up as a counter protester but the crowd ignored him and he quickly left.

UPDATE: The state-wide newspaper reported the crowd size as approximately 500 and that the counter protestor was arrested. I didn't see the arrest or why he was arrested.

We've vacationed near there a few times. Always felt like a very red area.

It appears that Magats have lost considerable steam.

Amirite?

Americans have been pushed to the point of resistance.
