Protest Sign IDEAS for June 3 (This Saturday!)

I'm starting my sign- a 6-foot high strong cardboard cylinder. I'm going to have just one word on this giant-sized poster: SAD!!!! Big, bold caps and hundreds of craft-supply rhinestones glued onto each letter & exclamation mark.

I made a similar one back in Oct. 2011. I was at the DC Occupy and Stop the Machine. It said "HOKA HEY"- pink/purple/opalescent rhinestones on a black background. It sparkled, & now it's hanging on my bedroom wall despite all the damage.

I've never, in the history of everything, seen anything so creative or engaging as an Anti-Trump protest.



Please feel free to leave your best-AND-worst here.

"SHOW US YOUR TAXES." These two are pretty cool. Be creative!

My only advice is make your sign accessible or intelligible to even the low-information voters.

I wish I could see every sign. I'm so glad to be able to at least search the images, to see the heavier-worded signs close up. That's why I'm going to just go with "SAD!!!!" for this march.

I was thinking of that for a reverse side of a sign for the next local demonstration I go to.
