https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2016/dec/08/womens-march-on-washington-lincoln-memorialSo, our Fuhrer in Chief is gonna ban protest in DC while he is being crowned. No Million Woman March at the Lincoln Memorial. No walk down Pennsylvania Avenue. If its publicly owned and historical, it now belongs to Trump. So, what's a protester to do?
Simple. Occupy. Every single Trump owned property around the world. All the time. 24-7. Starting on inauguration day.
Ball's in our court, dudes. We gonna sit back and let ourselves be muzzled? I didn't think so.
Hint: Trump has a hotel in DC. Bonus points for this allows folks all across the country who do not have time off work or money for plane/train/bus fare to participate.
Mark your calenders folks. On January 21, 2017 plan to exercise your Constitutional right to check out the closest Trump owned property wearing Pussy Grabber in Chief T-shirts.

Is that possible?

These folks have some pretty thin skin and easily agitated. Be careful if you go anyway.

If you can't be there yourself, give aid and support to acquaintances who can. Everybody get a Guy Fawkes mask, and keep it handy.
God bless us, every one.

It's our city.
What happened when Sherriff Jim Clark said marchers couldn't cross the Pettis Bridge?
