(60,010 posts)and everybody yelled how disrespectful it was to "wear the flag"
which it still is, if you read the flag rules..
which no one appears to do since I see flags in front of houses, on porches, in the rain, all night long, or hung until it wears away, etc.

(51,638 posts)anti-fake prez type rallies I have attended are showing them more and more. I bought one myself but it is hard to carry both it and my signs so I wear it as a cape (Captain America).
ProudLib72
(17,984 posts)But if you just wore it around wherever, then people would probably think you were a tRump supporter. That is something that really bothers me. They are the opposite of what the flag stands for, yet they use it as an identifier.

(51,638 posts)HIS supporters ARE crazy no matter what they wear or or where they are. You should encounter them in person...very strange. The Proud Boys (carrying flags of course) are really violent and scary.

(50,566 posts)This is the DC Black History Night Tour:
https://www.viator.com/tours/Washington-DC/DC-Black-History-Night-Tour/d657-43206P2
You see:
the Frederick Douglass National Historic Site
the MLK Jr. Memorial
the Good Home Communities, and some of the oldest historic black churches in America
Howard University
the site of the Pearl Affair
you learn about black astronomer Benjamin Banneker
You cruise down the U Street Corridor, "the jazz mecca of DC."
The tour then goes to the cemetery that served as a stop on the Underground Railroad...
and ends at the African American Civil War Memorial
This looks like a really good tour to me.

(4,787 posts)He does both a day and night tour (which visit some different places relative to each other).
This article is about another event where the guy doing it planted that sign behind where Wolf Blitzer was reporting from outside of the Capitol, so his placard was visible whenever they show Blitzer.
It is one of two tours that Folden has been running since November, the other being a longer tour of sites affiliated with the Underground Railroad. Both begin at the Anacostia Metro, with a first stop at the Panorama Room for what Folden claims is the second-best view of D.C. The Night Tour then goes on to a number of sites that few visitors ever seethe location of the Snow Riot and a Georgetown cemetery that likely harbored runaway slavesalong with more well-known, if still under-visited locales, like the Frederick Douglass House.
....
To get the word out, Folden says he's been popping up at protests and other newsworthy scenes around townsign in towbeginning at the Trump International Hotel on the night the business mogul won his surprise victory. Most recently, he brought it to Trump's "Pittsburgh Not Paris" rally at Lafayette Park on Saturday (you can spot it around the .09 mark in this video, nestled among signs thanking the president and denouncing fake news).
"Wherever there's a whole lot of media in town, I'll be right there in the middle," he says.

I don't have TV and don't often see all the images that others are able to view with mainstream. Where are the videos of Trump addressing this "rally?" Was it really an event?
