Pussyhat March

Here is a link to a site that shows how to knit the hat:

I'm not sure what you mean by "intrinsically value human life." I value human life in that I don't like to see suffering. It's not a numbers game for me; I think quality of life is far more important than just being alive.

Trump's presidency cannot last with all this vitriol and disrespect for it from the honorable masses. Oh well. The fascists tried.

As I remember, soon after Obama's election, you had tea baggers demonstrating against the legally elected President, questioning his birthplace (which was barely concealed racism), stood up for tax cuts for billionaires, and not only called Obamacare communistic, but defended the insurance companies, and advocated for ending the social safety net.
Sound like a tantrum to me, and one in favor of the wrong causes.

^ Apples to oranges...

I think I was clear enough.

My friends were all over this, some of them even traveled to DC to march in the main event, though they may have originally planned on being there for a different inauguration.

If Aspies are somehow involved, then that doesn't make any sense.

Well, if I understand your statement, it is that abortion is not a human act. But I'm not sure how you got to this conclusion. So I guess it's just an ad hominem insult.
I would argue that abortion is quite human. It is a considered response to a potential outcome. Animals would never think this far ahead.

Means we should be better than that. Accusing me of ad hominem attacks only amuses me.

Again, with the vague statement. Better than having to kill unwanted offspring? Perhaps if people took more care not to become pregnant and perhaps if the world were not one of the seven levels of Hell, then it would be better to bring children into the world. But it isn't like that and pretending that it is because it should be, only bring people into the world whose experience of it really isn't that great.


Well, I'm happy you're amused.

I'm pretty sure it was the pledges to disrupt the flow of traffic and harass attendees along with spitting on police officers, smashing storefront windows and setting things on fire including vehicles, that somehow always looks like a crime.

If protesting looks a crime these days, it's because of all the rampant leftist inanity that's been going on.



Honorable masses? Are you serious?



So this "Pussyhat" protest is supposed to be something serious? Because it looks pretty silly to me.

One thing I want to know. If Donald Trump's "grab em by the p***y" remark was so horribly offensive, why all the countless jokes about it? Why is it such a laughing matter along those lines, up to having a "pussyhat" march? Seems like mass utter nonsense to me.

...I saw some clips on CNN of PH March speakrs , including saying she was one of the : nasty women : - Obviously , recalling Trump,s dis of Hillary back during the debates . - , this speaker saying she wwas : like...: various feminist icons , both dead (: Eleanor , Rosa... and living (: Gloria , Michelle..............She did manage to cite a Republican woman , : Condoleeza : - Though I suppose a load of the gung-ho conservative posters here wouldconsiderher a RINO ! (I,m uncertain what her official stance re: supporting Trump was in the end , but I am inclined to think she never officially came out with amessage of support for him .)

...To answer your bottom question , I imagine that the PH March folk would say they,re trying to : reclaimtheir phrase : - and call attention to their march , and their grievances with Trump , with their use of : p**** : using the fact that , within lingo , that the : it,s Garfield and Mehitabel : usage of it is considered offensive in the MSM if you use it in the sense that Trump used it in the : Tic-Tac tape : !

I have, elsewhere on WP, written that the Tea Party was originally created by five Libertarian Party activists in Massachusetts years before it grew to regional fame by spawning several similar groups in other American regions. When the Republican National Committee ended up controlling the Tea Party after an interparty coup of sorts, the Tea Party splintered into several factions which left the RNC owning and operating the one remaining Tea Party in the nation. Since then, the Tea Party has been silenced by the RNC, hasn't it? Now, because that particularly Tea Party griped publicly about the 2008 election, it is entirely in keeping with my initial description of the recent marchers in Washington, both were seen as self-evident losers on world broadcasts. Though, I thank you for taking up my challenge, and succeeding to identify another such group of marchers.

Remember, I am politically unaffiliated.

I was right behind where this picture was taken! I recognize some of the hand made signs.

I suggest that those of you who "don't get the reasons for the march" do some reading. We're all on the internet - go find some articles that aren't on FOX or MRA chatrooms. They will tell you what the deal is.

You could also just go to the organizer's page. https://www.womensmarch.com/mission/

The park service has a policy of not releasing numbers, but I was fascinated by the instruments a few men around me were using to measure the crowd. They were standing on an army-type truck. I heard it first hand when the guy doing the measuring started yelling, "2.2 million!!" And a few minutes later, "2.5 million people!! !" He was very excited. Generally, even very large marches don't get more than 500,000 people. It was so big, we couldn't actually march. There was nothing to march too. The people packed the area for 1/2 mile or so. Most people there couldn't even see the rally. Some people did eventually walk the march route, as things thinned a little from everyone spreading out. The rally part lasted over 4 hours. Madonna came at the end of it, and another pop celeb that I can't remember the name of - Toni Braxton? My friends say she's really popular.

It's an impressive turnout no doubt about that altho the exact number is always something to be wrangled with, there have a been a lot of rallies and marches in Washington even during my lifetime and they almost always claim a million+ attendees. If you fill up the Mall then it's a ton of people, that stuff all seems way closer together on TV.

Seems like attendees did not pick up after themselves however...
