They feared for their shoes
Ah, the poor snowflakes of the far right don’t want to be wading through a sea of dog poop tomorrow. They’ve canceled the rally.
A right-wing group on Friday canceled a “freedom rally” it had planned for Saturday near the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco, removing one major source of feared violence for city leaders, though others remained.
The group, known as Patriot Prayer, instead planned a news conference at a park in the city on Saturday to explain what its leader Joey Gibson called the failure of police and elected officials to keep the group safe.
Safe from dog poop.
Earlier in the day, hundreds of people rallied raucously and danced against hate at City Hall. They held signs that read “Unite Against Hate” and cheered religious and elected officials who took the microphone to speak of love and champion diversity in a city that famously prides itself as a sanctuary for gays, minorities and people who are in the country illegally.
Hip-hop artist MC Hammer, who grew up in Oakland, railed against the hate that killed leaders in the 1960s, including President John F. Kennedy and Malcolm X.
Not to mention George Moscone and Harvey Milk right there at City Hall.
Plans from other groups had included littering Crissy Field with dog poop, dispatching red-nosed clowns and a giant inflatable chicken that bears the hairstyle of President Donald Trump.
I like the inflatable chicken wearing Don’s hair idea.
That chicken even has the same look on his face.
I see Trump has just pardoned Arpio on the basis he was “just doing his job”.
Off thread I know but…
It isn’t just the hair and the expression. That chicken IS Trump – look at the gestures the wings are making.
I feel embarrassed that I missed that, tiggerthewing. It’s definitely Trump (other than not being orange, of course).
