    Protesting nothing at all.

    San Francisco? I didn't know there were still women there. I thought they had all gone gender neutral.

    Thankfully, those nasty women with their foul mouths don’t represent all women like they think they do…

    You are right. I heard no foul language from any of the people attending the march. I was surprised at how calm, polite and respectful the people were. It was not what I expected.

    Not much mess considering there were at least 500,000 people there.

    Apparently you didn't hear their speakers. But I can't post them here. Nor can I post the nasty signs they carried alongside children...Shameful!

    Im sorry to say this Ben but you must be living a sheltered life. Women can & do cuss.....some better than we men do. Remember though that they were protesting a man who bragged about seducing women....one woman who he identified as being married. Then bragged that he regularly kissed them and grabbed their genitalia.

    I sure hope those women got home in time to make dinner for their men.

    I agree with Benjamin. I have many friends who went and to be honest, I had to block some of what was said because it was gross and offensive and not what I'd want my child to see. They SPIT on the pro-life group that was there and tore their signs, they trashed Washington DC and wore hats that were representative of a term that is supposedly offensive to them but they proudly wore. The Bible tells us to not even SPEAK of things that the sinners do in private. I don't need to see hats representing this gross, crude joking.

    I am a formerly unwanted, unplanned fetus. They did not march for me.

    I was agreeing with you. I was not defending the speakers. I was talking about the people around me during the march. All-in-all the folk I saw were in a good mood, there was no obscenities called out, everyone was polite. I did not approve of all the signs, but then I have heard as bad or worse on commerial TV programs. And, to my mind, the worst of all are many of the so called modern comedians. I find most of them simply foul mouthed.

    I might add that even with half a million there, there were no arrests. In fact I saw policemen and secret service men smiling and talking with people in the crowd. Indeed I talke to several secret service people. They seemed in a good mood and were also polite ... even when they told a kid to climb down out of a tree.


    Here is a photo I took of folk rubbing the noses of police horses.

    Here is the girl the secret service ask to climb out of the tree. It was near the White House. I thought her sign rather creative, interesting play on words.

    While you remember how they are "merely" protesting Trump's vulgar locker room talk also take note of how often they repeat it (the phrase he "dare" used), build on it and redirect it toward men's anatomy (need to grow a ...etc.) and you might begin to understand why I refer to hypocrisy...

    From my prospective, it wasn't the vulgar words used by Trump....it was the actions (demeaning) suggestions that were the wake-up call. He expressed himself as a preditor.

    Need I remind you the kind of stuff Madonna is into? (Rhetorical question...) How about Madonna’s desire to blow up the White House? That lack of respect is not “demeaning” and "expressing" oneself as a “predatory” against other humans? Yeah, some role models Ashley Judd and Madonna are for little girls! Exactly how is this not hypocrisy again? One would have to have blinders only allowing for one-sided women's issues to ever conclude these women's "actions/suggestions" aren't laced in pure hypocrisy every bit as bad, actually worse than Trump's locker room talk...

    If I were in Trump’s position I’d make sure Madonna was placed on the No-fly list…

    The anger has spilled out here. We need to unite as Americans and people of faith.

    Madonna isn't the leader of the free world. What do you say we raise the bar just a little bit for the Commander-in-Chief okay? I see you have adopted the term "locker room talk" just like you were told to by his campaign like a good little sycophant.
