My gf was planning on going too. She's definitely liberal leaning and anything involving "women's rights" she's all about.like_that;1833564 wrote:My gf went and I asked her if she even knew why she was marching. The best she could come up with was "for equality." I asked if she didn't think women were equal to men in the US then does honestly she fee inferior to me or feel like she was at disadvantage. She couldn't say yes. I then told her I hope she is marching for the Pakistani 18 year who was set on fire by her parents recent for eloping. Women in the US crying about equality is the most ridiculous thing in 2017. Can you imagine what the world thinks looking at this? Relative to the other countries, it's the equivalent of Wall Street marching for poverty. It's also hilarious they chose this date. At least do a random date during trumps presidency. Doing it the day after he is inaugurated just comes off as sour grapes.
I am out reffing in VA, otherwise I contemplated trolling the march by bringing a sign that said "did you sign up for the selective service? Yes or no."
However, on her drive home from work this afternoon, she was stopped at a red light on Michigan Ave (we live on Michigan Ave but about a half a mile north of all the protests) and when the light went green, a group of young black women on the way to the March surrounded her car and started chanting a feminist chant and gave my gf a god damn panic attack. They didn't leave the car for several min. It took a group of other women to come over and yell at the black girls and ask if they can see how clearly upset my gf is in the car. I had to run over to where she was parked because she was so upset. Needless to say, she didn't end up going to the rally lol.
Most of the people at this rally don't give a shit about the actual "cause" the rally is about. They're just out starting trouble and like you said, trying to get on tv.
They're what you would call worthless pieces of trash.
