Politics Happy “No King’s” Day, Phoenix!!

Good morning fellow Arizonans! I’m proud of all my fellow American’s protesting today. Let’s see your signs, pics and videos! Post here to spread the love and inspiration. We are in this together. United We Stand. NO KINGS! 🇺🇸

Remember to keep things peaceful and kind, both on the streets are on this thread.

Proud to live in Phoenix today. The turnout downtown was better than I expected. It was my first protest. I was nervous to go, but I stepped out of my comfort zone and the result was an unexpectedly great experience with like minded, friendly, decent human beings. Thanks Phoenix!

It was more like a tailgate party than a protest. So many heroes were handing out water too! Everyone was friendly, there was non-stop cheering for cars that drove by with flags and signs.

I saw a total of six cops through the whole thing, they were off to the side early on then disappeared. They’ve probably had more trouble working security at a Taylor Swift concert.
