At this time: You can assemble and peacefully protest against the United States government. Under the First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, you can assemble and engage in peaceful protests, such as a sit-in, in a public space or public forum. Public spaces include sidewalks, streets, public squares, and parks. The federal government, or Congress, can place reasonable restrictions on your speech activity and peaceful assembly, known as “time, place, and manner" restrictions. For example, a large group requires a demonstration permit... Google the facts. However, if trusk and mump have their way, there will be no free speech in this country.

That would be women.
Lady Eowyn, this was a feminist movie with broad appeal, made in an incredibly creative way.
I find this one doubly amusing because I don't do ANY of this stuff but I look half my actual age anyway purely thanks to luck and genetics. That's not even a boast; I literally don't care.
Yes, but when? Life feels dystopian right now with no end in sight
I feel like we're at the burning part and the rising part may not happen.
the secret of adulthood is that none of us really know what we're doing.
There has never been a time in history when people who banned books were the good guys.
Music is wonderful at any age and no one should be looked down upon for whom they choose to listen to.
