I told Bill after arriving home from yesterday's "No Kings" rally in Sandpoint that I probably would not be able to remember all the friends (teachers, preachers, medical personnel, legal experts, business owners, contractors, former students, longtime Sandpointers, etc.) that I saw at the rally.
I can vouch for the fact that these people received no payment for showing up other than big smiles and good cheer from familiar faces.
If rally attendees came from out of town, they were most likely folks like my brother who came back to his hometown for a family visit.
When others who know better refer to participants at these rallies as "left wing, fringe lunatics," I find it insultingly ludicrous and FAKE NEWS from non-credible sources!
It was fun couple of hours.
Probably the only person who may not have liked attending was the big truck guy who let off black smoke from his rig into the crowd.
Within seconds, one of Sandpoint's finest, parked just north of Courthouse, chased him down and gave him a ticket.
No more blowing smoke after that.
One fine rally!

We had a small No Kings where I am in So Indiana. Around 800. So not big. But there were 3 other rallies within a 22 mile radius (2 were within a 5 mile radius), so maybe it would have been bigger if we had all consolidated with Louisville, KY. Glad to see Sandpoint resisters out protesting.
We had a small protest here in southern Indiana. About 800-900 attendees. Glad to see the folks in Sandpoint protesting.
Bonner County resident and Sandpoint High School graduate here. I’ve been to 3 No Kings so far. Do you know when we get our checks from Mr. Soro’s? 🤷🏼♀️
