Everyone remember protest protocols: bring distilled water, don’t film other people’s faces, lock your phone with a passcode not faceID or fingerprints and keep talking to the cops at a minimum

I’ve never once protested anything anywhere. I want to be part of this, but am concerned about going alone. Anyone else in the same boat and want to form a plan to go together?

A bunch of people got arrested the other day in Charleston. Check your city's rules and laws.

Is there a written statement about what the goals are for this? Not trying to nuance troll, but clear goals help spearhead change.

Since we live in the United States of Amnesia Inc., the only thing that will affect change is the wallet.

I think the difference is conservatives bring firearms and liberals dont, this needs to change to get respect. Its time for new thinking and new approaches. Liberals need to show and display they are serious.

Remember SC is a open carry state now!!!!!? Its legal and encouraged just be smart about it. Bring flags, dont let conservatives own the flag its for everyone even TRUE freedom loving americans. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 conservatives will down vote this watch and see..

Confirming the permits are still for a noon start in Columbia, South Carolina? …and it’s peaceful? I’ve never done this before and am looking forward to practicing our first amendment right…especially when so much of our constitution is being unlawfully challenged right now.

I am physically unable to get to Columbia due to my health. Please be careful and as safe as you can. This is definitely necessary for our constitution.

I miss those times when this sub isn’t infested with politics with almost every post. I wish we’d focus more on topics that bring us together as South Carolinians rather than things that divide us and bring out nasty emotions.
