But I have my concerns about holding them on a Wednesday. </p><p>Working people will be far less likely to attend, meaning a majority of protesters will be college-age or retired. If you really want to "flood the streets of state capitols," then gather on a weekend afternoon/evening. Many folks need a full half-day just to drive to their capitol.</p><p>If there is anything suspicious, it's that the Right needs an excuse to shut down public assembly right now. The best way to do that would be to have a young-majority, angry protestors, without experienced leadership around to guide them and keep things peaceful.</p><p>The Right might be planting agents of chaos in our midst, to start violence and/or damage property. </p><p>BE ON THE LOOKOUT for agents of chaos, and point them out to those around you, maybe even to police. KEEP IT PEACEFUL.</p><p><a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/r50501" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>r50501</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/Protests" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Protests</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/Feb5" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Feb5</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/Feb5thProtests" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Feb5thProtests</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/PassiveResistance" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>PassiveResistance</span></a></p>
