The resistance is appearing in unexpected places.

[Ocelot II]

This sign in a yard in the People's Republic of Minneapolis was put up shortly after the election. It lights up bright pink. I love it.

1. The Resistance.

It has a nice ring to it. Sign me up.

[Whatthe_Firetruck]

18. Resistance...

...is NOT futile

[elleng]

37. Not at all futile, in fact NO WAY futile; MANDATORY!!!

[elleng]

38. DITTO!!!

[hlthe2b]

4. Makes me emotional. May we see more and more...

[William769]

5. Let's hope it keeps growing & growing.

[Hotler]

6. To bad this wasn't seen on the steps of the Capital with all the Dems in both houses standing behind it.

That would have given my spirit a boost.

[CrispyQ]

13. Yes! Where are they?

Our spirits could use a boost. We know the media isn't our friend & IMO we've failed badly on that front the past 45 years, letting the media & the GOP define us. Now the media's cowed by Trump & they really don't want to cover dems in any positive way. Now is not the time for timidity from our leaders.

It's a new congress. Maybe they're regrouping & need a bit of time, but I don't have a lot of confidence we'll see much pushback. There will be some voices, sure, but not as a group, an entire party. We've been going-along-to-get-along for a long time. A true opposition party would never have let it get this bad & we're never going to have a true opposition party as long as our electoral process is a for-profit industry. And that was what we were up against before Trump.

Humanity's on a deadline that's getting closer & closer. This is really the global elite's a last grab for power & resources before it all crashes. Man, do I feel for the little kids in my neighborhood & the shit they're gonna see. But I guess from their perspective it will be like frogs in a pot. ???

[elleng]

36. It's a new congress, and the next one will be NEWer

, and MUCH BETTER! I'm counting on it!!!

[Diamond_Dog]

26. Yes, that would have been awesome.

[Fla Dem]

7. Brave souls.

[Ocelot II]

11. They're preaching to the choir in these parts,

but it's good to see anyhow.

[Fla Dem]

12. Yes it is. But threats can come from anywhere.

Even if it's just one neighbor down the street.

[question everything]

8. Yours?

[Ocelot II]

9. No - I wish!

I do have a sign in my yard that's just black - no lettering at all.

[bdamomma]

25. Black

to signify "mourning".

Hmmm... I like the Resistance sign, but what about something to alert like-minded people like us, to stump others, like once we see it we know they are part of the resistance. What would be considered??? A bird, (eagle or dove), initials like RF (Resist Fascism), or something else like a play on words, BTP (Boston Tea Party) some sort of defiant act.

[Think. Again.]

10. Safely, peacefully, quietly, Resist.

[usonian]

14. Memo to Trmp: Don't cease and desist. Just decease.

We'll work out the rest.

For your encouragement:

[elleng]

35. YES!!!!

[NoMoreRepugs]

15. Billboards across America should be next.

[elleng]

34. YES!!!!

[Renew Deal]

16. It's starting to wake up

It started slow but I see more pushback, which is good.

[elleng]

33. Which is GREAT!!!

[BonnieJW]

17. And if any rethug wants to know what exactly this family is resisting,

They can answer, "Carbs"

[ahlnord]

19. not "unexpected"

I would say that such a sight in Minneapolis is NOT unexpected. Folks have their feet on the ground here.

[progressoid]

21. Right.

If you told me this was south west MN, that would be surprising.

[iemanja]

20. which neighborhood?

[Ocelot II]

22. Standish.

[Cha]

23. Brilliant.. TY!

[littlemissmartypants]

24. What do you think about...

Tying black ribbons on trees? Or wreaths of black ribbon on doors?

I'm considering a black armband. I already wear black frequently but I usually do it with red or pink or blue as contrasting colors.
