4. At 2017 my first "Impeach tRump" protest
Fri Mar 28, 2025, 12:14 AM
Mar 2025

I was right up front by the organizers who were speaking to a couple hundred people in San Diego. Two guys had bullhorns and were trying to drown out their speeches. I was so pissed off. They were asked to leave and sheriffs came to calm people down. I never heard of the Proud Boys since they were new and they told the sheriffs that they came down from LA to disrupt the protest. I learned that sheriffs are different than police officers that day in person. Basically they did NOTHING to the two "boys". Finally the chief of police was called and she got to the bottom of it and they were kicked out. The sheriffs were GOP supporters.
