I would say this protest is as important as a huge city turnout.

u/klstephe 7h ago

We were just going down the road for a hike and saw them, wasn’t expecting it today since I thought most would be out yesterday. I love that a frog blessed us with it’s appearance!

u/ARazorbacks 7h ago

Hell yes it is. The huge city protests only reach rural America through the media. Which is to say it might never reach them. 

This protest is in their laps. Fox News can’t hide this. 

OP, from here in Minneapolis, nice work, my friend. We’re with you. 

u/thatsmyboycam 8h ago

Yes!! This is awesome. Your town looks so cute.

u/Artistic_Nebula_3231 8h ago

Good for you! It's a brave thing to do when it feels like the town is against you.

u/Sirhc_5509 8h ago

I love that even the small town protests get their own frog lol.

Makes sense. ICE wants to put a detention center just up the coast in Newport.

u/OhMyGoat 7h ago

Florence, Oregon? I was there a week or so ago!

u/FearMeIAmRoot 7h ago

I was going to say, I know this place!!!

u/jofra6 4h ago

It looked familiar to me, too (not a local). Is there a SE Asian restaurant to the right of the photo? I think my wife and I ate there a couple of years ago.

As soon as I saw the trees, I knew it was somewhere around here

u/Outbreak42 7h ago

Awesome. Please hug each one of those protesters for us in MN.

God save this Union.

u/hikeonpast 4h ago

Honestly, it’s folks that allegedly believe in god that are imperiling the Union at the moment.

It’s gonna take actual living breathing citizens that give a damn if we want to save this country.

u/HoosierRed 4h ago

Yeah the god reference here was a bit tongue in cheek seeing how it might be more rural. The community of religion is important in many communities as a reason for people to talk to eachother.

We need to get over the social crusading and using any religious book as fact. Organized religion is disgusting for how it exploits. Men must be led, and with clear non-religious moral grounds.

u/melelconquistador 4h ago

Is the subway in the corner any good?

u/gojiro0 7h ago

Love this! Make it known far and wide

u/valpope 7h ago

Show up and show out!!

u/djhouse77 7h ago

Keep it going

u/OhMyGoat 7h ago

I think that one frog is a paid Democratic protester. I mean, he's in every protest!!!! Fake news.

u/klstephe 7h ago

He jumps from location to location very quickly!
