No Kings Redux

[JohnyMac]

I just remembered that tomorrow is the No Kings 2.0 protest. I completely forgot and I have seen no advertising for it this time locally or nationally. I wonder how tomorrows event will compare to the one back on June 14, 2025?

Please post here as you learn about the protests near you.

Locally here June 14, 2025, Honesdale PA Wayne county, the town police reported that there was ~30 people. Most of that 30 people are the same crowd that shows up regularly to protest for what ever cause. Binghamton, NY, the local news reported that 200 protesters showed up.

It's a beautiful crisp fall day in NE Pennsylvania. The trees are at maximum foliage, apple farms have overflowing crowds with families having fun, the final phase of Halloween decorations are going up, etc. We are attending a cider pressing party at one of my MAG's members house later today. I wonder, how many folks will attend the "No King's" rallies vs. enjoying the day with fiends & family. ✌

FRIENDLY REMINDER: Please keep your ears to the RR Tracks on how many people attend this rally in the scheduled locations near your AO. Reach out to your LEO friends late today or tomorrow to get a count. OBH recommended that more important than people attendees is buses parked near the event. Use THIS guide to find a scheduled event near you.

According to the "No Kings Map" there is a protest about 25 miles to the northwest of us in Modesto, CA.  Unfortunately I can't go!  Wife Sandee and me are taking our widowed neighbor to an early dinner at one of our favorite Italian restaurants about 15 miles southwest.

zaneclark, I would go to dinner too vs. going to that event. 

Local SALUTE reports have no violence and depending where they were held, lower than hopeful expected turnouts. I will compile local reports and share when I get them. ✌

Looks like the No Kings organizers just used the same event map from last time, accuracy neither needed nor desired.  The few actualy activities looked more like a mini Grateful Dead convention than otherwise.  Oh well, the right to protest is good.  There is no right to riot and to burn, so this was a success.

Back to my toast and coffee.

Two in my area of NE PA.

Montrose, PA. Susquehanna County Seat, <100 folks with many cars license plates being from NY not PA.
Honesdale, PA. Wayne County Seat. Similar here as in Montrose. Many of the folks were not locals.

Binghamton, NY. The closest major city to my AO, it was estimated by the local news that "hundreds" of protesters showed up. I had breakfast with a retired BPD LEO, and he told me that looking at an elevated level of folks on the local news, it was maybe 300 protesters and you couldn't tell if it was just curious onlookers or protesters.

I am sure in major Blue cities, there were a lot of folks that showed up, however out here in flyover country, not much interest.  ✌

I just did a quick scan through the interwize and there are no guest-o-mates on attendees for larger Blue cities. If it was a large number there would have been more reporting on it.

  In the closest protest to my AO, in Crossville, TN, there were maybe 20-30 people. The anti-protesters numbered over 100.  This is a very conservative area, and they don?t tolerate leftist liberals very well.
