Thankfully, there was no significant violence at Saturday’s much anticipated “No Kings” protests. I think I know the reason why. It’s tough to riot when you’re over 70, and most of these protesters looked like aging, white hippies.
 
Big Media says 7 million people participated around the country, but no one can prove that, so call me skeptical. The turnout in Chicago was a flop, even though the city has been Ground Zero in the battle between the Left and the Trump administration over immigration enforcement.
 
Several commentators noted that the protests appeared concentrated in liberal cities and states that no Republican will win. That reinforces the argument that the No Kings protests aren’t an organic grassroots movement but just another left-wing “astroturf” effort paid for by George Soros and other far-left groups.
 
Here’s something I learned fairly quickly in the political debate: The media downplays huge conservative crowds as “a few thousand,” while small leftist crowds are described as “hundreds of thousands.” The Washington Post always downplays the crowd at the annual March for Life, while it hypes the small gang of pro-abortion counter-protesters.
 
When Promise Keepers planned their Stand In The Gap rally in 1997, it quickly became clear that it was going to be big. At the time, I rented a helicopter to take aerial photographs over the gathering because I knew the media would minimize the size of the crowd.
 
Christian friends at the Pentagon, whose jobs involved carefully estimating crowd sizes, came up with a figure that was way beyond what the Washington Post and other media outlets reported.
 
At all costs, the fake news media had to stop conservative Christian men and their families from feeling like they mattered. They wanted them to feel like they were an insignificant group compared to whatever the Left’s latest fad was.
 
This is part of the propaganda war the Left plays every day, and minimizing the influence of conservatives is just one way they do it.
 
 
 
Left-wing Lunacy
 
Other than wanting no king, and I’m certain 100% of us don’t want a king, what were the protesters’ actual issues? Well, their signs were a good indication of what they wanted.
 
They want open borders, and they don’t want any illegal aliens deported from the country. In every video of protests I saw, there were signs calling for the end of private property and attacks on success. They want no fossil fuels, no oil, no coal, no natural gas, or anything we need to run a modern economy.
 
This was a nationwide socialist rally, and their agenda is a big danger to the future of our country and to our children and grandchildren.
 
There was also a lot of hate in these leftist mobs.
 
There were plenty of signs calling for Donald Trump’s death—from “86 47” to “Kings Get Guillotines” and “Cholesterol, Do Your Job.” Other signs read, “Charlie Kirk had it coming.”
 
One speaker at a No Kings protest in Chicago called for immigration police to be “shot and wiped out.” He works at a local college.
 
A Chicago elementary schoolteacher was seen on video mocking Charlie Kirk’s assassination. How would you like your child in her class?
 
And there was this disgusting sign mocking the attempted assassination of Donald Trump and the murder of Charlie Kirk:
