Organizers for the "No Kings" protests set for Saturday in Minnesota, with the biggest gathering set outside the State Capitol in St. Paul, have canceled all events following the targeted political shootings of state Rep. Melissa Hortman and state Sen. John Hoffman overnight.
I was at the capital protest, didn’t even realize it was canceled until they started talking.
I was also at the Earth Day protest and I loved seeing way more people today. I didn’t do the march and it was awesome seeing the march come down the street toward the capital grounds.
I wish we could have had their planned schedule today but I’m glad they still did something and it was a good mix of protest and the somber reality of the assassinations.
