Humans don’t need the law’s permission to have rights.

Humans don’t need YOUR permission to have rights.

“Inalienable rights” are intrinsic to the human.

It’s not special treatment to allow people different from you to have the same rights as you.

Only unfuckable fascists think otherwise.

Because I want to be right, I want to be critiqued. It’s the only thing that makes sense. Please inform, enlighten, critique and criticize my positions, beliefs and actions.

We stood.

In front of people who know our names.

150 people is astounding!!

Worland Wyoming.

Might not look so impressive…except this county is larger than Delaware with less than 8,000 people and 80% voted for him 3times.

No kings protesters standing along the Highway/main road in Worland Wyoming! The second protest anyone remembers happening (the first was the June no kings).

Weird. Because 150 people showed up in Worland Wyoming for the second ever protest people remember in town (the first was June’sNO KINGS). And I’m pretty certain that’s massive news.

The county is larger than Delaware with less than 8,000 people. I drove 40 miles to get here.
150 patriotic America Loving Americans gathered to protect our friends, community, laws, constitution and neighbors. In a town with a coffee shop in the quick lube and a three county radius without a Walmart in the reddest state in the union. My sign, on pink poster board, “HANDS OFF MY NEIGHBORS” with symbols for pride, BLM, Mexican, central, and South American immigrants, the elderly, the disabled, the poor and incarcerated. My friends in an inflatable chicken costume holding a “save our constitution” sign and inflatable dinosaur holding “TYRANNY SAURUS WRECKS” sign

I love seeing the massive crowds in big cities. It feels powerful.

But. So did the protest of 150 I joined in the middle of Wyoming.

I drove 40 miles to a county of7500 people that’s larger than the state of Delaware to join the 150ish people.

That’s also powerful.
No kings protestors gathered in Worland Wyoming. Me holding my pink poster board sign saying “HANDS OFF MY NEIGHBORS”. Is this signs 4th protest in Wyoming! I added a progress equality flag, BLM fist, handicap, elderly Mexican flag, central and South America, incarcerated, and poor symbols because lots of people seem to have forgotten who makes up their neighbors! An inflatable chicken holding a “save our constitution” sign and an inflatable dinosaur holding a “TYRANNY SAURUS WRECKS” sign

Yay Idaho neighbors!!! That’s amazing!!!
A crowd of Protesters in Worland Wyoming. A county larger than the state of Delaware with 4,700 people in it. This crowd of 150 is huge if you consider the population density and the fact that a lot of this crowd voted 1,2 or 3 times for Trump!

There were about 150 people at our protest in the middle of Wyoming.

For context- the county is larger than the whole state of Delaware and 4,700 live in the town.

That’s a WHOLE LOTTA PEOPLE who vote red red Republican a whole lotta the time.
Me standing with my pink poster board sign saying “HANDS OFF MY NEIGHBORS” with a progress equality flag, BLM FIST, elderly couple, disability , incarceration central and South America, Mexican flag and poor people symbols. With a crowd that totaled almost 150 of my fellow Wyomingite protestors. An inflatable chicken holding a sign saying “Save our constitution” sign with an American flag in it and an inflatable dinosaur holding a “TYRANNY SAURUS WRECKS” sign with a picture of a dinosaur with Trump hair.

US highway 20 toward Worland Wy, with the Big Horn mountains and Cloud Peak(in clouds) in the distance. There’s one car and no houses. Me holding a pink poster board with “HANDS OFF MY NEIGHBORS” sign with a progress equality flag, wheelchair, elderly couple, poor, incarcerated, BLM, Mexican flag, South and Central America pictures. Standing on the sidewalk in Worland Wyoming with other protestors in the background. An inflatable chicken holding a “save our constitution sign with an American flag on it and an inflatable tyrannosaurus costumes protector holding a “TYRANNY SAIRUS WRECKS” sign with a picture of a tyrannosaurus wearing a Trump haircut picture in it.

Updated my sign, because a lot of my cis het white cohort still doesn’t understand “neighbor”.

Mr Rogers and Jesus didn’t stutter.
Pink poster board with black letters saying “HANDS OFF MY NEIGHBOR”. This is its fourth time out on the streets of small Wyoming towns. I’ve add a progress flag, BLM fist, hands holding cell bars, Mexican flag, central and South America map, elderly, disability, poor representation pictures- because I want safety, dignity, equity, equality, freedom and SAFETY for ALL.

In a place where 79% of the voters voted for him 3 times, 100 people willing to join their first protest, and stand at the main intersection is petty dang impressive. I drove 33miles(53ish km) to join my neighbors. Don’t be disheartened if it looks sparse, it’s MASSIVE!

So, it might be hard to achieve the feeling of density but that’s really discounting the enormity of the distances. At the last protest here, there were 98 people. This was THE FIRST PROTEST anyone there remembered happening.

I live in Wyoming. This state is larger in land area than the whole UK. Witha total population less than 600,000 people. Tomorrow there are at least 14 scheduled protests. I’m going to one in a county roughly half the size of Northern Ireland with 7,000 people living in it.
A group of protestors in a park in Worland Wyoming, there were almost 100 people here in a very small town in a very big state with very few people. There are as many protestors here as there would be people at a high school football game. It might not look like much, but it was huge for here!

Why?

BECAUSE HE WAS GAY!

It’s awful that this happened because Matthew Shepard was gay, but it’s significantly more shameful to act like that wasn’t a factor in what happened!

Why him from the bar? Why lynch a robbery victim? They didn’t murder him. That’s the thing, they beat him, humiliated him and then left him strung in a fence with no regard that he was still alive. Name another robbery victim this happened to-none?

You’re clinging to a preposterous stance-have you tried to examine the reason you need to? If we apply any intersectional framework that includes Mathew Shepard’s sexuality it makes all the parts of the crime make sense, and discounting that is unreasonable.

There is no moral time to wake up. Early birds (me) get morality credit for something that’s easy for us and condemn those who struggle.

It’s unethical to make morally neutral differences into a moral hierarchy because it perpetuates immoral hierarchies like white supremacist patriarchy!

As a student at UW at the time, I learned then that deflection and denial was the preferred mechanism. The amount of “it wasn’t because he was gay-it was a drug deal gone wrong” was sickening-I didn’t understand at the time those same people were preparing to kill everyone they didn’t like.
