Well, that was… large!
Not really sure how large. I couldn’t see the other end of it. If you’re looking at video online, you probably have a better sense of the size than I do from being there in person. But damn, that was a lot of people. Probably because the temperature got up to a balmy -8°F.
I’d easily believe 20k–30k, but…I’m pulling numbers out of thin air there. Curious to see some good aerial video once I’ve warmed up a bit.
The tone was notable. Still plenty of witty signs: “Stay salty, melt ICE,” Noem’s head on Cruella de Ville’s body, that sort of thing. But lots of people just had “Fuck ICE.” Nobody was really laughing.
One sign said “ICE will melt in hell.” That kind of captures the mood.
