I've always wanted to go to a protest, but I'm too worried that I won't be able to find a place to pee.

If you stick to the edges, you'll usually be able to get out without much issue

For larger protests, organizers will usually try to put things like porta-poty around too

Upvote and comment on this shit. -if you're outside the US, otherwise you should be out there instead of looking at videos of it.

I’m never setting foot in that country. But if they don’t get their shit together their military might become a serious problem.

If I was there, I would be Luigi’s cousin, and I wouldn’t have missed in July.

Other sources give crowd size estimates that match with this photo

In photos: "Hands Off!" protesters rally against Trump across the U.S (Axios - though not with any high up photos in NYC in particular)

"DC and NYC are well over 100,000 attendees, each."

The total attendance estimate far surpasses the 500,000 RSVPs organizers counted as of Friday night.

By the numbers: More than 1,100 rallies, visibility events and meetings were scheduled in all 50 states as of Wednesday.
