Just a quick photo we took of the protest. Lots of support from local cars too, even when waiting in heavy traffic due to the protest! Only saw about 3 red hats. The Governor* declared a state of emergency for a completely peaceful protest. Lots of good citizens providing free water and picking up trash when the nearby trash cans had overflown. With my limited ability to count people in a large area I would guess 3k - 5k people. Also a picture of my protest sign which was a big hit!

Keep fighting everyone!

*Edit: It was the Missouri governor not the mayor of KC.

In a perfect world the board of directors would be forced to be out there cleaning up. But still nice to see that hopefully a corporation is held responsible. Good job Spain!

This is a huge disservice to special needs students. Being able to test in a smaller environment with less distractions is probably the only reason I made it through high school.

For a decade, the residents of 2201-05 Davidson Avenue in the Bronx have endured perpetual leaks, caving ceilings, cockroach infestations, rotting floors, and mysterious cracks in the walls, all while fighting their landlord for basic maintenance.

I’d take the city’s bullshit over this personally

Very good point, so we’re headed in the right direction

Correct me if I’m wrong but the problem lies in the fact that cameras can’t see through bodies, and usually there’s always a level of doubt about where the ball is regardless of quality of camera. We need a chip in the ball. This seems like nothing has really changed imo
