The following was taken from facebook this morning. It looks like the liberal douche bags are going to demonstrate in Lynchburg on Trumps visit.
Greens will lead the charge
As co-chairman of the Lynchburg Green Party, it saddens me that the local Democratic Party decided to abstain from protesting President Trump’s visit to Liberty University, electing instead to be “planting flowers, painting and picking up trash.”
Though the national Democratic Party has become nothing more than a servant to its corporate donors, we assumed that the local level would be supportive, not dissenters to actions of grassroots democracy. The association between LU and the Trump administration is seen by many people in this area as an affront to both true Christian values and democracy. It also outlines the truth behind Thomas Jefferson’s comments in a letter to Horatio Spofford in 1814 in which he stated “In every country and in every age the priest has been hostile to Liberty. He is always in alliance with the despot, abetting his abuses in return for protection to his own. It is error alone that needs the support of government. Truth can stand by itself.”
Our resistance on May 13 will not be against students or parents of LU graduates, but against the golden calf of greed and unregulated capitalism that Jerry Falwell Jr. alone has aligned with. It is in protest against a president who lacks any moral compass, against his disastrous policies and his attacks on minorities, the sick, the poor and democracy in general. We will not sit back and allow Lynchburg to be a safe place for Trump’s rhetoric and fascist leanings. We welcome all who wish to come out and join us and the Seven Hills Progressive Society on May 13 as we make certain the voice of resistance is never silenced.
