Saturday October 18th: Second “NO KINGS” RALLY and LUNCH After!

This event is a combination Political Rally with Lunch after it. It is more critical than ever to be standing up to the Trump Administration and the Religious Far-Right behind it – implementing Project 2025. In the last 10 months of “his reign”, Trump and his cronies have actually been implementing this Project 2025 that you should have heard about by now. This NO KINGS rally is to protest the many unconstitutional, authoritarian moves Trump has been making since he got back in office.

I’ve been to 6 rallies so far & I actually had A LOT OF FUN at them! The Rally is set up by INDIVIDIBLE, “NO KINGS” & a host of other political groups who are opposing the Trump Administration, the “suck up” Republican Congress, and Project 2025. If this location is not close enough for you, just look on their websites & you’ll find the rally closest to you. I will be attending the rally in Gurnee.

Project 2025 is a blueprint for this country from the Religious FAR-RIGHT that is trying to turn our country into THEIR PARTICULAR THEOCRACY: “Christian Nationalism”. No more freedom of religion for you, soldier! This Project 2025 “new world order” of Christian Nationalism wants no one but WHITE people in it, with white men having power over everyone else & Trump as their KING.

It’s completely RACIST, SEXIST & ANTI-DEMOCRATIC and has been implemented continuously since Trump’s inauguration. We already HAD freedom of religion; no one should be forcing their version of ANY religion on us. And in doing all this, they are eroding all of the “Balance of Powers” that our constitution laid out for us!! Trying to consolidate power in the hands of ONE STUPID MAN: Donald Trump.

What they are doing is UNAMERICAN & deplorable.

SO WE ARE GOING TO SPEAK UP!! AGAIN!! There should be MILLIONS MORE people protesting this day, including people from other countries. MILLIONS MORE are expected than for the June 14th NO KINGS rally -- because people are seeing the destruction Trump’s people are waging. Trump is seriously a laughing stock in other countries. They know what A LYING IDIOT he is & they’ve been flabbergasted by so many ignorant Americans voting for him! SO HAVE I.

This Rally will be at Grand Avenue & Hunt Club Road in Gurnee, on all corners. You’ll see A LOT of people there, so you’ll know you’re in the right place. The rally will be from 10am to Noon. It’s a “honk & wave” event, meaning that cars who feel as we do drive by honking & waving in support. And we wave back! We’ve had LOTS of cars driving by in support at the 6 rallies I attended.

There is a lot of parking where the TGIF restaurant closed (on the SW corner) – and all around it. There is a Wendy’s very close on the SW corner, so I’m picking Wendy’s to meet at after the rally & grab some lunch. We can eat & talk about our experiences this day! We are not meeting AT the rally because there will be too many people to find each other, but we can convene at Wendy’s at 12:15 or 12:30pm AFTER the rally is over. (Note that the rally WILL be over by Noon-ish because Indivisible has a permit only for 10am to Noon. People then disperse.)

DO YOU NEED A SIGN?? You do not, but you can bring a sign if you want! I will have a large, bright green sign with lettering on both sides. The THEME of this rally is that we don’t have KINGS in this country, even tho Trump is being a total dictator. The revolutionary war was fought to get rid of a KING!! Kings are NOT constitutional!! So you can make a sign indicating “NO KINGS”…or not. You WILL see some really creative signs, tho! Guaranteed!

WILL THERE BE CONFRONTATION?? We do everything to AVOID any confrontation of any kind. Indivisible is a non-partisan organization; anyone can join. They get permits for EVERYTHING they do. ALL is cleared with the police & the cities where the rallies are held. They are FULLY AGAINST any violence, vandalism & any confrontation with any opposers. WE ARE FULLY PEACEFUL PROTESTORS!!

Some of us also know that Trump would just LOVE to unleash Marshall Law if anyone gives him a reason. But we are adults & we don’t engage in lawless behavior. We also TOTALLY DISCOURAGE any interactions with people opposing us. DO NOT ENGAGE or ESCALATE if there is any tension. And we WILL NOT break any laws.

SO COME JOIN US!! THERE IS NOTHING TO BE AFRAID OF as long as you are lawful. If you understand the general gist of my group, you will be around a lot of other people who are feeling like you are!! I find it greatly uplifting to be around other people who are sharing my concerns & getting up off their butts to do something about it!! YOU’LL EVEN HAVE FUN & you’ll be making HISTORY!! And then we’ll have Lunch!

RALLY is at: Southwest Corner of Grand Avenue & Hunt Club Road in Gurnee, IL
