I am disgusted (boy I’m using that word a LOT today!) and heartbroken to see this in the Orange County Register:
Laguna Beach police ramping up for rally, counter protest on Sunday
It’s supposed to be an “anti-immigration” rally, but I’m guessing that the Charlottesville atrocities will leak into this event. I’m sure the fascists think that they’ll find a receptive audience in Orange County, but in Laguna? Famously artsy, affluent but socially liberal, historically LGBTQ-friendly, “don’t piss on our property values” Laguna Beach?!?
I’m very much concerned about the safety of people in that lovely town. I don’t know if I’ll be able to counter-protest, but we’ll be watching for trouble and mobilizing as quickly as we can. This shit needs to STOP. NOW.
