There are currently 1,000 planned protests for May Day!

3. The local media never even mentioned it!

I do NOT watch the local news unless it is for the weather report or to see if they covered any of the protests. Same goes for national news. All of the MSM have an agenda and that agenda is to make more and more and more money for the rich and powerful. This includes both GOP and Dems. Corporate Dem donors are NOT on our side. Their bank accounts are the only thing of their concern and that will not change.

There were NO reports on the local news and there was only a 1 minute report on NBC National News tonight. Very discouraging but I am a realist and I do not expect much more than "talking the talk" instead of "walking the walk". This goes for DU as well. I didn't even open my DU site on my tablet until now...12:30 AM since I knew I would be discouraged.

Oh well, at least I have self respect and I DO walk the walk and I have since 1979 when I attended my first May Day Protest in Washington Sq. (NYC) and an anti-draft protest in Phila. and I had to literally walked the walk for 2 hours each way to the local train station to go to Phila alone since I was 17 and had no car or friends with cars to drive me to the station. I ended up on the local news though. I was one of about 20 protesters but they chose me to interview. For some reason I am interviewed by news stations at the rallies I attend. I guess I look very pissed off and serious. I AM VERY PISSED OFF AND SERIOUS!!! I didn't myself on the news that first time it but my so-called friends did and told me so. Ha! I follow my true course. I am proud of that.
