I was madly in love with James Spader when I was in high school - this is "The Family Tree" which I had to go look up - I only remembered Spader, but geez look at this cast...
Here's my mom, who became an attorney late in life and chose bankruptcy as a speciality because of all of the exploitation she saw when she was a single mom raising me.
Hatboro, PA came out! We're a town of about 8500 people, and there were at least 500 people out there yesterday - it was a day of hope, for sure.
This is Johnstown, PA - the organizer just said, she'd be out with a sign if anyone wanted to join, because no one else had set something up. I didn't know what to expect - there was over a hundred people there, and 2 counter-protesters who couldn't figure out what to do.
I planned to protest in Philly, but a family thing meant I was in Johnstown instead. Its a decently red part of the state so I wondered if people would show (they didn't have a rally - the invitation was just to come be on the sidewalk with signs). 100s of people showed. This is my favorite sign.
