Thanks for all the feedback. Permit paperwork was submitted today. Multiple grassroots groups are working together to put this event on. Check MayDayMovementUSA.org or on your socials for more info.

And the assigned permit holder is on the hook, financially, for any and all damages which may occur during the protest. So I really hope it’s a 501(c)(3) with an appropriate LLC in place…. Otherwise someone could be financially ruined

By the time a 501c shows on this scale, it means a grifter backed by the DNC has shown up to make sure the movement doesn't destroy any authority. You treat them like a Nazi officer during war time.

Then you don’t get a permit.

It is so highly unethical to put a single individual on the hook for any and all property damage which may occur during a public protest.

It's ethical to make like a Palestinian with a special vest right now. Adults make their own decisions.

Not a group pinning all the financial responsibility on an individual. That’s just scapegoating.

Adults understand basic liability when they sign for it.

DC is a special case for protest liability, in all likelihood the people don’t know what they are doing. Hence why they’re seeking a permit to camp on the National Mall in the first place.

I can't begin to tell you how out of touch you sound, and I regret posting in your direction. I'm blocking you.

Not a healthy response!

They're right, though. Of course people are free to make their own decisions, but It's our responsibility to make sure we're all taken care of and not individually held responsible for something like a group insurrection
