Hiiii lemmy! I’m TransfemGhostface. Hope y’all are having a good night. I was one of the people outside the courthouse during the trial, who corporate media referred to as ‘sick’ and ‘twisted’ for exercising our first amendment right to protest. Feel free to ask me anything!

What would you estimate:
More men or more women?
More old or more young?

How big was the crowd?

Was it a diverse crowd or was there a single dominant category of people, and if so, what was it?

What's the general mood?

Just want to say thank you, and that it’s official -You are on the side of good that’s fighting evil. Like in books and movies. A real hero who made a choice, and let’s hope a difference.

"...an act of terrorism,” which is legally defined as an intent to ~~intimidate or coerce~~ inspire and embolden the civilian population...

not a question I'm just praying they don't put our boy to death because it's really looking like that's the plan. Worst comes to worst I hope it would be a wakeup call to more people as to where we stand as 99%ers but I'm really hoping it doesn't come to that at all.

Isn't it a NY court? I don't think there's a death penalty there.

That’s terrible! I agree though, sometimes that’s the best we can hope for…

Were there any speakers and were they good? What was the atmosphere like?

[–] aramis87@fedia.io 38 points 19 hours ago (1 children)

About how many supporters were there? Were there any counter-protesters? What was the police presence like?

[–] TransfemGhostface@lemmy.nz 30 points 18 hours ago

No counter-protestors from what I could see. There was quite a lot of police there, but thankfully they didn’t bother us. Dunno how many there were tho…

Why don't you just go in there and free him yourselves? There's more of you than there are of them.

Was there any press covering the protest?

[–] TransfemGhostface@lemmy.nz 34 points 18 hours ago

There was! My dad came with me and they interview him.

How do you politically identify?

[–] lars@lemmy.sdf.org 9 points 15 hours ago

Actually and literally pro-life. Not pro-birth, though, because that’s none of my business. A for-profit insurance company cannot help but have blood on its hands.
