If Donald Trump wins the election, it will be a national tragedy and an internationally destabilizing force. After a tragedy, people may hold a candlelight vigil in honor of the dead. Let’s not wait for that. Whether we support Trump or Hillary Clinton, we all venerate the Constitution, including the free speech and right of public assembly that lets Joey Gibson of Vancouver organize a pro-Trump rally at 2 p.m. Sunday at Esther Short Park.
Speakers will talk about political correctness and its impact on free speech. Freedom of speech means that people who attend this rally should be heard. Let’s not shout them down. Let our presence show our belief that Trump is a defender of the U.S. of I. He’s no defender of the Constitution, which guarantees us freedom of speech, assembly, and equality. Bring placards and join me as silent witness to the rally.
