What is the purpose of all these protests?

Are they meant to intimidate the electoral college into breaking the law and changing their vote? It's a done deal. ;)

I think they are protesting so they can avoid cleaning up their rooms as per mommy's request.

The electoral college wouldn't be breaking any laws. The "co;;ege" was put in place to keep any "unqualified persons" from being elected President. Need I say more??

The purpose of the protests, like ALL protests, is to protest. Things like abuse, unfairness, breaches of the Constitution, etc..

A few years ago, Dubya was drawing in "workers" by the thousands to do jobs American workers couldn't afford to do, (they had mortgages, kids in college, a hugely expensive medical insurance to pay that was going up, and projected to skyrocket). That was the reason for Obama Care (but the do nothing Congress made it fail.). Asante (sp?) Fox was here about monthly to see how many more he could send!

They were here for years, had families, picked up mortgages, paid taxes like REAL Americans, now some want to throw them out. Comonamyhouse, but GTFO!

The OTHER protests, the ones against Muslims, "blacks" and "Spics", those I can't explain. You'd have to ask the "deplorable ones".

Do they really think the protests will change anything or is it just a chance to get out school and get some exercise walking around while chatting with your friends ;)

I don't know how old you are, but, I was around, and old enough to know what was going on, in the 60's.

You KNOW what protests can do when you live through that. They changed the country! The Kennedy's, MLK, Johnson, Kent State. Sometimes the only way to get heard is to shake some trees, disturb the peace. I don't condone VIOLENT protests, but some are going to go that way, especially if they are stirred up by someone's hateful rhetoric, by someone going after peoples freedom. THAT happens all over the world. "Loose lips sink ships" ... usually after they blow them up! The Donald has lit the fuse with a hate match!

No, they don't want to "get out of school", they want to be able to continue their education.

When will you Progressives stop whining about the Electoral College. The Electoral College elected Obama to two terms and you where not whining then.

Obama didn't NEED the electoral College, he got OVER 50% of the popular vote BOTH times. The electoral College would likely be gone NOW, if they had bucked THAT result.

You want to deny the votes of people in all 50 states just because your candidate lost an election.

If the votes of people in all 50 states counted, HRC would have won. Only the states with the most electoral votes counted.

Can you blame anyone else for the failures of the Progressive Party. Where is your crying towel ?

Congress made Obiecare fail and when did that failure of Obiecare take place.

To vent peoples feelings so they don't start doing much more stupid things.

So are you going to insult them for that? Or try to screw the pot lid on the situation until it literally explodes down the road?

Why don't they just have a glass of wine like everybody else ;)

Progressives need to vent because Hillary was a loser ? You Progressives are sore losers just accept the fact.

The purpose is to express your concern and dissatisfaction.

How useful is that? ;)

1 point

Does it need to be useful? It should be a right in any democratic country to be able to express

What might you deem to be unfair about the election that took place

The fact that the majority of voters wanted Hillary, but the electoral college over ruled them.

They won't help anything. That's for sure. So why can't we all just get over it?
