Nice to see the BBC reporting on marches again

[Rjk]

Genuinely interested to know what non reported marches you are referring to.

can someone at least mention one march that hasn't been reported?

There was a big march outside the Glasgow BBC office in 2014 prior to the Scottish referendum. That wasn't reported in the BBC.

Lol

Why is that funny?

What the lady said, but I can tell what they did cover. I definitely saw coverage of the Remainers protesting in London, and about 6 people demonstrating outside the Russian Embassy with a pile of mannequins.

Lady? Even though I'm a woman I still don't know what rights I have lost because of Trump?

Why is that funny?

Well he says he is in favour of Women's rights but when some of them choose to exercise their right to protest, he makes a mockery of it simply because he doesn't like them speaking out against something he likes.

What's wrong with mocking the likes of the ridiculous Ashley Judd's rant on the tampon tax that had been in place for years during Obama's presidency, yet a few days in to Trump being President turns into a mad woman, same can be said of Madonna, same as can said of the many who applauded.

Just because we respect the rights of Freedom of Speech, doesn't mean that we are obliged to agree or accept everything that everyone says. Does it ?

If someone, irrespective of their gender says something ridiculous then they are open to mockery.

So do you agree that every person present at every march held across the world was a 'spotty faced, filthy, vegan virgin'? I ask because that comment is what you are arguing with me about.

Many different reasons to be there. The irony of closet trumpets is they drone on about 'the will of the people' but they appear to absolutely hate the thought of millions of people having their say.

I don't recall seeing that said in this thread, was it removed?

I don't recall reading anything about that demography. Please indicate where I missed that.

Secondly, what if some of them are spotty faced, filthy, vegan virgins. They have a right to be wrong as well as right. I'm a vegetarian and have been for over 30 years, I used to have acne as a teenager and I used to be a virgin. Never been one for being filthy though.

Maybe that's why my opinion may count less than yours !!

It is irrelevant whether they are right or wrong (whatever that means in this case). His intention was clearly to belittle anyone marching, their opinion matters as does yours and Mrs R's but only if you start to bloody pay attention.
