Greenbelters say “Hands Off!”

There was no need for Greenbelters to go all the way to downtown DC to join in the great international “Hands-Off” demonstration against – you name it. So a big thanks to the local organizers, whoever they were!

People gathered outside Greenbelt’s Municipal Building. Here are some of my favorite signs and sign-holders:






Below is a quick video of the group gathered there, then marching down Ridge Road to the Spellman overpass across theĀ  Baltimore-Washington Parkway, then chanting and showing their signs to drivers, many of whom honked in agreement. I counted about 350 participants in the march.
