Good, now you know how big the support is it's time to turn it into action. I don't mean violence, but turning up on a summer's day to go for a walk and hear some people speak is not enough.

I'm not going to tell you what to do next (it's not my country) but one day is easily ignored. I know from other fights around the world that these things need persistence and sacrifice.

But then, just one fascist extremist with a gun posing as a cop was able to distract from the efforts of 5 million protestors.
