How are the marches helping?

Are the marches helping anything?
Do they serve mainly as a community support outlet?

It's a pity they didn't march prior to the election.
I mean what's true now was also true then !
So it leaves them open to accusations from the right about how 'un-American' they're being,when their government is trying to sort out the country !

Using your first amendment rights to promote what you think is progress is pretty American to me. Many people genuinely didn't expect the election results to turn out the way they did and believe that hacking did play a role in it.

But considering the fact that people burned dummies on nooses when Obama got elected, I'd hesitate to say that today's protesters are most extreme in their behavior.

But it doesn't does it.
I mean nobody's questioning the result of the election.
But several folk tried to hijack what the march was all about today when you heard them speak at the podium.
They gave so many different political reasons for being there there wasn't a coherant thread between them.
