Are some people literally trying to discredit this protest when Gay pride protest literally take up full cities where you can't drive downtown and people need to get to work. Moreover, Gay pride protest are in the morning and this protest was at night when the majority of Americans are off of work.
Yall go find some chill and stop being hypocrites for when it suits you.
These protests were peaceful and only involved one highway bridge. So, the complaints here about how disruptive this protest is may be a bit of a reach. As I implied yesterday, the protest was probably no more disruptive than managing an accident.

"Memphis set an example for the world of who we are and how we stand in times like these," Mayor Strickland said. "I have the absolute highest praise for Michael Rallings. The highest praise for the Memphis Police Department, who put in many hours in a tough situation and kept the peace and resolution came in a calm manner."
