Four of us hardy patriots at the #TeslaTakedown in Devon PA this morning. Given conditions (13 F 25-50 mph N wind) we kept it to half an hour. I could've stayed longer, my gear is good, but the organizers didn't want anyone there alone. Probably wise.
So, let's see what weather next week brings.

What I wrote to Fetterman and McCormick earlier this afternoon:
"Senator, how many legal observers, peacefully exercising their First Amendment rights, need to die in Minneapolis before I.C.E and B.C.P. are brought under control or pulled out of the twin cities altogether?"
@nberlat.bsky.social +1. The federals would simply arm up further. The observers do not have tanks, APCs, drones, helicopters, and on and on....
We had two different vehicles come zooming down the shoulder, inches from where we stood on the curb. Cowards really; feinting at us with vehicular homicide. Noting it here to say: be careful out there. They are working themselves up to violence.
Eighteen of us there at the #TeslaTakedown this morning, in Devon PA. Also 18 degrees F. Many of us told the same story: we looked at the forecast, thought about skipping it, but then, if people could do it in Minneapolis in -20, we could do it here at 18. So we came.
Gathering my warm clothing layers for this morning's #TeslaTakedown.

How accurate are crowd counts at large events?
Organisers are assumed to have a vested interest in inflating the figures, while the police are repeatedly accused of undercounting.
Technology has made the process of assessing crowd sizes easier, but large numbers cited by organisers are often overestimates.
