Also in Boston on Saturday afternoon, demonstrators joined other cities across the country for the No Kings protests.
The No Kings rally is a movement targeted at the Trump administration, and specifically President Donald Trump. Protesters said Trump is bypassing Congress with too many executive orders and is creating a government that is no longer by and for the people.
“I hope they can see that there are a number of us upset with how Trump is handling this country, and there is no normal anymore," said one protester.

I walked past there every day on my way to work, 1980-84. I cannot believe the crowd there. 
I could have gone with a friend from Boston but I just don't trust my 17 year old car on the highway anymore.
Last one I went in for was the woman's march.
Thanks for the heads up about the overhead shot! I will check it out. 
Ty for sharing, She!
... especially given the weather - mid-60s, overcast, and drizzly.
We had So Many Protesters at our No Kings on Kauai.
It's an Amazing feeling to be with so many Kindred Spirits in Real Life. 
It rained the last hour but nobody left. 💙💙💙
Mahalo! A Successful Day for Democracy All Across our Land. 
Raining and pretty cold for mid june. Pretty good turnout for a small town. One woman said that it was great to be around like minded people.
Lot's of thumbs up and honking in support and of course a few assholes flipping us off.
Glad you had a good turnout in Kauai, Cha.
Power to the people...right on! 
NOW AND ALWAYS
