This Saturday (3/29) was a big day for Tesla Takedown events nation-wide and world-wide! They involved 12 countries and 300 protests, though more events might have happened and not been reported. It’s still very grassroots.
Sacramento once again had a bigger group — 300 total! And one very determined counter-protester, an older woman with a lot of neck tattoos. She was ranting like a lunatic, and tried to start a fight with another lady. I had an extra-large sign and stuck it between them to break things up. Then she stood on a small strip of concrete in the middle of the busy street, until a cop came up and made her move. I was hoping she would stay there, it looked dangerous.
Anyway, we got pretty good coverage from our local Fox 40 news station! They used the video from last week’s protest though, so our crowd looks smaller:

We also got decent coverage from KCRA 3, but they didn’t post the story online. And CBS 13 covered Tesla Takedown in general, but not locally.
And the nearby Rocklin Tesla Takedown apparently went well, with about 200 supporters and 70 MAGA counter-protesters. It’s a more conservative area, and the MAGA folks apparently showed up early to get the spot right in front of the dealership. But lots of people are laughing online and saying it looked like they were protesting against Tesla too! And they were playing the YMCA song, they’re so clueless. Here’s the SacBee article and video: www.sacbee.com/…
This time we decided this time to get a good “panoramic video” from the car, driving by all of the protesters. The video turned out GREAT, especially with the music. You really get a good feel for how many people were there, and the atmosphere. Make sure to turn on the volume for this one :

And finally — the pictures! Look at the first one, this guy has a face like a movie star! And now he’s local-famous because he was on the news.
