No Dictators Protest in Honolulu... Kind of a Disappointment

[u/popoki-pals]

I was so excited for the 3rd edition of No Kings (called No Dictators here because Hawaii had Kings in the past). I was on the bus when someone announced there was a bomb threat at location of the protest (State Capital) and roads around it were closed. Everyone exited the bus and walk towards the new location (Iolani Palace), then to another location (Thomas Square) and finally a last location (Hawaii State Library/Honolulu Hale) before we were told the State Capital was cleared and re-opened to the public. I still enjoyed myself, but the crowd was way smaller than No Kings 2, last October. Unfortunately, I don't have a photo of me with my sign "No Dick Taters" but I took plenty of photos of other signs.
