Press: Are you feeling in any way intimidated?

Protestor: Not at all. I'm going to keep doing it because my parents were refugees.
...
My mom... she's 68 yrs old... she looks at the news & she cries, "This isn't what I came here for. I came her for #freedom. I came here to be safe."
...
the exact same thing that happened in Romania. I can see it happening now in #America. This is how #fascism starts."

Protestor: "This is how a #dictatorship starts.

And all of these #Americans who've lived here their whole lives & had #democracy their whole lives, they don't realize that it's slowly being pulled away from them… and they're like, "Well, it's not that bad. I'm just too tired to deal with it. I'm too tired to fight."

And then eventually that's when you have a military state where their people are disappearing."

Protestor: "My sister when she was five, my mom was threatened that, 'Oh, it would be a shame if something happened to your beautiful daughter' if my mom didn't turn in my dad in to the Securitate, the [Romanian] secret police…

It's our civil duty to be out here and to be fighting this.

My dad fought for #freedom in #Romania, and I'll do it fucking here."
