Police seem to be cooperating with demonstrators everywhere I've seen so far. Very different from Denver.

cops responsible for security are going to let them anywhere near the arrival and departure gates. This could get ugly if the protesters disrupt airport operations. I don't want to see anyone get hurt. The cops in Boston carry guns that look like UZIs or something.

I've been watching for several minutes. They have been switching feeds showing the enthusiastic crowds at several airports. As long as I have been watching there has been no commentary or commercial interruption. This is indeed a special event. Trump is looking like a jerk.

Ed: And a special thanks to all who turned out to do the right thing. This is what America is.

I'm so glad we still have caring Americans in this country willing to go out and protest.

The cheers shouts of "Welcome home" as a family (possibly Muslim) walked down the between the lines of protesters brought tears to my eyes!!!!!
