Sam Comstock: World is watching those who are protesting Trump’s victory

One can’t demand or ask for a redo after a legal presidential race has been tallied. If you didn’t vote, shame on you. That being said, thousands of people with signs showing their dissatisfaction with the outcome. Filled streets in cities across the U.S. showing the world their true character and being recorded by the media; some of the coverage can be found on the internet, which will never go away. These actions will not help on attaining or getting a promotion on any job, but remember everyone is judged by their actions or inactions. Granted this type of action is protected by the U.S. Constitution, but remember the world is watching us.

Sam Comstock, Modesto
