Visual Text
The signs seen are in a large crowd, and there are many signs that are illegible due to the size of the crowd. "America is better than this We've come too far" is written in blue marker, while "#NotMyPresident" is written in red. There is a heart and a circle on that sign, but it is unclear what they say. "7" and "GUNS" are written in red, while "KIDS TEENS ARE KILLED B" and "EVER DAY" are written in black. There is a fist drawn over "Resist" in red.
