Hundreds protest President Trump's immigration order at Lake Eola
At least 200 people gathered Saturday night at Lake Eola to protest President Donald Trump’s executive order that prevents immigrants from several Muslim-majority countries from entering the United States.
The crowd chanted sayings, including “This is what America looks like” and “love trumps hate” as they prepared to march around the lake. Many came with signs asking for a halt to the ban and a stop to hatred and racism.
Jeremiah Blanchard, 36, said his three children were the reason they came to protest.
His kids, who range in age from 5 to 10, made signs the Friday night, one reading "please don't break up our family."
