the state is leading the resistance movement.perhaps that s not much of a surprise. this has been a very peaceful event from what we have seen. haven t heard of any arrest or unrest so we hope that continues throughout the rest of the day. julie: anita vogel reporting live from los angeles where these marches continue. kelly: those marches taking place in major cities on the east coast including new york city. as i mentioned earlier today. that s where we find leah gabriel standing by. reporter: the marchers passing right by our building on sixth avenue for the past couple hours. you can see the tremendous number of people have turned out. many of them wearing pink are those familiar pink hats. you can hear them chanting as they go by. some of which is to profane to repeat. but some is, stop the hate, make america great.
