Protests have swept the nation recently, especially at college campuses. So what has this man with a sign out in traffic in Shreveport? Here's what we know.

We came across this post on the Shreveport subreddit this morning and I'll admit, with everything else going on in the world, like the northern lights, graduations, and the like, this was the first I had seen about it. Apparently, I was alone. Check it out.

Wow! So far, 535 folks have 'voted' on the post and it's also garnered over 100 comments. That's a lot for the Shreveport subreddit. If you zoom in, you can tell that this man is anti Donald Trump. Of course, with our country being as divided as it is, the comments came quick. Here are some of our favorites. First of all, it appears that this gentleman is not from Shreveport, LA.

More than a few commenters thought the man was a hero.

Other locals remembered other folks who had used that very intersection to promote their views.

I'd rather not got into a fight with anyone about their politics, however, I will say that I think 'protesters' at intersections aren't a good idea. Just like I think kids on the side of the road trying to get you to come to their car wash isn't a good idea. Plus, in this day and age, I don't put it past someone to mow said 'protester' down if they don't agree with their position. What do you think? Did you see him? I'd love to hear your thoughts.
