So, I'm firmly on team Little Kids Don't Belong At Protests. They can't consent to being there, they usually don't understand the issue at hand, and their safety could be at risk. If they are young enough to want a bouncy castle and not old enough to not be bored, then they shouldn't attend.

Now, I do like the suggestion of the poster who said if you want a bouncy castle, rent one yourself and make that a safe place to land (heh, heh) for the kids in your community while their parents are at the protest. I actually think that's a great idea and am now mulling over what kind of childcare options could be a part of mutual aid.
