Protests planned against Trump's national emergency over the border wall

It's a bit miserable out there for a protest, but if I go early to the one at Union Square I can hit up the bookstore and also get some groceries. (Or is it more appropriate to do my shopping after?)

This is what I was going to say. If you just want to stop for a package of cough medicine or a box of tea, before would be reasonable; books+groceries are likely to be bulky as well as heavy.

Plus if the authorities (or counter protesters) turn it into a near riot, you don't want to have stuff that can get lost or damaged easily.

But if they don't then things get boring and you'll want something to read.
