Re: People are going to be jailed in a detention center if they choose to protest

Heya Zoe!

No more convincing needed...I see enough of that stuff.

Yet it's the unorganized protestors that really get into trouble. The ones that can fall into the black hole of 'justice'.

That's why , whenever I am involved with a protest or march or ..., we always alert the media as to what we are doing and why. The media doesn't eat up quite as much as they used to,though, so there is more risk, yet they love a good story , and a good press release and a few calls to journalists 'selling' what we a doing works!
Make it news and most of the time it gets out. More than anything, it works as protection for us. The more media the better. Why , because there is sure to be at least one honest journalist out of the bunch, as well as cameras scare police and
the like.

We are having our annual United Nations Day of Peace Parade here and in Sept,it is basically a venue to vent all: Pro Peace, Pro freedom, Pro Civil rights,etc, anti war , anti Bush, anti Infringements. We pretty much double in size every year and have been working on getting it televised. Even buying the time! We plan it all year...not just weeks in advance.


Being extremely organized is so important. People just can't march or protest off the cuff. There has to be some stategy , leadership and structure.

All is not lost in this country until we let it be.

It seems worse than it really is , as far as our control or ability to make a difference. That's what the powers to be want...they want us to feel helpless.
They want us to see the picture as dismal and hopeless. The want us to feel satisfied by bitching and moaning about what's going on.

If all anyone does is read, watch and complain then all is lost. The corrupt powers to be can handle the complaints and expect them. They can handle the impulsive protestors. They can't handle huge numbers of unified 'active' people...
No way , no how.

Boycott supporters of the corrupt, boycott supporters of those that poison us.
Sanction those that try to run our lives. Do the best you can til it hurts.

In order to be free we have to be willing to bleed! Terrorists understand that
philosophy and see how far they've gone...Bush included though he's willing to
spill the blood of us!

I'm venting and know you to be of the utmost! Your realistic yet positive ways have
inspired me most often in a world scarred with unrealism and negative forces. Mahalos! Hope all is well. Voggy yet beautiful here...
