Edited on Wed Jul-28-04 08:13 PM by tinanator

nothing a few thousand miles can stop me from doing. Hope we dont damage Kerry's chances by standing up against the terrorists.
-maybe we should cross paths sometime?

4. make sure someone has bail money

The cops in NY are not likely to be a agreeable as in Boston. There will also be many many more protesters.

5. If you go, please wear a suit and tie. Make it more difficult

for Fox News to portray you as hippies.

6. Not to belittle protesting

Edited on Wed Jul-28-04 08:36 PM by air napkin

Cause it's a wonderful thing, really. It is. No sarcasm.

But I personally don't think trying to protest the Rethuglican National Convention is worth getting the crap beat out of you by the NYPD.

But then, I'm not really the protesting type...er...*runs*

:evilgrin:

16. I wouldn't worry too much about NYPD

Don't forget they got boned bigtime by BushCo. Many of them are NOT too happy about him, or his playmates.
