Can we have a forum for coverage of local protests? |
|
Has this been asked for already?

2. No. I prefer a separate large forum. Shit isn't being covered AGAIN. |

4. State forums are not seen at a glance like a separate forum |
|
would be so we never get a clear picture.

3. I rec'd it and it came up "0"...does that mean someone |
|
unrec'd it first? I think it would be a great idea to have a forum where we could sort of catalog how many people are working their ass off for a better country. To watch the media would be to assume that only teabags can protest.

7. I've used the state forum for Tennessee......... |

Edited on Sun Apr-17-11 12:49 PM by socialist_n_TN
AND the GD forum. The state forums don't seem to be frequented a lot. At least, not Tennessee's forum.
GD works OK for local events except for the fact that it's a BUSY forum and things get knocked down and off the front pretty quickly.
Here's one thing that we CAN do though. If you see a local event on the front page of GD, KEEP IT KICKED! Even if it's not in your area, help a brother/sister out and KEEP IT KICKED!
I would guess that IF things get heated this Summer and there turns out to be a bunch of stuff going on, maybe we could get a "local actions" forum then. I would guess that now there wouldn't be enough traffic to justify a separate forum.
Edited to add: You could also go to the "Ask the Administrators" page and see what happens there.

8. I don't know about "traffic to justify a separate form," but I would certainly like to see |
|
threads re what is being blacked out across the country.

9. Good idea - for now, crosspost in LBN, GD, and state forums? |
|

edit to add: unfortunately a lot of things I only read about after the 12-hour LBN limit.

11. Also as I said in my post........... |
|
Keep the local action posts kicked on GD, EVEN IF THE ACTION ISN'T IN YOUR AREA. We can help each other out in this.
