RNC Protest Sign
I haven't posted for over a month (just been lurking), so I thought I needed to throw something out.

I'm planning on going to NYC to protest the RNC in early September. If you were to go, what would be on your protest sign?

Things like "WMDs?" or "Got WMD?" will probably be popular. Then again, many strange things may occur in the next 8 months....

(Remember, it has to be short enough to be read quickly, and strong enough to leave an impression.)

1. I like either one but bear in mind that you probably wont get anywhere
CLOSE to where the Convention site will be. The "Free Speech Zone" will probably be Hoboken. Good luck, and whatever happens, wear a helmet.

14. How do you think
They'll be able to shut down midtown manhattan? Too many businesses, the Garden on top of a major transit hub. You cannot shut down NYC for a week.

16. I have classes almost every day on 26th st. off of 8th avenue
Just 8 little blocks from Madison Square Garden. NYC isn't like anyplace else. It was pretty wild when the Democrats where here in 91 it's gonna be a mad house this summer. Count on it.

5. to the point
LIAR!

It's the easiest to see on TV as well.

Whenever protests are shown on TV the camera is only going to be on signs for a fraction of a second. Some people write whole screeds that nobody is able to read. Liar says it all and is visible.

9. How I sneaked in a protest sign
When AWOL was in Alamogordo and tickets were only given to Repukes and RW churches, I got a ticket from my mother in law.
I wore a sweatshirt over my neon-lime-green T-shirt. On my lime green T=shirt, I had written "Not in Our Name"...I took off that shirt, keeping myself covered with the sweatshirt, and held it high over my head. Awol definitely saw it. I expected to be 'taken away', but wasn't.
One side of my current protest sign says, "Bush Lied. Thousands Died."
I am debating the other side..."Who pays for the lies?" is my current choice. We will be protesting each first-Saturday-of-the-month starting in Feb.
