Inauguration Day Tactics

[GlassDraggon]

So far I havent decided on anything specifically. But I will be within reach of a megaphone and I'm a pretty good public speaker, so a speech may be in order.

CASTRO STYLE!!! :lol:

Well, it would really depend. Are you willing to use violence? Are you expecting violence? How many people do you expect? All kinds of stuff. We need more details.

[GlassDraggon]

I didn't mean just for myself, but for everyone. Personally I'm not willing to use violent tactics in Seattle but that doesn't mean other people can't or won't. When I think tactics I think of things like street performance, protest art, graffiti, possible destruction of property,
die-ins, organizational ideas, etc.

I wouldn't take a person serious if he says he wants to "create revolution" in the US. It's really silly.

Teen rebellion?

Well, its a start. People have seen those protests before and they won't really give them a second thought. I think we gotta be somewhat creative in order to make our point. I know that there are some actuals 'schools of civil disobedience' that teach creative ways of protest (like the guys who draped an anti-war banner over half a building in Manhattan recently).

I think having a big concert in the front of a major government building to promote ideas would bring alot of kids out and open them to new ideas, but you would also have to have something else at the same location in order to create the bang from the media. hmmmm...sitting on government steps and setting yourself on fire has sooooo been done. What now? And graffiti would definately be in the picture but violence no.

i cant stand megaphones at protests. really, really cant stand them. and there always seems to be a socialist with one. every good damned time

It's sure as hell beats listening to a capitalist or a mormon with one. I'm not a big fan of megaphones either though, I think they sound obnoxious but I seriously doubt there will be any better alternatives.
