:To insure a peaceful march:
To my fellow Revolutionist,
I lay awake at night trying to figure what will be the right words to disarm American Soldiers, City Police and Private Hire Security that will threaten our freedom to organize peacefully.
I have come to the conclusion that we need to work in advance to inform the enforcers of the Police State of what our intentions truly are. Their commanders are or will be misled and misfed information against a peaceful group of Americans.
These armed individuals need to know in advance that they may or will be encountering friends and family. They will have to make the decision to either holster their weapons and enjoy freedom at its finest moment, or to potentially do irreversible harm to friends family and concerned citizens of America.
We to can alter the minds of the sheeple. We can inform them that we will be coming to their town. We will be there to support not only Dr. Ron Paul and his candidacy, but to also support our Constitutional Rights. We will be coming to eat at their restaurants, sleep in their hotels, buy their gas and enjoy their city. In short, we will be there to bolster their local economy and encourage freedom.
As we all know, the power of the people cannot be stopped. If we advertise in local newspapers, encourage radio DJ's to mention our intentions, and flat out just go talk to the local people and Mayors, they will be our inside voice to open the eyes to the enforcers.
I also think we need to make a travel route, stopping in small towns and contributing to their struggling economic hardships. Imagine a map of meet-up towns all leading to DC or St. Paul or wherever we will go next.
The enforcers are Moms, Dads, Aunts, Uncles, Brothers, Sisters, Sons and Daughters to, They Are as American as you and I. They live in small towns, big cities, suburbs and rural areas in every area of our country. Their children play with our children and their parents are friends of our parents. We just need to make them aware of our intentions and the consequences that lie ahead.
Sincerely,
Timothy Paul Moore
SILENCE
If we march in silence, I think that is very disarming. There is no peace like silence and no rebellion like yelling.
Oh one more thing.
I pray the administration doesn't use this event to test out there new sound weapon. Or maybe there new microwave toy. I will be there with my civil flag either way.
Freedom!
This is good thinking
You touched on something I think we should run with about the meetup towns. Lets put a plan together to have people campaign on there way there. Also lets establish routes from all parts of the country to D.C. so we will be seen by others as a force on the roads as well. Paint up your cars and ride with pride with the message of liberty and bring the reality of the revolution to all.
Freedom!
We Will Police Ourselves
If people do not behave and show the good side of our relovution then they have no place. We have to be the one who manipulate the system to get on the inside.
I dont care if Dr. Paul came out and said he is running on McCains platform. As long as when he got the office he did a 360. We will not win always fighting the system. We need to be a part of it then change it from within.
I think my post is going in the wrong direction
As insightful as the black bloc and provacateur post were, and the Constitution warding off police post is humorous. It was my hopes to generate enthusiam of the local meet-up groups to organize awareness of any march coming to or through their town.
Post flyers in resturant and store windows. Let them know we are using our stimulous checks directly for food, gas and boarding on our way to promote freedom.
Let them know we will not be wasting our money on retail goods where the profits will be exported.
When we leave a town, they will know our cause and support it.

The other 95-percent was meant as something to seriously consider. I understand your passion, I wasn't poking fun at those things you suggested. We should plan and we should do this 'grand' march suggested by our hero RON PAUL in such fashion that everyone attending and everyone watching and listening will be proud (deep down inside kind of proud) that we came and assembled in numbers otherwise unmatched and marched in the name of freedom. That's me being 100-percent serious saying that.
Here's a clip from a wonderful old movie (Grapes Of Wrath) with a speech that everyone needs to watch and perhaps it too will help kindle some of that spirit (and true concern) I believe you were asking from each of us: No joke intended, okay.

I Have An Idea -- To Help Ensure A Peaceful March
Vote RON PAUL 2008
______________
Each person marching for freedom in RON PAUL's grand march (where ever it is we all end up marching -- ??) should come 'armed' with a copy of the U.S. Constitution // holding the same in their hand as that arm is raised high over their head as we march down the streets (of again wherever it is); a pocket-sized edition usually available at your local book store -- or acquired perhaps by some other means.
Think of it as a cross held before the snake-eyes of the vampire in the movies (I know, I know, movies aren't real) but those that cannot withstand the sight of it must turn away from the cross in contrast for all it represents. Those armed with a copy of the U.S. Constitution and hold it 'on high' before them (for all to see) should feel armed with that same protection from the evil that lurks in shadows -- be it from a movie version vampire or an 'officer of the law' inclined to strike out with wooden stick or mace to break up our peaceful demonstration.
Perhaps (seeing that document, the same that we all hold dear -- police included) they'd be inclined to think twice // hell, they might even join the group -- who's to say?
Walking with that little booklet held before us should catch the attention of the media also, I would think. Especially if we each held one.
Pardon my rant if you would please. Just a wild thought as a result of the subject of this thread.

Also, be on the lookout for provacuteurs. Seattle turned ugly because the "black bloc" engaged the police. Most of us who have some knowledge of the activist scene believe the black bloc is a COINTELPRO style operation

Yeah, they tried it in Mentebello Quebec.
Undercover Montreal police were caught being agent provocateurs in Montebello Quebec. Finally, after footage practically proved they were undercover cops, the police admitted to planting them. Whoever plans to go to the march/rally should study up on these incidents and be on the lookout.

We should provide flyers to everyone at the March
and before the March regarding procedures for the worse. Information given could reveal a certain point (and common sense) that would dictate that we should stand down and avoid any situation that would be harmful in any way to ourselves or the campaign. Any threats of tear gas, microwave crowd control use, violent confrontations (either verbal or physical) would indicate that it's time to go back to the hotel and chill.
Agent provocatueurs should be asked to identify themselves, for their own safety, if they are police officers. If they are assaulting people, carrying rocks or bottles or trying to provoke a riot a citizens arrest is appropriate until uniformed police arrive and remove them. If a fight breaks out clear the area and let the police physically break it up. If they are wearing masks remove the masks, take their picture and release them.
I'm sure we can get plenty of information from the agency issuing permits to march as well as the local law enforcement. Though they probably don't want us there at all they'll figure this type of cooperation (not complacency) is second best and will ensure a peaceful demonstration.

Ooooops!
That didnt quite work out as planned. Funny as hell to see the obvious cops with their knee in their backs of the provacateurs.
Niki Raapana has excellent insight into the Seattle 'riots'
Her book is entitled 2020: Our Common Destiny wherein she addresses the core problem of Communitarianism. Find it in your library (inter-library loan?) or purchase from Niki herself online. http://nord.twu.net/acl/2020.html
Wiki Communitarianism: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Communitarianism
This is a basic idea that permeates every level of government with communist ideals. We have one hell of a fight ahead of us when these Communitarians are so slick with their nice sounding phrases and acronyms...they may sound nice, but they have a communist principle at their core. Please, please at least become familiar with the type of terminology used by these people so you will know when you are being mis-led.

We need to get confirmation on the march already.
