Who's going and whats your stand? i am going with the intentions of peacefully protesting the bush administration. i will do the UFPJ march on sunday, from there i am undecided...probably make my way to central park great lawn. i don't think i'll do a sign this time, but i will have some type of percussion instument and a flute...and a green fishing hat/black pack. i wish everyone a safe and successful experience and use your head, think before you act!
Peace 7river! Have a wonderful protest! I wish I could go. Please let us know how your experience was when you return, and post some pictures for us if you have any!!
