hey NYC Bush-haters!
So... In addition to protesting the RNC, I am on a mission to disturb all the Republicans coming to the city as much as possible, make them feel as uncomfortable and unwelcome as possible.

Here is one way to do this...
Everyone should walk down the street holding the hand of someone of the same sex. Just for fun. If you are feeling ballsy, pretend your pal is your lover. Just to annoy them. It makes me uncomfortable and livid that these people are invading our city, and I wanna make them as uncomfortable and livid as possible too.

this is, of course, not politically useful, but these people are delegates or hardcore 'publicans, youre not gonna change their mind, so why not piss them off for a laugh?

EDIT: for the record, this post was not really supposed to be about the Republican anti-gay agenda... that was just an example of something to do.
My point was... our govt has done everything in their power to contain and silence protesters by forcing us to gather on the small, and out-of-the-way West Side Highway. Democracy isnt about "Free-speech zones", its about TAKING IT TO THE STREETS.

You are incredibly immature.

First of all, the Republican delegates are just regular people from around the country. They don't get to choose where to come, so technically the only thing they've done to offend you is to have registered with a little R next to their name.

Second, have fun with your little immature games. Chances are you will bother more regular New Yorkers by playing your games on the valueable and crowded sidewalk space and won't bother a single Republican soul.

	the delegates are just 'regular people' who are fighting for things i find morally reprehensible, and yeah, i just wanna piss them off. immature, thats a-ok with me. when the politcal process is so goddamn broken, sometimes you need to do somethings just to express your anger. how will two people of the same sex annoy most regular NYers?

	You said it yourself, this isn't politically useful, why not take your energy and use it in a productive, useful way that'll actually do something for the cause YOU believe in? One that's not just "pissing off republicans for a laugh" (Reply to this) (Thread)

	abraxas_seeker 2004-08-12 09:08 am UTC (link)
	oh, i am. i definitely am. there is useful political/social action, and to do that you need to conduct yourself with perfect decorum. Im fine with that and I do that anyways. But Im mad and frustrated enough to want to have a little fun with them while they are here. (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)

	Democracy isnt about "Free-speech zones" but it is about time place and manner restrictions. and your point is moot anyway. We're a republic. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	but it is about time place and manner restrictions. umm, how about the boston tea party? was that about manner restrictions. no fucking way. democracy is messing and can be inconvenient. and your point is moot anyway. We're a republic. we are a DEMOCRATIC REPUBLIC. the two arent mutually exclusive. (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)
