PiMP My Activism: activism role-playing seminar

[Mike Barskey]

All the votes are in. I'm sorry Brad, but it wasn't unanimous: we don't want you to participate. Maybe next time (if this event is popular enough for there to be a next time). Thanks for volunteering, though.

You make it sound like I need junk food. I don't! I can quit any time I want to. I just don't wanna.

It's easy to quit junk food, Mike. I've quit lots of times!

[Mike Barskey]

Only a few people have suggested dates, and they both liked Saturday, February 21. So let's make that the official date.

Is anyone else interested in participating - in practicing talking to cops and judges under stressful situations?

[Sam A. Robrin]

I'd started making notes for just this sort of a project, but had not the slightest idea how to organize it.  I'll be there, deadlines and transportation opportunities permitting.

[Ryan McGuire]

I'd love to participate. Any weekend is fine.

(Sorry I didn't see this post earlier)

Maybe Mike needed to pimp this thread some more 

[Mike Barskey]

Good news, Sam and Ryan.

And, Kat, you're almost certainly right. But I'm new to pimpin'. Anyone have suggestions to get the word out?

Mike have you considered a wardrobe change... worked wonders for Kramer.

it's too bad Mr. Jardis has a shiny piece of tin on his chest, from what I've heard of him he seems like a nice guy.  However, I didn't attend Porcfest because I was told that any 'liberty loving' police would arrest me if I smoked marijuana in front of them.   I could have gone to the Tent and got obliterated (I don't drink). . . but those doobies are just not allowed.

it's too bad, it would be nice to get an 'insiders' perspective into what thugs might do.  Unfortunately, it's not a chance I'd like to take to see first hand what a thug might do.  No offense intended of course.

Libertine here (using Barskey's log-in)

That is tooo funny, Tom!! I'm going to use that picture for his Salsacado label! Can you send me a high-res version of that? Only if it's not too much trouble.

Hey Libertine, Becky here (using Tom's log-in),

Unfortunately, he doesn't have a high resolution version of the "Liberty Pimp", he was limited by the source material.

Back on topic... sort of...

Anton you need to go about this stuff in the right order... invest 20 years of the good fight to change the laws, then you won't be kidnapped for enjoying a few moments of serenity. Of course maybe the powers that be will do just what they have been doing and lie, cheat and prevent the democratic process from achieving the results they do not want. And folks like Mr. Jardis will continue to do their job and be an enforcer for these same morally bankrupt monsters. Right now as we speak someone is being processed through the system for not harming anyone, including arguably themselves.
