No problem with that here.
Since Reno is such a comparatively small protest, Its probably a better idea not to narrow our focus down too far. The direction is nice, but the major hurdle is trying to get people around here to see the bigger picture. I feel like, while fair game is a major part in what will bring this organization down, it's kind of a weak premise for an op/protest.

What brings people in isn't "look how mean they can get!!" its too easy to pin that on a small group of zealots.
What gets people, is Lisa McPherson, the human rights abuses, RPF, childrens RPF, disconnection, people getting financially destroyed ect...

In a lot of ways our community revolves around 2 things: Family & money. the battle here will be won on these fronts.

Tl;dr: Playing to community mentality > Fair game

Yeah, human rights are the crutch of nearly all Americans. Without those, people go into a fit.

Thus, we're on the right track. 8D

yeah, I know I get pissy when my human rights are violated...

Almost as pissy as when I pour a bowl of cereal, then open the fridge to find I'm out of milk.

Yeah. That bad...

Or worse, when you pour in the remaining milk, only to discover it only covers about 30% of your cereal.

When you go to make a peanut butter and jelly sandwich and you have ample peanut butter but just enough jelly left to piss you off at the cruel twist. That's what I call rage. Yes folks Bender is the new guy. I'm not the final boss, that's stephen colbert, but I am definitely a mini-boss that is REALLY difficult to beat. Capcom style. Overly difficult right at the beginning of the game.

Welcome Bender.

Hay guise. I was having a chat with Anonyfox and he suggested that we do the protest on Dianetics Day (May 9th). This sounded like a pretty good idea to me and I wanted to know what you all thought.

I'm free, but maybe make a new thread for that so it gets better visibility.

Maybe we can Permatroll the Basestar Friday-Saturday?
That might not be effective though. What days of the week are they open again?

Only thing is May 9th is a Friday.

Maybe a two part protest would amp things up a bit.

Shows we're chipping in to up the stakes a bit higher.

Or a robe, if you don't mind dying of heatstroke like I did. xD Thankfully, AnonReno had a PhoenixDown with her, and THX brought plenty of Potion.

During these days, I'll be within the first couple weeks of my new job, so I might not be able to request the time off, but I'll get off as early as I can. So unless I don't get the job, I'm probably going to be late, arriving in the early evening.

Anyone with conflicting schedules like mine, feel free to join me. ^_^

doing one on may 9th is not a good idea cuz its during the week and i can guarantee you will be -5 or so people because of scheduling conflicts

i say stick with the 10th...no school for anyone and not everyone has to work on weekends

i will be there +2

I should be there on both days. Crossed fingers.

I should be there at least for the 9th. Along with about 5 to 20 fellow anons I've found at the place I work.

Sorry I haven't been on the board, just got a crapton of stuff going on in my life. Let's just say that life can only become easy when you trudge through the most difficult shit first.

Holy shit. I thought the 3 or 4 targets of Proselytic Legion would be impressive.

I'm changing my name now.
