Welcome! This is the place to be for organizing the demonstration against Scientology abuses in Chicago. Please use this thread for anything related to the event: planning, questions, shooting the breeze, whatever. Bring along: a cool head, weather-appropriate gear, comfortable footwear, and possibly a mask or disguise if you roll that way. Extra stuff like cameras or munchies are always welcome too. We have plenty of signs we can lend you, or you can feel free to bring your own. We also have fliers to hand out, although there isn't a ton of foot traffic in the area. Stuff to avoid: accidentally clogging the sidewalk, using amplified sound at louder than conversational volume, going on Scientology property (including the little walkways from the doorway exits). Other notes: Masks or other disguises are legal to wear if you wish. We'll have relevant legal docs on hand, and we're on good terms with the police. Be aware that you may be photographed and/or videoed by the cult at some point. Date and time to be determined. Make sure to read all the posts in the thread and check back for updates. Hope to see you there!
So yeah... at the time of writing this (Nov. 1st), this thread is mostly a placeholder for whatever we end up doing. I don't think we've decided yet on a date or anything, so be sure to check back regularly for any updates. The best I have at the moment is that we'll probably do something at some time.
Come on down to CW if you can.15-17th Love to see you here. There will be a small group out and about and should be fun. No street closures so far.
