Re: Rally Xenuphon Los angeles Fishing where the fish are is most efficient. If you have no audience on Sunday you will be drowning worms. Since the intended recipients are a couple hundred feet up--maybe send them a messenger carrying mylar balloons or something like that?
Re: Rally Xenuphon Los angeles One way we can be effective nao is by getting the petition and collecting signatures on Friday and Saturday. If the faggots who want to go to Century City on a weekday go today, they should bring copies of this. I don't have a scanner. I'm willing to spend time collecting signatures on Saturday if someone will meet with me who can scan them and email them to Xenophon and other senators. It would be advisable to send the signatures to Aussie pols from SoCal HOURS BEFORE 8am on Monday in Canberra, i.e., before any rally at 2pm on Sunday. Any rally films/photos can be sent to them post raid, or perhaps even during the raid if you've got one of those fancy phones.
Re: Rally Xenuphon Los angeles Maybe Big Blue and the ginormous SCIENTOLOGY sign would be a better backdrop than the Aussie embassy out in Weekend Tumbleweed Land?
Re: Rally Xenuphon Los angeles RAID ON SATURDAY GET CIVILIAN ATTENTION BOMBARD THE MEDIA WITH CALLS AND EMAILS BEFOREHAND (AKA NOW) RALLY AT THE APPROPRIATE BUILDING, NOT BIG BLUE, FFS Jesus christ, it's like you're all newfags and it's your first day out of the basement. Handholding for the apathetic, etc.
Re: Rally Xenuphon Los angeles - Sunday 2pm Send Pix, Vids, and Dox to EVERY member of the Australian parliament to support Xenophon's effort!

Re: Rally Xenuphon Los angeles - Sunday 2pm Century City _is_ a ghost town on the weekends. BUT, why not do a walkthrough at the mall and hand out some flyers (in addition to being seen on Olympic, of cos). The mall is a block away and at least you'll get the foot traffic you're looking for.
Re: Rally Xenuphon Los angeles - Sunday 2pm Because it's more about getting the footage of us in front of the embassy to the australian news. lrn2read faggot
Re: Rally Xenuphon Los angeles Car traffic will ba almost all there is. It is an office-intense area, on a Sunday. Olympic Bd has good traffic flow though.
Re: Rally Xenuphon Los angeles - Sunday 2pm Is it possible the scinos would try to disrupt an Anonymous rally? With say, 'curtain tech', or 'postulating the disappearance of the embassy'?
Re: Rally Xenuphon Los angeles - Sunday 2pm The whole point of this is to cause attention at the embassy. The embassy. The embassy. The main focus isn't necessarily to hand out flyers to passersby (but please, bring them). It's about the media attention, which can reach much further than just a handful of people.
Re: Rally Xenuphon Los angeles - Sunday 2pm This ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Pix in front of the embassy as a show of support for Xenophon. Pix, Vids, Dox of the rally sent to every member of the Australian parliament. Hope to influence elected officials in other parts of the world. Nothing wrong with passing out flyers, but that's not the main goal here.
Re: Rally Xenuphon Los angeles Hey, that's a GREAT idea. You're blonde. Olivia Newton-John is blonde. I say we slap some skates on Xenubarb and have her belt out a raucous rendition of Xanadu on LRH Way. For the lulz.
Re: Rally Xenuphon Los angeles - Sunday 2pm The Australian Consulate is one office of many in a Century City building. There are no big letters showing the consulate to be in the building. What good is footage of an ordinary office building?
Re: Rally Xenuphon Los angeles - Sunday 2pm The footage is useful because it is REAL, it shows you actually showed up to support Senator Xenophon's efforts. Socal Anons should prepare a sign that indicates the address of the embassy. Put some gold paint or filigree on it if you like. But a simple sign that can be seen in the PIX, VIDS would be helpful. "Australian Embassy Street Address City, State, USA" Or make some signs that are like greeting cards, i.e. "Greetings From Australian Embassy -- Wish You Were Here" And of course, an embassy itself is a soveriegn territory of the country, so signs could also read: "Greetings From Australia -- In California" Get creative, soft Lulz, etc.
Re: Rally Xenuphon Los angeles - Sunday 2pm L.A is right on the Pacific rim so we have the latest time zone (disadvantage) compared to Canberra, OZ. The 2 pm protest time Sunday corresponds to 9 am Monday in OZ. Current local time in Australia – Australian Capital Territory – Canberra Other time zones will have some time advantage to get stuff to Xenophon.
Re: Rally Xenuphon Los angeles - Sunday 2pm The way I see it, there are 2 practicable things we can do on short notice to make our late time zone heard. 1. Bring your camera phones & the Aussie senator's email address, and email pictures of the rally to Australia from the rally. Do it right as close to 2pm as you can - fuck, get there early. 2. I think it's advisable that SoCal collect signatures on the petition posted earlier ITT and get them scanned and emailed to Australia on Saturday. If they're emailed on Saturday, they'll be in inboxes Monday morning. If they're scanned and emailed post raid - it's too late. If you decide to use it, please remember to edit the petition's wording from "President" to "Prime Minister." I will probably try to collect sigs on Hollywood Blvd on Saturday, if someone who has a scanner will meet with me and get the petitions emailed to Australia by Saturday night - I'm lacking critical hardware. Let me know your interest in meeting and I'll post the times I'll be on Hollywood
Re: Rally Xenuphon Los angeles - Sunday 2pm I'm broke for the foreseeable future due to tuition hikes...
Re: Rally Xenuphon Los angeles - Sunday 2pm Anyone contacting Xenophone should suggest he mentions Snow White. These two words are enough to damn scientology in a political context utterly.
Re: Rally Xenuphon Los angeles - Sunday 2pm Anyone in need of my scanner, pm me. I'll be around Hollywood today and I can get them scanned and sent tonight.
Re: Rally Xenuphon Los angeles - Sunday 2pm I wanted to, but will be giving a friend a ride to LAX at 1pm....so I will be occupied. Have as much fun as possible to anyone going, and please upload pics and vids ASAP to whomever in Australia you plan to send them to.
Re: Rally Xenuphon Los angeles - Sunday 2pm i'll go. hopefully my friend will let me borrow a camera. if i don't get a camera, and i'm the only one who shows up, it will be an utter waste of my time. someone who has an internet-enabled cameraphone should come, and bring xenophon's email address, so you can email pix to him as soon as you take them.
Re: Rally Xenuphon Los angeles - Sunday 2pm DO NOT EDIT THE PETITION, ONCE AGAIN IT IS CORRECTLY WORDED, IT IS TO THE PRESIDENT OF THE SENATE, THE PRIME MINISTER DOES NOT SIT IN THE SENATE. BELIEVE ME IT IS CORRECT IT IS TO THE PRESIDENT AND MEMBERS OF THE SENATE. IF IT IS ADDRESSED TO THE PM IT MAY NOT BE ACCEPTED BY THE SENATE BECAUSE THEY CLEARLY SAY IN THEIR GUIDELINES IT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED TO THE PRESIDENT AND MEMBERS OF THE SENATE
Re: Rally Xenuphon Los angeles - Sunday 2pm I don't see my self going, can't get anyone to join me and might be up to something around that time
Re: Rally Xenuphon Los angeles - Sunday 2pm Ill be there with camera in hand, may be there just around 2pm due to drive time.
Re: Rally Xenuphon Los angeles - Sunday 2pm [strike] I will try to be there ~ 2:00. will try hard. :\ (I will be busy with other stuff) [/strike] there is no try. there is only do, or gtfo there + camera. ( probly not staying too long after 2:00, so be prompt! If I'm late, :S )
Re: Rally Xenuphon Los angeles - Sunday 2pm bump - ill be there too, camera in hand. this neednt be a long raid, so just show up at 2 and show support.
Re: Rally Xenuphon Los angeles - Sunday 2pm I'll be there. I'm leaving in a bit...since it's a long drive from the OC.
Re: Rally Xenuphon Los angeles - Sunday 2pm my phone took a crap on me trying to re-sync it so i have internets out there to send pictures. with no phone i can't go, lets all hope apple can fix it in time.
Re: Rally Xenuphon Los angeles - Sunday 2pm iPhone is up and running will be leaving shortly. Hopefully can see some of ya out there.
Re: Rally Xenuphon Los angeles - Sunday 2pm You do realize that SoCal Anons are notoriously late. When a raid starts at 2 it means show up at 3. I would be there right now, but sadly last minute plans changed.
