LOL watch the coverage out there, there are all sorts of loons out there protesting about stuff they have no idea about (man who would've thought) These clowns look like they've smoked one too many joints or are on too many hits of acid! It sure is comical to listen to there warped views of this world and America ( There were many bashing America in there hate speeches). The great thing about this country is they don't force you to stay so i have to ask myself...if you hate it so much why dont you leave? I mean if i dont like the taste of something i dont keep eating it, right?

They need to be careful, here's a picture of another protest that went bad.

For access to some files from the RNC Welcoming Committe:

http://www.nornc.org/wp-content/uploads/

Some pictures, some posters, some maps...Nothing earth shattering, but mildly interesting.

Here's a link to a map with their recon:

Attend a seminar, class, march or protest.

I'm tempted to go to a couple of them, such as the copwatch, less lethal weapons, or maybe even the Magickal Activist Day!. After all, how often do you get to see a sacred bush!

Hi all,

Since I was the original OP I thought I would follow up. I never did get an invite from the official RNC but I did get an invite and did volunteer for the media party last Saturday. This was hosted by the twin cities for the RNC. I had fun and can now say I was able to participate in an historic election no matter who wins. I, of course, am hoping it's the Republicans.

I have never found it and I"ve searched with google, and on the SPD website. I'm tempted to call them up and ask.

Need to protect their eyes. I have watched the St Paul police actually do drill where they train horses. They were located in the Afton area.
