Prop 8 Protest Information Thread

[Morrigoon]

I don't know who all here has joined OCEC group on Facebook, but I just got this message, and thought I'd share:

URGENT: We just learned that TOMORROW (Friday) at NOON, the Mormons are holding an urgent Prop 8 Press Conference in the main ballroom of the Doubletree Hotel in Santa Ana, at 201 E. Macarthur Blvd.

We MUST be there in front of the hotel to greet them peacefully and get our own press coverage.

The Doubletree Hotel is located 0.2 miles along Macarthur Blvd. NW of the 55 freeway, and 300 feet from S. Main St., nr. Imperial Promenade.

They are asking their "Yes" supporters to bring their "Yes on Prop 8" signs and want to have 250 people in attendance with signs of any kind.

We MUST have equivalent press coverage, so it is ESSENTIAL that we be in front of the hotel with our signs, representing the righteous.

Their pitch will most likely be their right to pass whatever laws they want as well as their First Amendment Rights.

They want all nationalities and faith groups represented (even the Tongan Mormans!)

They are upset over the display of intolerance they have been experiencing the past week and want the media to know that!!!

Note: I want to emphasize "PEACEFULLY greet." They are there to make themselves look like the victims and voice how they have experienced intolerance from all our protests. Let's not prove them right. Let's remind the media who the real victims of prop 8 are.

Hmm, if I had to venture a guess, I'd say they're holding this press conference because they know there's a little sump'n sump'n in the way of a NATIONAL PROTEST going on the next day.
