Prop 8 Protest Information Thread - Page 4

The info on upcoming protests is pretty well known. The OC register mentioned the Saddleback one in an article already. Do not be surprised to see counter-demonstrators.

Incidentally, here are their service times (from their website): Sunday 9:00*, 11:15 a.m., 4:30, 6:30, & 8:30** p.m.

In case, you know, you wanna be there when they'll see you

So very awesome!
I love the signs LoTters!

I'm making one for tonight. Got to think of something good.

You guys are awesome!

Great signs.

My poor aching feet.....

It was fun. A little scary at the end, with the police and their riot gear and the people sitting in the middle of the street. But all went well.

The scheduled start time is 10AM, which seems perfect as it should be just before the 9:00 service lets out, so we'll get them going, and then the 11:15 crowd will be arriving.

Dunno if I was the only one, but I spent some time yesterday afternoon emailing every local news outlet I could think of with info on Saddleback to be sure the word got out. Yay!

Wish we could have been in Costa Mesa. We were all ready to go when we realized that in the excitement of actually finding stuff in OC we, Prudence's game night had slipped our minds (and I'm glad we remembered that because it was a fabulous night and a welcome respite from confronting the H8). Just means we'll have even more pent up for them Saddlebackians tomorrow.

Looks like we got the attention of the LA Times, CBS2 News, ABC7, and CNN.

Information on protest signs:

Poles for signs can not be made out of hard metal, hard plastic, cable etc. If it is made out of wood, it needs to be 1/4" thick and not to exceed 2" in width anything larger than that is not allowed.

At least in Beverley Hills.

I was glad I went last night (even if it caused me to miss Game Night

). It was a very uplifting event. We walked the entire 3 miles plus another mile from J&B's house (this done at my fast pace - sorry guys). I wish I could go to the Silverlake event today, but I've got work coming out my ass. Not fun.
