Wisdom_Seeker Posted May 1, 2007 Again, didn't Seattle already protest? What will protesting do by the way? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pacifist Posted May 1, 2007 Am not sure about that. We pay taxes and its time the US hear what we have to say. This does not necessarily mean that the rally is pointless. Rallies can accomplish a great deal: They can be used to get signatures on petitions, raise money, distribute information, demonstrate to the public(usually through media coverage) that we are against the mass killings of Somalis and that the genocide going on in Somalia need to stop right now, and it can also inspire individuals to increase their levels of activism. We can issue picketing for or against a particular candidate or politician are the most cost- effective and influential. With only a few dozen people, an event like this can garner adequate media coverage, and the point is clearly made. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
