I'll give you a hint.

Protesting (whether peaceful or armed) won't solve anything. Having a talk with government is actually better.

Not a march.
Not militant.

A rally, with music and speeches
Marches are too hard to get permits for.

One of two dates.
July 4th, or Memorial day. (per Ron Paul).
Plenty of time to plan your trip.

I'm going anyway, my family is out there. 2 birds, one stone.

The thing I find hilarious about this WHOLE election this year is the fact that Ron Paul is the only one that is freaking out about this new pre-emptive war policy we've created. When he did mention it in a debate all the other guys looked at him like he was crazy.

How could things have changed so fast.

I mean... lets sum this up.

Everyone with a sound mind knows Iraq was BS!

But the media and all the candidates democrat and republican just totally ignore that.

The truth is they are all bought and paid for by someone, all of them!

They're all on the same agenda... and thats to keep this war going.

Forget it.

I think it's a great idea. The more people the better. There are plenty of folks that haven't heard Ron Paul's message. The more attention the better. I think most of the new "revolutionaries" do their work on the internet, which is why there is such a limited reaction out there in the real world. The protests against the Vietnam War did have an effect because they were out there in front of the White House driving Nixon crazy. It's time to take it to the streets. Maybe it will sway some voters and wake up sleeping zombies. Rubber bullets be damned, our country is going to hell, at least I'll be able to say I tried. Count me in.

Where is DBates?

A march on Washington will get the media attention Ron Paul has deserved ALL ALONG.

And if you need a cause or title, how 'bout "The March for Constitutional Government '08?"

A vote for Dr. Ron Paul is a vote for the foundations of this nation. Just as his voting record in Congress PROVES, when he votes against something, earning him the "nickname" Dr. No, it is actually a vote FOR THE CONSTITUTION.

He's the only one running who really understands the economy, and I agree with him strongly that we should let the rest of the globe deal with things without our intervention. He will bring the troops home. And he will restore the Constitution.

The Constitution (actually the Preamble) is that document that says "We the People..." That means ALL citizens.

By allowing the dismantling of the Constitution (however slight at this point), we throw away the sacrifices of anyone who fought under the guise of defending freedom. That means all those who fought for and died for our independence.

See you at the March!

Lifestudent and Cole... you both make very good points. I think Ron Paul is correct when he says we are at a crossroads. Now is the time to stand up.

Cole makes a very good point. A peacefully armed march would certainly make a statement that takes us back as a nation to our birth. The will of the People vs that of an out of control Government.

Lifestudent also makes a point. Peaceful protest that is met with force exposes the lie and shows the government for what it truly is.

So which road will you choose?

I think lifestudent has it right. Not enough people have been awakened yet. Now is the time for a peaceful march on Washington, if we are met with force then so be it. It worked in 60's. Don't run, don't fight back, just simply sit down. If you are hit with sticks, sprayed, shot, whatever. So be it. Expose the lie. That will wake people up, that is where the first steps must be taken. God forbid, but if a time ever comes when the people must take up arms, it is the footage and stories of peaceful protest that was met with force that the history books will show lead to an armed conflict. It is the difference between a Defender and a Patriot vs being a "Terrorist" and an Aggressor. That is what a Patriot will do. He will risk being put on a "No Fly" list, a "Terrorist" watch list, having rubber bullets fired upon him, taking a ride on a taser gun, being gassed, being sprayed, being hosed down, being beaten with sticks, being arrested and charged. A Patriot will take it all BEFORE he takes up arms. This will wake up others, who then will continue the fight alongside of us. Expose the lies and lets make some history.

See some of you Washington!

Thought this was fairly interesting, i guess it could work if millions of people show up for this march. Kinda like V for Vendetta
