Join the California "Chalk Squad!"

Mods: I'm posting this here because time in short and the Lounge gets more eyeballs than Activism. Move this there if you absolutely must. Thanks.

Join The Chalk Squad in Venice Beach tomorrow night! On bicycles, armed with boxes of sidewalk chalk, we're going to give this part of the Westside a wakeup call. We're going to strategically cover as much sidewalk as we can using the 400+ pieces of sidewalk chalk we bought at the 99 Cent Store today.

If any of you were at the Code Pink Rally in front of Arnold's Santa Monica headquarters, you may have seen some of our work!

No Recall!

Stop Arnold!

Shame, Maria!

etc. BIG AND COLORFUL!

Gather your favorite pithy slogans and IM me to confirm that we are meeting in Venice Circle tomorrow night around 9pm. Bring bicycles!

Of course, if we're "geographically undesirable" you can visit your local 99 Cent Store and form your own "Chalk Squad."

Are ya with us, DUers the length and breadth of California?

I highly recommend it-- it's a BLAST! And legal FREE SPEECH! We did it right in front of the Santa Monica police! No Problem!

Sidewalks are not just for hopscotch anymore!

Who knows? We could make a difference!

Stop Arnold! No on the Recall! Yes on Bustamante! No on 54!

BTW, with this post I'm (gulp) in the dreaded "700 Club!" Helllllllllllllllllllllllp!

Please keep this kicked until Election Day

I love the image in the upper left of your collage: superbly Godwinian!

3. Does Godwin's Law apply to people who grew up there under that system? nt

[VeniceBeat]

4. Or to the People Who WILL Grow Up Under a Similar System?

5. I sent this along to a code pink group in No. California

6. Actually the west side of LA is showing remarkably little support for

arnie... so you may well be preaching to the choir.

How about going to downtown Los Angeles? or Hollywood?

Besides, those are closer to the local teevee studios who would be likely to get you on camera...

Universal Studios is another good location!

GOOD LUCK! GET THE WORD OUT!
