Simple but POWERFUL activism idea

Primary tabs

  • View(active tab)
  • Devel

A simple but powerful suggestion to enhance the
impact of "occupy" and similar activism events.

I suggest that patriots, at every "occupy" event,
and other events where appropriate, ALL gather
into a military formation in public view, and
slowly and solemnly repeat this part of the military,
police and government official oath:

"I WILL SUPPORT AND DEFEND THE
CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STATES
OF AMERICA AGAINST ALL ENEMIES
FOREIGN AND DOMESTIC."

There is nothing uniquely "military" about that
part of the oath! Standing in formation is very
easy to do, and there will be at least one veteran
to assist in any gathering.

"Defend" doesn't have to mean violence, either.
There are plenty of peaceful ways to do that,
peacefully "occupying" being one.

By SLOWLY and carefully repeating that, OVER
AND OVER, bystanders will hear, and some are
very likely to join in!

Imagine how big a formation might grow if those
in the formation waved passers-by to come join it!
Can you imagine the impact on nearby government
or media office personnel if they kept hearing that
oath being repeated, in ever louder numbers?

May apply in other countries too - most constitu-
tions have excellent guiding principles which are
ignored by their regimes.

God speed!

Account Creation Policy Change

Rochester Indymedia is now requiring editor approval for account creation.

We came to this decision after we had repeated spam posted to our website that caused difficulty with the website's functioning.  We will still have open publishing and keep our site as nonrestrictive and accessible as possible.

If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact us.  As before, we will continue to be Rochester's grassroots news and education site.  Thank you for your continued support and remember, "Don't hate the media, be the media!"

Editorial Meeting Times / Locations

The Rochester Independent Media Center (R-IMC) is no longer meeting regularly.
We will set up meetings by necessity and appointment. Please contact us at rochesterindymedia@rocus.org.
Our home is still the Flying Squirrel Community Space at 285 Clarissa St. Occasionally, we hold meetings at RCTV located at 21 Gorham Street.
