CLICK ON IMAGE TO ENLARGE.Today I was out on Sherman Way by Topanga Canyon from 6:00 to 7:45 PM. It is kind of tricky finding the best spot. I have to be careful not distract cars from their driving so I primarily concentrate on them when they are stopped.
If one protests by an intersection, red lights enable drivers to take a moment and look. Once the light turns green for those drivers and they proceed through an intersection I move the signs to other cars that are not moving so as not to be a distraction to them as they go through the intersection.
If I only had one sign with me, I could just sort of walk the intersection via the crosswalks. However, the big sign "Chase, Keep Your Word", is so big that I cannot carry the "Daily-Protest.com" sign as well. In actuality, I think the Daily-Protest.com sign is probably more effective as it allows me a chance to educate people who may remember the link and check it later on.
After I was done protesting for the day, I walked into a nearby mall with my Daily-Protest.com sign. I was intrigued to see a couple of store owners unhappy to see me walk by their store with my Daily-Protest sign. I understand why they are upset, they pay for their spot, and I walk by trying to promote something else, for free. However, the irony is they are losing business as customers who can barely afford the 250% increase in monthly payments do it by cutting back on other types of purchases.
Oh yeah, I saw a rainbow!

The general public need to know what is actually going on "out there" in the monetary system - most people seem to have no idea, and I would expect that you would feel a sense of responsibility to educate the public about the true foundational causes of this "global financial crisis."
I wish to direct your attention to some very important information, which covers the true root causes of our socio-economic problems while offering a sane solution. What needs to be recognised is that equal rights mean absolutely nothing unless there is equal access to all things at all times to all people - anything less is deprivation, this is easy to understand.
Please take time, when you can, to read this Orientation Guide (http://www.thezeitgeistmovement.com/The%20Zeitgeist%20Movement.pdf) or alternatively view it in Video Format (http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=3932487043163636261).
They are both from a global social organisation called "The Zeitgeist Movement" which currently has over 250,000 members, and will have surpassed (according to our current growth rate) 1 million by 2010. On March 15th we held over 450 events, and this was the official beginning day for our movement, many of these events were hosted in Australia. The main event was in NYC, if you'd like to know about that event please see the New York Times review: http://www.nytimes.com/2009/03/17/nyregion/17zeitgeist.html
For additional information, please visit our website (http://thezeitgeistmovement.com) and view the viral internet documentary "Zeitgeist: Addendum" which covers these issues further, but in a more aesthetically pleasing style than the other video presentation. It is this documentary which has had millions of views and is responsible for educating growing numbers of people about these issues.
We look forward to having you join us. Protesting the banks will achieve nothing, they are inherently corrupt.
If a Bank takes an action that causes people to lose their homes, or causes them to have to work thousands of additional hours to pay down the illegally
charged debt, then protesting the banks to change that policy means something.
frankly I am offended that you would promote your cause while diminishing mine.
I am sometimes amazed at the number of people who seem to think there way is the only way. My protest is designed to thwart a banking movement that oppresses and destroys the best and most loyal banking customers and turns them into fearful worker bees forced to worry every second of the day about whether they can pay this month's trumped up banking fees and charges.
I just checked your age. You are a teenager so I do appreciate that you care enough to respond at all.
