Operation Can You Hear Us Now----Nationwide
This location is shown only to members
DO NOT PARK ON AAS PROPERTY OR THEY TOW YOUR CAR....USE THE PAID LOT ACROSS THE STREET OR PARK IN A SPOT FARTHER AWAY AND WALK SO YOU WILL HAVE YOUR CAR!
After the inaccurate and nearly non-existent reporting that followed the 09.12.09 Taxpayers' March on Washington, the time has come to let the "mainstream media" know that we have had enough of their refusal to report the news accurately, fairly, and thoroughly.
Stations said there were "tens of thousands" in attendance of the 9-12 March.....and yes there are tens of thousands in 2 million but was that ACCURATE reporting? NO! It was a pathetic attempt to down play the outrage Americans are feeling for the power hungry pursuit to destroy "American Exceptionalism"....
Let's join together on October 17th with North Carolina, Georgia and California (more will be coming onboard as word spreads) and make sure our local media "CAN HEAR US"! Right now we are shooting for KXAN as they have done the most biased reporting nationwide as of late.....if we have enough people we can hit more stations! Stay tuned for any changes and check back....
May October 17th be a day we let the media never forget – a day when we marched to their front door and called them the "traitors" to the Republic they are. So much for "watchdogs" – they’re "lapdogs of the left." Their silence is their consent…
Well America, let’s see who’s "bark" is louder…

KXAN is great. I wish we could do AAS as well. Hopefully we will make such a fuss that at least one of these MSM comminforms won't be able to ignore us !!!

DC, an American FirstThe protest at Austin American Statesman was successful. I would say there were 50 to 60 people there. There were no arrests, no violence. The AAS did send out a reporter who interviewed and photographed many of us. He was very nice and asked us to comment on why we were protesting and specifically about AAS. We got many honks and thumbs up, with only an occasional passerby letting us know he thinks we are wrong. All in all, I think that the turnout was pretty good considering the beautiful weather and that it was UT/OU game day! I just want to thank all the folks who care so much about this country. All citizens should try to gain knowledge about our government and our history; it is our responsibility as free citizens. We must be informed and try to get out to a protest when possible to let the govt know that we are aware of their power grabs.

Marlo+1 guestGot to meet Heather live & in person, which was great! Wish there had been more people there, but we had a pretty good turnout for this town, I think. Overall, I would say a good time was had by all. We got many "beeps" from passing motorists, & only a few "hand gestures." (cough! cough!)

Bill Crowley+1 guestSTATESMAN REPORTER AND PHOTOGRAPHER SHOWED UP (FIRST TIME I'VE SEEN THEM AT AN EVENT.) I GUESS THAT IS AN ACCOMPLISHMENT. DON CRAWFORD'S TALK WAS GREAT; HE PROVIDED PRACTICAL SUGGESTIONS ABOUT HOW TO INTERACT WITH THE MEDIA. TOO BAD THE TEXAS-OKLAHOMA GAME OCCUPIED THE SAME TIME SLOT. WOULD HAVE BEEN BETTER WITH ABOUT 100 IN ATTENDANCE. MANY PASSERSBY IN CARS HONKED TO SHOW SOLIDARITY WITH OUR CAUSE.
