#MuslimBan Protest at SFO: Day 2!

Details

Second verse, same as the first (https://www.meetup.com/TheResistance-SF/events/237270107/)! But a little bit louder and a little bit more AWESOME!

Yesterday, we won a battle. Some of the detainees were released! But not all. So, we return— to ensure ALL the detainees walk free! And we do it peacefully, with love and inclusion, San Francisco style! Cuz that's how we roll!

We will not allow for discrimination against people based solely on their religion or country of origin. This is racist. This is wrong. We will stand and protest! Because we ARE the change we want to see in the world. We are California, and hate is never a California value!

Bring:

  • Comfortable clothing (including a jacket-- it may be chilly!) and comfortable shoes

  • A FULLY CHARGED mobile phone with the Meetup app on it (If you have any questions, call at 917-974-1138 - DO NOT TEXT.)

  • Cough drops/throat drops; we expect to be doing a lot of LOUD talking/shouting— again! Warm up those vocal cords! :)

  • A bottle of water, and maybe some food (maybe even some food to share with your fellow protestors, if you can afford it!) Yesterday, we had a specific request for HEALTHY food (like carrots or bananas), so if some of you could bring that, it'd help!

  • A SIGN with an appropriate (but not vulgar!) slogan: We suggest "#NotInOurName", "#NeverAgain", "END the #MuslimBan", "STOP the #MuslimBan", or "I STAND WITH MUSLIM TRAVELERS".

  • A spare Android and/or iPhone cable, if you happen to have one. USB wall warts would be nice too, or small charged USB batteries/power banks/power bricks.

THANK YOU to TSA, DHS and the cops, who have been kind and respectful to us thus far! Let's keep the lovefest going. Ignore the ominous guys with riot gear; as long as we keep it peaceful (and we WILL!), they may end up serving us pizza again. (You didn't hear? The cops served us pizza yesterday!)

Remember: We don't want to cause problems. We protest in the spirit of love, peace, understanding, and inclusion. We're just exercising our Constitutional right to freedom of speech— and we're already having great results!

JUST IN CASE, write the number (415)285-1011 on your hand. This is the Lawyers' Guild hotline number for the Bay Area. If you're arrested (yesterday, I don't believe we had even a single protestor arrested), call them— they can help.

Day two. Let's make our beautiful city proud!
