FINAL NOTES: Ok, Resistors! Tomorrow’s the day! Just some last notes: 1. PARKING! Publix may already have signs out to not park there. Even if they do, that lot is pretty large so you shouldn’t have any issues! WATER! We’ll have water and snacks on both sides of the intersection as well as someone who will be coming around with the coolers but also PLEASE BRING YOUR OWN: WATER UMBRELLA SUNSCREEN SIGNS/BANNERS AMERICAN FLAGS GUITARS/TAMBOURINES/DRUMS YOUR SPIRIT, VOICE & MOTIVATION! 2. SIGNAGE! Since our message is that of defending the constitution, we’d love to have signage reflecting that. Of course, you can bring whatever it is you already have AND/OR you can still MAKE YOUR OWN at our SIGN STATION!! Some suggestions for signage: COURT • CHECKS & BALANCES AREN’T DEAD YET • THE SUPREME COURT IS NOT SUPREME TO THE PEOPLE • COURTS SHOULD DEFEND RIGHTS — NOT KILL THEM CALL TO ACTION • PEACEFUL. LEGAL. UNIFIED. REMOVE TRUMP. • UNITED WE STAND — AGAINST TYRANNY • SILENCE = COMPLICITY • REPUBLICANS, DEMOCRATS, INDEPENDENTS: DEFEND DEMOCRACY VETERANS • WE SWORE AN OATH TO THE CONSTITUTION — NOT A PRESIDENT • TRUE PATRIOTS DEFEND DEMOCRACY, NOT DICTATORS • THIS FLAG STANDS FOR RIGHTS — DON’T LET THEM BURN IT • “Veteran. Patriot. Defender of Democracy.” • “Left, Right, Center — We All Bleed Red for the Constitution” • “All Americans Deserve the Rights I Fought to Protect” • “We Don’t Swear Loyalty to Politicians — We Swear It to the People” • “I Took an Oath to Defend the Constitution — Not a Man” • “Veteran for the Republic — Not for Tyranny” • “We Fought for Freedom Abroad, Now We Fight for It at Home” • “The Oath Has No Expiration Date” • “Honor the Constitution — That’s What I Served For” NON-VETERAN’S DEFEND THE CONSTITUTION • “You Can’t Celebrate Freedom While Silencing It” • “Patriotism Isn’t Obedience—It’s Resistance” • “If You Love America, Fight for the Constitution” • “Honor the Bill of Rights—Not Billionaires’ Wrongs” • DEFEND THE CONSTITUTION — NOT A MAN • NO ONE IS ABOVE THE LAW — NOT EVEN TRUMP • PATRIOTISM MEANS ACCOUNTABILITY • OUR RIGHTS AREN’T OPTIONAL • THE BILL OF RIGHTS IS NOT A SUGGESTION ANTI-FASCISM / WARNING SIGNS • “History Repeats When We Stay Silent” • “Democracy Dies with a Cheer Unless We Stop It” • “My Grandparents Fled Fascism—Now I’m Protesting It” • This Is What the Rise of Tyranny Looks Like” • “This Is How Fascism Starts — I’ve Seen It Before” • “I Didn’t Serve to Watch America Fall to a Strongman” • “I Fought Dictators, Not to Be Ruled by One” • “Patriotism Is Dissent When Liberty Is Threatened” • “I Know Propaganda When I See It UNIFYING MESSAGES • “Big Tent. Big Fight. One Constitution.” • “Red, Blue, and You—We All Lose Without Rights” • “Not Left vs Right. It’s Democracy vs Dictatorship” • “We Don’t Have to Agree on Everything—Just Liberty” Other than that, I know it’s hot but no one ever said defending democracy was going to be easy and if we don’t win this battle, the next one will be a hellova lot more uncomfortable so let’s get loud before we lose our voice! In solidarity, Larry @pascoresists [email protected] Pascoresists.org And all over social media @pascoresists Pasco Resists proudly joins 50501 for this NATIONAL rally and protest! And we’re also collecting school supplies for Pasco County Elementary School This will be our 1st ever PASCO COUNTY-WIDE EVENT! All the Pasco Democratic Clubs and numerous other Pasco County groups will be gathering together in UNIFIED RESISTANCE TO THIS MARCH TOWARDS AUTHORITARIANISM and FASCISM. If you believe that protecting and defending the United States Constitution, the Rule of Law, and American Democracy itself is vital to the continued existence of the United States, WE WANT YOU! And since supporting our community is just as important as getting loud before we lose our voices, we're also sponsoring a back-to-school drive for Pasco County schools.
