Operation: Luau - Because we're going to roast that pig.
We are working with the Portland, Vancouver and Salem chapters of Protest Warriors. We have about 20 committed and 15 to 20 tentative, including some from Seattle, all over Oregon and California!
We have some recently retired National Guard that are rounding up some current members who hope to come.
We are contacting local media and hope to generate coverage so numbers are important!
We will have a few video cameras ourselves and digital cameras.
We are gathering more information on the exact situation, where we will be and such. Any new info will be posted here and I will those who show interest.
If you can, bring a sign or flag, also some are going to be wearing white shirt with messages to Moore.
I will be driving straight from work and should be there between 5:00pm and 6:00pm. Those who plan to attend may be able to work out a carpool and I may be able to drive 5 down in my '01 Chrysler Town & Country. For that to work I would want those folks to meet at one location so I do not have to drive all over Portland/Vancouver to pick people up.
This is a Monday night, so plan accordingly.
I really hope I am not the only FReeper to attend, lets make this a NW FReep to remember!

A non-bugging URL that I could send to all my right wing extremist cohorts would be useful.

Salvation can I get an Oregon ping to this? I am really looking for a good turnout.
Otherwise, I say Willamette and Porky Moore deserve each other.
