Found this over on ARFCOM. The guys are setting this one up right now. They have SENDABRICK.com registered and are in the process of getting the website up and running.

Most of us have jobs and family commitments. We can't go out and fill the streets like the illegals and their communist enablers seem to be able to do.

This would be a heck of a lot more effective than fax's and letters. These can't be shredded and it is hard to ignore a few thousand bricks getting dumped into your In Box.

I'm in for 3. One for each member of my immediate family.

I've got Websense at work, and when I clicked the link, this is what I got:

Reason: The Websense category "Weapons" is filtered.

LOL

Great Idea bump

What about sending a gun lock or trigger lock to DC instead? They are much smaller and postage won't nearly be as much as a cinderblock, and they get the message across better too.

If they get 4,000,000 trigger locks, well you can do the math...

[vrwc0915]

You might want to post the alt urls for arfcom
I think one is jobrelatedsutff.com but not sure

[Jambe]

I like this Idea!

Hope Send-A-Brick would do the following:

1) Offer the ability to submit a brief statement to your Senator/CongressCritter in the form of a Letter.

2) Shrink wrap the letter to the inside of the brick, with the text showing outward.

3) Mail it.

This way, it legally becomes a letter that the Postal Service must deliver, and can't(or shouldn't) be tossed along the way by Liberal USPS employees.

Knowing how the USPS works, someone will probably steal the bricks to build his/her patio deck! Only in America!

Bump for later

You do know the mail doesn't reach the Capitol until after it's been screened, right?

"I'm in for 3. One for each member of my immediate family."

I'm in for $100...I think I would rather send ten bags of fecal matter but bricks will do.

[The Republic is Lost]

They would just direct the USPS and UPS to send the bricks to a different location. It would be a major inconvience for the little people and thousands of USPS employees would be off indefinitely with back injuries. The blocks we need to send away are on the shoulders of those already in DC.

Send a Brick to Congress

Which window?

[Paine in the Neck]

Send this with it...

U.S Constitution

Art. I, Sec. 8

"The Congress shall have the Power To...provide for calling forth the Militia to execute the Laws of the Union, suppress insurections and repel Invasions..."

Art. IV, Sec. 4

"The United States shall guarantee to every State in this Union a Republican Form of Government, and shall protect each of them against Invasion..."

Art. VI., par. 3

"The Senators and Representatives before mentioned, and the Members of the several State Legislatures, and all executive and judicial Officers, both of the United States and of the several States, shall be bound by Oath or Affirmation, to support this Constitution;..."

U. S. Senate Oath of Office

"I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter: So help me God."

U. S. House of Representatives Oath of Office

"I, ..., do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter. So help me God."

You want votes? You want money? Do your damned duty! Secure the borders and get the illegal aliens out.

I'm in for 3. One for each member of my immediate family.

Maybe we could all get together here at FR, buy a couple truckloads from Home Depot right there in DC and just have them delivered to the lawn out front.

[Boat Rocker]

The way to make this work is to hit the radio talk shows with the idea and the web address. I have a direct pipeline to several hosts in Alabama. They will jump all over this. It is the perfect metaphor for building the wall. It is a way for productive Americans to participate in a protest without having to leave their jobs. We need all Freepers to call this idea in repeatedly to every talk show in the Country. Eventually the Print and Television will follow. I'm in for 5 bricks, one for each member of my family.

Dear Congressman Neal:

Since I cannot be at your office, please throw the enclosed brick through your window for me. Thanks!

V/r,

pabianice

p.s. When you have time please let me tell you how the voters in my small, conservative town feel about being gerrymandered into your district with Northampton, MA, the self-proclaimed "militant lesbian capital of the United States".

Sounds like a good idea. When they send solicitations for campaign donations send them back a cash receipt for a box of ammunition. Let them know where their contributions are going, and why. Borders, Language, Culture!

[SquirrelKing]

We sent Lindsay Graham to the Senate - does that count?

[One_who_hopes_to_know]

Mexican president Vicente Fox
leads president Bush along
the path he uses to cross
the border.

[Liz]

Another good idea:

Send our reps Mexican flags with a note attached:
"Viva Mexico."

That should drive the message home------let's them know we know exactly whose side they are on.
