Our tent is plenty big enough right now. Let those who want to be under it come on in! Let those who don't just get the hell out. Put signs all over the outside of the tent explaining exactly what those in the tent stand for and are willing to sacrifice to see come to pass. If someone reads the signs and doesn't feel like they agree with those in tent, feel free to find another tent, or build one themselves.
You never win by having to force or coerce people to join your team. Tell ‘em what the tent stands for and let them decide. If you have to coerce them into your tent you'll never have their full support. You are better off without them. Nothing’s worse than thinking you can depend on someone when the chips are down, only to find they aren't there when the feces hits the fan.
Agreed one hundred percent. The tent is the tent. No need to court La Raza, or NOW, or any other group. The tent is the tent.
