I wrote this announcement for www.chronwatch.com. It's my first time with this kind of thing, so I hope I did the job right! It's on the site today (10/22) and will be there all week, but not on the main page. Someone has already left an idiotic comment if you feel like taking a peek. Here's the announcement:

West Coast Patriots Rally - Saturday, Oct. 26

By Cinnamon Stillwell Tuesday, October 22, 2002

Come on down to the Civic Center this Saturday, October 26, for the West Coast Patriots Rally! On 10/26 there will be a huge anti-war protest in San Francisco. We plan on having our own rally to counter the peaceniks. Join us Freepers and help protest the protesters! Bring your flags, signs, and patriotism.

The peaceniks will be meeting at Justin Herman Plaza at 11 AM and then marching to the Civic Center for a rally at 1 PM. More information about their plans can be found at either of these two web sites: www.actionsf.org and www.sf.indymedia.org

We expect them to have a much larger crowd, so safety is an issue. The not-so-peaceful “peace” protesters can get violent. For this reason, we're not going to try and go up against their rally, but rather make our own statement and then move on with our signs.

Feel free to get the word out. If you have friends or family members that you think would be interested, bring them with you.

Let's show the people that the lefties aren't the only ones who speak for the Bay Area. Join the West Coast Patriots Rally and make your voice heard!

Here are the details:

Date: Saturday, October 26th, 2002

Time: Noon

Place: City Hall steps, facing the Civic Center Plaza, San Francisco

Transportation: There should be parking available at the Civic Center Parking Garage. You can also take BART to the Civic Center stop or MUNI to the Van Ness stop. There are also buses that run up and down Van Ness Avenue.

Lookin' good STL! : )

>>>OCTOBER 22 CHRONWATCH BUMP<<<

Bravo on the article!

Excelent job, STL! The more we get the word out to the media the better the chance for a good turnout.

BRAVO!!! Be safe, be loud, be strong, have a couple of people taking pictures...I have some medical issues to deal with, but if I can squeeze a couple of hours to hop on the train and make it up there, I will. I will make sure this is posted in some other locations. Make sure that someone or two bring megaphones...~$75 at radio shack for the big one.
