It's a trap!
SO WE WENT /o/
AND IT WAS COOL \o\
ALSO NOBODY CALLED ME WAY TO LET ANONYMOUS DOWN :(
Fox40 came out and took some photos and interviewed one of our dudes (he was wearing a white hood and he had some excellent public speaking skills). SO YEAH. WE'LL BE ON THE NEWS AT 10. AWESOME STUFF.
Photos here!
I actually like added comments to most of them so read those if you're curious as to what's going on.
BASICALLY here's what went down: we met up at the Hard Rock Cafe, a cop asked us to move down the street because we were unnerving some dudes, and then a cop later asked us to move across the street completely for the same reason. We waited until about 11 and then walked down to the building and stood across the street to protest.
Sometime around 12 half of us moved down to the capitol building to protest at the steps. Some kids ended up there on their field trip! GREAT TIME TO COME, KIDS =O WATCH YOUR RIGHTS IN ACTION!!
One of the interesting things was how absolutely willing people were to actually take and read our fliers. Usually they're just handed off and thrown away or crumpled up immediately but people sat there and read them, and almost always took one from you when you held it out. It was pretty cool.
ANYWAY we almost accidentally crashed a wedding at the capitol, ended up on THE WRONG SIDE and had to move around to the front (which was where we encountered the field trip kids), and after about an hour we moved back to the Scientology building to rejoin our brethren.
THIS IS WHERE I MET UP WITH SOME REALLY AWESOME DUDES WHO WERE ALSO IN PURPLE MASKS. Apparently they did not notice me. I had noticed them very much earlier on in the day. They were like "HEY PURPLE" and I was like "lol you gaiz are blind lrn2see" I MAY HAVE MADE SOME NEW FRIENDS THROUGH THIS HOWEVER AND THAT IS AWESOME
klibingly_jivl did not show up because he's a retard, dontbepanic was there but he got really bored really fast and kept trying to touch my hat. Bitch. =|
We left around 4:30ish. Energy was kinda waning.
Whenever people walked past the building we'd chant "Don't go in" or "It's a trap" and if they walked by the door we'd cheer, if they went in we'd boo. After one such booing I shouted, "LOST ANOTHER ONE TO DIANETICS!!" and sort of started a meme. That's going on my sign for next time.
One guy went in with this chick and came out a few minutes later and shouted, "I COULDN'T TAKE MY PERSONALITY TEST BECAUSE OF YOU" and flipped us off DOUBLE!! There were many lulz and much shouting of "SORRY FOR SAVING YOUR LIFE DUDE" and "IF YOU HATE YOUR MONEY YOU CAN GIVE IT TO US"
We started getting to a point where we just kept trying to get people to honk at us. Short-purple-bro was like "HONK IF YOU LIKE COOKIES" and just stood there begging people to honk for him. It was really funny. XD
ALSO THERE WAS A PIKACHU. SHE BROUGHT CAKE BUT WOULD NOT LET US EAT IT. :(
THAT'S ALL I CAN RECALL BUT I'M SURE THERE WAS MORE.
Also this was BASICALLY the best sign ever.
