www.worldcantwait.org :woohoo: Summary of the Detroit event listing:
"In the morning, we will fan out and take WCW banners to walkover bridges on all the freeways leading into downown Detroit."
"At 12:30 pm the main march will begin gathering at Gullen Mall in the center of Wayne State University."
"At 1:30pm we will begin a march downtown to the City County building for our rally at 4:30pm. On the march we will pass by several points such as schools, stores, etc, where we will have built for the day, and pick more people up, thus growing in numbers." "After the rally at the City County building, we will move a few blocks north to Grand Circus Park for a "World Can't Wait, Drive Out the Bush Regime" encampment. This is the same spot where "Camp Casey Detroit" was last year. The length of our encampment is to be determined, but we will be having music, poetry, and impromptu tours of symbols of the crimes committed by the Bush regime in Detroit."

Which has dropped the ball on this event (unsurprisingly). I had considered picking up said ball and organizing an event here, but despite it's rampant 'liberalism' this town is a little bubble in which people feel no pain, and therefore don't do anything other than sign MoveOn petitions and vote and think they are going to fix the world's problems :eyes:
Can you tell I am frustrated with the political energy (or lack thereof) in this town, LOL!?
So I figure I'll go to Detroit where people know how to represent :)
