Re mass turn in of mothers to police if Cindy arrested

[lonestarnot]

Talked with Andrea, she is currently working on a press
release, will hopefully have it done by tonight.
Called the Crawford Peace House spoke with Hadi Jawad,
let him know what is being planned here for turning ourselves in to
Phx police dept. HE LOVED IT!!!!!!!! He was sooooo excited!!!

He took down all my info asked if he could submit this to all the
media contacts he's in touch with out there..I said absolutely thats
why Im calling, was hoping people from all over will come together
for this, especially so many who cannot make the trip to Crawford.
He gave me a number to reach Sam Hussain with Fairness and Accuracy
in Reporting to forward info. Sam asked that we send the press
release as soon as it's finished.

Hadi said that he would be in touch and thanked the Freewaybloggers
for their support.

Ok, so I'm ready and fully willing to go to jail!!!! I don't think it
will actually happen, but I am ready!!!

If anyone else in other states would PLEASE contact your local media,
if you are willing to turn yourself in as a show of support and
solidarity for what Cindy is demanding PLEASE let me know.
I will continue to forward news to Crawford Peace House.

Thank you so much!
Peace,
A Mother in Az.

1. What happened to my post?

[BigBearJohn]

2. This is such a FANTASTIC idea. Even Repukes have mothers.

Can you imagine the news channels talking about thousands
of mothers turning themselves in?
(((RECOMMENDED)))

[lonestarnot]

3. Yes they do!

[glitch]

[titoresque]

8. Yes please call Crawford Peace House

If you are willing to turn yourself in or get this organized in your local area please call Hadi Jawad at Crawford Peace House and let him know. 214-392-2939

They are very excited about this and getting info to Cindy.
But will help if others will call as plans form in your own area/state.

Thank you so much!

[lonestarnot]

9. Someone from AZ already did...I can't call until I get home.

And that may not be for a while as it is raining like a mutha outside!

[titoresque]

11. I am the one in Az who called :)

am asking for others to keep Crawford Peace House up-to-date
as this protest develops in their own area/state.

Will call you later.....I know you don't recognize my sign in name.

[lonestarnot]

10. Hi titoresque!!

Welcome to DU!! :toast:

[titoresque]

15. Thank you, I've been

lurking here for quite some time.....posts and threads change so fast.
Thought this was a VERY important one to be involved in.

Thanks for the warm welcome!

12. Welcome to DU

[Just Me]

13. That is a brilliant idea!!!

Truly, brilliant!!! :hug:

[dooner]

16. this needs larger organization, would Code Pink

take it up? I think this is a good idea. Mothers all across the country showing up at police station to turn themselves in. The police would not know WHAT to do. (I don't think they would actually arrest the mothers, so it's a fairly low risk PR "stunt".)

[titoresque]

17. We are talking to local code pink

some of whom also belong to Freewaybloggers
so will keep you posted as things develop. Have to go to open house at school, will check in later hopefully with more news to report. In the meantime, please pass this info along to all your contacts, groups you belong to, start making arrangment in your own state to join this effort!!!!!! Keep this news going!

Thank you again for all your support!

P.S.
have been getting calls from more mothers willing to join here in Phx......are ready to go to jail. I agree too, probably wont actually go to jail, BUT....I would be thrilled to go to jail for a night to show support for Cindy, would be the best green bologna sandwhich I ever had!!!!!!! And remember....we here are under the laws of Sheriff Joe Arpaoi...YIKES! LOL!

[Booster]

18. How about the Raging Grannies? I bet they would love to be

jailed.

[lonestarnot]

27. Am notifiying ragers tomorrow if they didn't hear T on radio today.

[Booster]

30. God, I love them ladies. I hope they go for it and with their help

maybe Cindy can bring this Bush cartel to their knees. Thanks for contacting them about this.

[lonestarnot]

38. Absolutely my pleasure!

[lonestarnot]

20. Yes going to bring it up to many groups! Home working on it as we speak!

[frictionlessO]

19. C'mon and nom! ya'all Crawford Peace House is excited about this!

It is time!

Also serving as a kick.

[AnnInLa]

21. kickin'

[mom cat]

22. And if they won't arrest us, we could go on a hunger strike in support!

I am ready to do that...for real...and my tomatoes are just now coming in so you know that this is serious.

[lonestarnot]

28. I can't go hungry for health reasons LOL

[mom cat]

41. Then maybe we can have sit-ins at federal buildings!

[lonestarnot]

23. kick!

[lonestarnot]

24. Where are all you damn Union Moms????

[lonestarnot]

25. Where are all you damn military Moms?

[lonestarnot]

26. kick

[cry baby]

29. I am sure willing to go in solidarity with Cindy, but

can I ask a question? If I go to my county police dept. to turn myself in, why do we think that they will take me seriously and arrest me? I haven't committed a crime and I'm not a threat to national security here where I live. I think they would send me away...

[lonestarnot]

31. Well for starters, you can't go by yourself... this must be an organized

group of people. One person would be scoffed at and led away for a rule 11 looney eval.

[loudsue]

32. Just call the local newspaper, ask a reporter to come, and then do it.

Let them know why you're turning yourself in.

:kick::kick::kick:

[lonestarnot]

33. woohoo that's good, but one person needs another, it must be a group

effort.

[titoresque]

34. The main point is not

to be arrested but to make a POWERFUL STATEMENT and show your solidarity as an American Patriot! I agree, they will probably send you away. And you're right......you're not a threat to national security, NEITHER IS CINDY! That is the point. All you have to do is make a commitment, call some friends, forward to all your contacts, other groups you belong to, make calls to local peace houses, peace chapters etc. AND CALL YOUR LOCAL MEDIA!! Let them know that you are among MANY Mothers all over the United States currently mobilizing to "turn yourself in"
We are PATRIOT MOTHERS, it's time to stand and act as such!!!
Also, VERY important, call Crawford Peace House let them know the state you live in and that you are organizing with other Patriot Mothers to participate in this "arrest in"

Thank you so much for all your support!

Patriot Mother,
Az.

[titoresque]

36. Never thought I

would actually look forward to going to jail! But I am sooooo ready for this, I think I will demand that they arrest me! Will be the best damn stint in the pokey I could ever have! Green bologna sandwiches here I come!

Kick :)

[lonestarnot]

37. OMG Sheriff Joe Tent City! Will probably rain every damn day! You know

he always has his vacancy sign lit up like a Christmas tree!

[titoresque]

39. kick on up

:)

[sunnystarr]

40. Kicking with an arresting leg ... (nt)

[IdaBriggs]

42. Kick! I'm not a mom, but I'll support you! nt

[txindy]

43. Kickety-kick!

:kick:

:yourock:

[donheld]

44. This is the start of what should have been happening

all along. We need mass protest, in every city.

[titoresque]

45. We were interviewed

today by the Az. Republic(an) also have received a call from a friends publicist and will be talking to him on the phone hopefully soon, tonight. I just want everyone to know that we, our group of mothers here in Az., are doing this for Cindy and for our country.....frankly I dont care if we have ANY media show up! I have already told everyone that I will go alone, as a personal protest. I feel this is something I have to do. It's my duty as a mother.Thankfully though we do have a large group and I suspect that it will keep growing as it has been for the past few day's. I did receive an email though today from a person whom I don't know very well but have seen at local actions. She said that she thought it was a great idea but that it was going to conflict with a couple other Hor's Devours functions planned over the weekend. That disgusts me! It's like saying "yeah I know the Boston Tea party is this weekend but theres this soup house that only serves their killer clam chowder on Sat. nights so I'm torn, I'm really torn." WTF?! Anyhow, I can't take people like that anymore...can't take it! I say stay home lady, we don't need your whining ass out there anyhow! Ok, I'm done ranting LOL!

So, just want you all to know that the reason for all the press, is to get the attention of all the other Patriots out there, to give a nudge, a BIG nudge and ask that you please join this effort.

Can you imagine what a powerful thing it would be for mothers all over the U.S. to take a stand and organize a sit in, or turn yourself into the police dept. Can you imagine? It scares me to death to think about what it will actually take for people to stand up and unite in taking back our country and to fight for the scraps that are left of what used to be our U.S. Constitution. It scares me. And I hope it will not be too late then.

[titoresque]

46. This is what we sent out
