Some silly questions, if you don't mind

I know I'll be freeper-bait immediately, but here goes:

1- Advice for a political event first-timer ? I'm going to Crawford.
2- Do shy newbies get taken in pretty fast ? I know one has to make their best attempts, of course.

Thank you (scurrying back into flame bunker)

8. The only protest I've ever done,

was a silly protest between a few of my friends and I in highschool where we walked around school with posterboards that said "Bush = Satan." We pissed some people off and got our signs taken away. Lol.

But if I were to go to a real protest, I would be honest and say "This is my first time protesting, what would you like me to do?"

If you are in it for the cause, the others will surely help you out.
