Monday Night in Annapolis we will engage in a formal picket line--single file, and on the move in a big circuitous route that will take us along the long sidewalk in front of the House Office building, down to the crosswalks, then over to the Senate Office side and down their long sidewalk to a crossover, and back again.
It will be one big loop there in Politician Canyon, with some of our Patriot Picket veterans on station to manage the balance in the crosswalks between the vehicles and our folks, unless the Chief has allocated officers to do this work.
We are going to make a statement, but make it entirely in keeping with the respect for everyone's UNIMPEDED access to the public thoroughfare.
For the time being, remember that you will report to the long sidewalk in front of the House Office building, while paying attention that you NOT gather in conversation groups that would impede anyone else. First folks to arrive can start the line on the House Building sidewalk 100 feet back from the intersection. DO NOT APPROACH THE GATHERING IN THE MALL (Lawyer's Mall) IN FRONT OF THE STATEHOUSE...THAT IS ANOTHER GROUP!
Basically we will stage this 1st Amendment picket with a single file line that could go back to the Rowe Blvd Bridge before we start, but that is how we will maintain an orderly demonstration that appropriately shares the sidewalk. Get in line and we will distribute our printed signs when you are in line. And God bless if you are making your own and bringing them.
Remember, MDS Brothers & Sisters: A significant number of attendees will be responding to our invitations issued during radio & TV interviews. They will not see the route maps and drawings that you will see here in the next 24 hours, so I am encouraging you to reach out to anyone you see in Annapolis that doesn't know how the picket will be organized so that you can introduce yourself and give them the heads up on how we will proceed. In other words, take our newbies under our wings!
We will definitely be making new friends with each step. We will especially be proud of folks who are bringing their young ones so they can experience the Bill of Rights in person!
Look for our route drawings to be posted up soon.
