So far, have only found one event fewer than 10 miles from me. That's on the 20th and I invited the woman giving the pot luck. She accepted. Which is great because that event is also for organizers.

We're planning an event here in October. Both these events will surely help us get our event right. Like I said, it's been YEARS since I did any grassroots organizing.

No, the government doesn't give a shit about us. Notice it took corporations protesting the RFRA in Indiana to cause any change.

It is written down. I've read some of it. But, again, it's been YEARS so I couldn't tell you where

Yes, Happy Birthday Bernie!
