Activism

Do any of you actually gather and plan rallies or hold meetings? Just curious as I'm sure no one is in my area anyways.

I don't but I would if there was anything worthwhile.  During college the only activism available was stopping the building of the "apartheid wall" or rallying to raise the income of illegal immigrant janitors at the University.

Once my liberal Jewish sociology of law professor gave out class credit for attending a "legalize the illegals" protest, so as you can see there was a whole range of options available.   :(

Unfortunately the place where I am moving to probably won't have any better prospects...   :(
"The Jews will eventually have to face up to what you're dealing with here.  The arabs will never love you for what good you've brought them.  They don't know how to really love.  But hate!  Oh, G-d, can they hate!  And they have a deep, deep, deep resentment because you have jolted them from their delusions of grandeur and shown them for what they are-a decadent, savage people controlled by a religion that has stripped them of all human ambition . . . except for the few cruel enough and arrogant enough to command them as one commands a mob of sheep.  You are dealing with a mad society and you'd better learn how to control it."

How about 'Beat the Snot Out of a Muslim' Day?

First of all, we should find a place to locate our offices..or somthing, later we'll spread to other places and each state have her JTFer who'll protest and will be active .
I hope that at least someone understood me  :-\
