Are we here to discuss campaigns or what?
On May 26, 1998 another animal rights activist and I climbed the roof of a McDonald's on Virginia Beach Blvd in Virginia. Dressed as chickens and armed with a bullhorn and a banner that read "did somebody say McMurder?", we kept police, firefighters, and Mcworkers at bay, on the ground, for over an hour while we reported McDonald's crimes against animals and the environment. We got two local TV stations, one local newspaper, Associated Press, and CNN Headline News. I think it's safe to say that a dinner table or two talked about vegetarianism that night. We were charged with breach of peace and tresspass and released on $1000 bond; court date July 1.
Come on guys, let's replicate this demo!!!! And if anyone else has any campaign ideas to share, I'd love to hear them.
