RPF Projects - Who's interested?

[limequat]

There's been a few things this year that have moved me to donate cash to people that have been victimized by the state.
I'm a tightwad, this is new to me.
But it makes me think, as a group we could really inflict some pain and suffering on the state. Think of Shaneen Allen. She had broad support, but some of that was RPF sending donations and hassling the prosecutor. She was probably saved of 3-10 years of jail time by people like you and I sending $10 and phoning the dirty rats in NJ.

What are your top issues? Are there causes that you could really get behind to donate time or money?
A RPF project could address a top issue by 1) identifying a top cause 2) defining a scope that RPF could accomplish 3) executing and 4) reporting results.

Take the case of Baby Bou for instance. The 18 m/o baby boy was blown up in a SWAT raid. RPF is pretty good about bumping posts and maybe even sending a few bucks to help with medical expenses. But what about taking it a step further? Maybe buying a billboard to shame the Sheriff? What about organizing a protest to draw more media attention?

Would you be interested? What are your top causes?

I love this idea!

My top issue though is one that every county likely deals with: how much nepotism is in county government? Schools and school boards as well.

I really think Abdulrahman Awlaki is one that we could/should have addressed better, especially around the timing of Rand's filibuster.

That's the kind of issue we need to address.

Obama on one side of a sign and Dick Cheney on the other with "Who is to blame for ISIS?" Then a webpage with the link of Cheney's "quagmire" video.

bumping for activism

 

[CaseyJones]

How about starting up a general defense fund that can be voted on how to dispense on the forums by the primary donators?
And/Or creating a network of protestors in every state to picket police departments when these things happen?

It really bothers me that Abdulrahman's assassination got almost zero attention, hell, it was wrong to assassinate his father, much less his child. Police militarization is a no-brainer for political activism in all the variations--greens, commies, republicans, dems, etc. Although republicans tend to worship military authority, while dems tend to worship gov't authority (same thing, I know.)

Right now I am better for donating time than I am cash. I do research, marketing, and writing/editing in my work, so I would be glad to contribute anything there. I don't have thoughts on issues, but the dog killings affect me a lot.

A bill board of a mangled drone victim I'd contribute to.

And I'm tapped out.

I'd donate for that too.

how about a blimp with "Damn The Man!" on it!!!

That'd end up being a joke--people are dying and we're paying for it, that needs to end. (I think you're joking, just sayin'.)

So the poor slob who only had five bucks to throw in doesn't get a vote?

Sure, I'll donate to what I want to and bypass your fund. (jackass)

lol it was just an idea for doing something, I do know how much all you hate to actually do anything

I guess we can't all be as righteous as you, brother Casey.

I ain't your brother, I don't even like you fucking people but we either all hang together or we hang separately as someone once said, now quit niggling infantile points of order and lets do some shit instead of just philosofapping the day away shall we?

Define "you fucking people".

And please expound on why the "primary donators" should get to decide what happens to my contribution. It sounds as lot like the republican party.
