Default Protest Against Hugo Chavez

So some friends and I have decided to start a protest. This is a protest against Hugo Chavez, Citgo, and Venezuela. We will be doing this in downtown Jacksonville by the landing. Not too sure of the date just yet, but we are trying to find out who will be interested. If you are tired of hearing "americans need to go to hell" and "bush is the devil" join us in this protest. Maybe some venezuelan flag burning and big signs would be sweet. We are also going to try and get a lot of local news stations down there. Let me know if you are interested in standing up for your country!

invite as many people as you want...

the date planned is april 21, 2007 but is subject to change.

I've been avoiding Citgo for about the last year since learning
it's the Venezuelan oil retail channel. But I'm not going to be
standing around chanting for the cameras, nah.

Get y'alls some Speedos and have the Venezuelan flag sewn
across the ***. Film at 11.

No reason for flag burning. We could just go over there and kick the **** out of their women and babies.

Hey my family is Venezulan. Do you honestly think all Venezuelans like Chavez? Thats like saying everyone in America voted for Bush.

Protest Chavez for sure but not the country itself. Chavez lied to the lower class, and killed and bribed a lot of people to get where he is, none of my family down there voted for him. I actually had to cancel a trip down there when I was in highschool because there was a violent anti-Chavez protest going on. Burning the Venezuelan flag is just ignorant and stupid, Chavez doesnt represent the Venezuelan people.

**** Citgo, **** Chavez, Leave my people alone.

I'm all for Chavez being removed from power. Chavez needs to get owned. However, that doesnt put a whole country and its people on the same level as he. Why burn the Venezuelan flag?

Why don't we just burn posters of Chavez? Why the flag? That is supposed to represent the whole country, citizens and leaders, past and future...
