So, apparently some white supremacist loons have been threatening an immigrants march in Chamblee scheduled for Monday evening, Sept. 29. The march organizers have put out a call for more marshalls and contacted me. So, who wants to go have fun with some pinheaded Klan-wannabes?

Marshals are needed for the Sept. 29 "March for
Dignity," organized principally by the Latino community, demanding basic respect and
dignity, and specifically driver's licenses for undocumented workers, who contribute billions of dollars to the U.S. economy both in labor and taxes annually, but now find themselves unable to drive to work in the state of Georgia.

MARSHALS SIMPLY NEED TO BE AT THE MARCH SITE AT 4P.M., THE DAY OF THE MARCH (SEPT. 29). Meet at La Mision Catolica, next to the Doraville MARTA station on New Peachtree Rd., at 4p.m. on Sept. 29. Marshals will be briefed and provided with necessary information and
material logistics at this time.

It's been over 15 years since I've punched a racist. Coincedentally it's been 15 years since I've had my ass kicked by 8 racists. Hoping that sort of behavior (primarily the latter) won't be necessary, but count me down for fodder.

Excellent. Push comes to shove, every time I've had nuts like these threaten any event, they've always been too afraid to do anything. I do not expect that there will be any trouble, but we'll have a nice walk through Chamblee. See you there!

I didn't realize folks were convening at four. I am working until 5 but can jump in at that point. I'm only 2 exits up. I'll get your cell # so I can find you if I can't get out early.

Hmm, coincidentally enough I have Monday off. I was going to use it to get my tag and other errands but this could be a new low in lunacy I can't miss.
If you're compiling a list or emailing details or whatever, add me to the list and maybe I'll muster motivation.

Love to see you there. If nothing else, it'll be a nice reason to walk around Chamblee and get some good food afterward
