IRC Updates from 2/16 meeting
We will be at the same location as last time (Corner of N. Tryon and Trade St.)
Since the laws about public food are very strict, individually wrapped cupcakes appears to be our best choice.
Bullhorn will be bought ahead of time.
Stay tuned for more updates and visit us on the enturbulation forums. http://forums.enturbulation.org/viewtopic.php?f=21&t=2605

UPDATES FROM IRC MEETING (Feb)
Charlotte Police have been informed and will be there to help us
on the 3rd of Feb I will be able to submit a request for a noise ordnance permit
The Press will be contacted at a later time after discussion
OK, in case anyone was wondering, there is a public library next to the local, we may use the bathrooms in there but we CAN NOT bring in signs
There is a member in durham that needs a ride to the event, THEY WILL PAY FOR GAS. query manergy in IRC about it
I suggest parking decks for the security reasons THIS is a GREAT site to call and ask about parking, ask them how close to trade and tryon it is. PARKING IS UP TO YOU. DO NOT POST WHERE YOU WILL BE PARKING
I suggest you bring no less than 100 fliers per person (direct link of APPROVED fliers below)
Rule 1: DO NOT ENGAGE IN ANY
PHYSICAL CONFRONTATIONS
IF YOU FEEL THREATENED, IMMEDIATLY GET A POLICE OFFICER
ALSO, IMMEDIATLY ASK FOR CAMERAS TO BE POINTED ON YOU
our universal word for needing camera attention will be BEL-AIR
RULE 2: Do not engage in any verbal
harassment, simply state that you are
using your first amendment rights
do not sit, if they are going to attack that will leave you too vulnerable
walk quickly to an officer
remember, if it is a real threat, skip belair and go straight for HELP
your personal saftey is more important than the lulz
do not turn your back on anyone threatening you
back up if you need
be careful about backing up
obviously ask for help from anons around you first
I will request the police escort us to our vehicles afterwards, but this may not be possible because there is the chance of a specific parking deck being closed
RULE 3: DRESS CODE
BLACK SUIT PANTS/JEANS
COMFORTABLE SHOES (STYLE AND COLOR DOES NOT MATTER NO CLOWN SHOES PLEASE)
WHITE DRESS SHIRT/ T-SHIRT
BLACK SUIT JACKET IF ITS COLD OR ITS UP TO YOU IF YOU WISH TO WEAR ONE IN THE WARM
BLACK TIE
BLACK SCARF (If you don't have a black scarf a reasonable color is allowed such as red, white, or blue)
BLACK HAT (only normal hats, skullcap, beanie, or bowler)
rule of thumb - if it isn't something that a reasonable person would wear as everyday apparel, leave it home
EVEN A HOODIE HOOD WILL NOT BE ALLOWED AT THIS PROTEST
OTHER NOTES FROM IRC
please remember, you are free to come and go as you please
but don't leave, get loaded, then come back
also, you WILL NOT be turned away if you are not in dress code
but shirts with profanity and the such will need to be turned inside out
AKA DONT FUCKING WEAR THAT SHIT
"How about if your female, dress code? I'm not 100% sure if im going but I am trying."
BLACK SKIRT/PANTS, WHITE BLOUSE, BLACK TIE, BLACK JACKET IF ITS COLD
I want everyone to bring something to record with, if you have it
slr cameras, digi cams, cell phone cams, paper and pencil ect
eat before you arrive and bring snacks in a plastic bag or backpack
DO NOT SHARE FOOD WITH OTHERS OR ACCEPT FOOD FROM PEDESTRIANS
WE CAN ONLY HAVE ONE BULLHORN/MEGAPHONE, QUERY MANERGY ON IRC IF YOU HAVE ONE OR KNOW WHERE TO GET A CHEAP ONE
NEXT MEETING WILL MOST LIKELY BE THIS WEEKEND NOT ON SUNDAY THOUGH... FUCK THE PATS.
