CALGARY, ALBERTA:

Calgary 9/11 truthers go to the CBC headquarters to spread some truth but get harassed by security for "filming their building" and were told you can't film buildings anymore. After that they went around Calgary's downtown handing out free DVDs. Music by Zardonic

We must have had nearly 500 dvds and tons of info to distribute and it was a real good turnout. We had 11 people total and our new bullhorn really added to the action. (Video will be up later.) Suprisingly after bullhorning on a corner for an hour by a bank that hates to have us in front of their store, we did not get any police response and even had some bank employees take info this time.



BARCELONA, SPAIN

img_0103.jpg
My first time taking action - what a great experience - I recommend anyone who has not yet done so, DO IT!! You will feel much better after. I was alone in the nerve center of Barcelona (Plaza de Cataluña), due to total improvisation and lack of promotion of the event, but it was well worth it to break the ice for me.

I handed out about 100 flyers both in spanish and english since there are tons of tourists there. Overall response was silent, usualy interested. I did not get any harrasment from anyone, please help us next time! Don't be scared to take action, it is the "coolest" thing you can do!

Thanks to all that took action that day! Keep it up!

AUSTIN, TEXAS:

William's visit was unexpected and emotionally charging for ALL of us. A big THANK YOU to Houston 9/11 Truth member Greg Johnson for bringing him out and snapping some great shots of the group. We also want to thank the guys from PNACitizen for bringing the bullhorn and banners out on Saturday and for working so hard to get William down to Austin for THIS particular weekend. Words cannot express what it was like to stand for truth, shoulder to shoulder, with a true hero, William Rodriguez. The group's spirit was renewed and we remembered again our sense of purpose in this movement. After bullhorning at the State Capitol we walked down to FOX 7 and took turns on the bullhorn there. We blasted their front entrance and created quite a scene. We will have video up soon I promise. We are fired up down here. We are going to try to do some sort of street action every week like this.

Last but not least I wanted to personally say THANK YOU to all of the TRUE patriots that came out and made a difference this weekend. It would not have been the same if just one of you hadn't showed. We changed minds this weekend because YOU ALL were willing to sweat your asses off for the love of your country. There is nothing so motivating for me, as to see other people full of conviction and strength and love, coming together to do GOOD things for this world. Thank you, more than I can express... thank you.

PHILADELPHIA:

We began our day of consciousness sowing by planting ourselves at the physical roots of the tree of our nation, Independence Hall. The crowds on Independence Mall were unusually fluorescent and most amiable towards our presence, spare a few thorns. For the sake of refreshment we moved our site over to South Street, a more vivacious jungle of personalities. On South St. we encountered everyone from an architect unsure of 9/11 truth to a marine vehemently supporting 9/11 truth. In all we planted hundreds of seeds in the form of 100 DVDs, 500 fliers, and visual ubiquity. Our foremost gain however came from delivering a DVD to the firehouse across the street and then following up with them a few hours later. The majority of the firehouse (approx. 80%) agreed that 9/11 was an inside job after watching the footage from 9/11 Mysteries. Just a word of advice to other truth activists out there, be sure to sign up people you meet for activism - get both e-mail address and phone number when possible - thus ensure growth in future tactics.



SEATTLE:



OTTAWA, ONTARIO:

1114257086_c32be305dc.jpg
I hit the town with 170 discs. I had the 11 Remarkable Facts About 9/11 card paperclipped to a burn of 9/11 Mysteries. I started with 200 but these things are so hard to hold onto. Pizza guys, people that knock on your door... Everyone's getting them. I was heading to a rally against the SPP (North American Union) that had been organized by others. Will they accept 9/11 truth or will they recoil from me in horror?

1114261096_fbca01e9ee.jpg

They accepted me. Good people it seemed. Behind them, you can see the Lady Dive which is a tour bus that turns into a boat as it drives into the Canal.

1114205540_515e337048.jpg

Since this was an announced rally, the Freedom Vans were parked right next to the monument in case some of the protesters needed the Freedom beaten into them. One of the protesters started loading batteries into a megaphone. I informed him about the Ottawa by-law which prohibits the use of a Megaphone without a noise by-law exemption ($50 and 60 working days please). He scoffed and said he didn't care.

1113411811_1564ac36c2.jpg

Cops all over and a guy about to violate a noise bylaw... I bugged out. Good thing too, since 2 of them got arrested when all was said and done. Wish I would have stuck around to film that. Instead, I wandered the perimeter, then headed down to Rideau Street. I unloaded all of my discs as I walked around. Ottawa's a pretty beautiful city. My last disc went to a lady in front of the CBC Radio building on Sparks street. LOTS of people got the TruthAction URL, lots of people got their paradigm shifted just a little, and hopefully lots will join me on September 11th when I head back to that same CBC Radio building. Wish I would have taken more pictures. I was out for about a total of 2 hours. One guy honked his horn and said he'd already ordered his Inside Job tee-shirt. Hopefully I'll see him in September. As always, one person can make a difference.

ATLANTA, GEORGIA:



LONDON, ENGLAND:

Due to the legislation from 2005 (SOCPA – Serious Organised Crime and Protection Act) all demonstrators had to apply for a lone demonstration license from the police. To remain within the law we therefore all had to demonstrate on different topics to all be lone demonstrators. It was a lovely day in London and the response we received was great, over 300 DVD’s given out and many fact sheets. This is the third action we’ve taken on the 11th and was definitely the most successful. We will now hit the streets every Saturday as a result. We will have a video of the action on youtube soon.

BOSTON, MASSACHUSETTS:



Many people were receptive, over 300 DVDs given out, at least 100 to demonstrators from the Service Employee's International Union, check out the still photos at the end. Even the people who have "served" in the US military and those with family members "serving" were open to learning. Also a man who lost his brother on 9/11 in the towers, stopped by thank us for our work. He said our being out there made his day and he looked forward to joining with us in our work.

Get off the computer and out there on the streets folks. The people aren't going to come to us - we must go to them.

We plan to keep it up. This is just the beginning of our street action campaign.

ANNAPOLIS, MARYLAND:

Five hours on foot throughout downtown Annapolis, Navy town and capital of Maryland. Thousands of eyes on our signs, tens of DVD infopacks and Deception Dollars distributed. Way more positive feedback than negative.
