Come on folks we need Vegas' page to be more active. The last event was a huge success by Vegas standards and I know our next one can be just as successful if not more.
Who else is going? We need people to join us.

My friend had a small encounter with officer Krause. My friend feels humiliated with the way he was made to feel by him. Apparently, Officer Krause, didn't like the way my friend was holding his flag and thought the best and most reasonable way to tell him to hold it right was to get in his face and threaten him.
I told my friend to let the folks at the Center know so that if officer Krause pulls this stunt at another LGBT event he'll be on the watch list. I don't think people that were there to keep the peace should disrupt it in what I think was an attempt to make my friend an 'incident'. My friend does not want to make a big deal out of this. He just feels horrible that a police officer would talk to him the way he did. I'm doing this on his behalf and hope that if anyone saw what happened that you speak up and tell us what you saw. I was away at the time and didn't see what happened. I'm simply letting you know of what I think was an attempt at causing a scene by officer Krause while the other police officers with him watched on. |

Again, I must stress the importance of the NATIONAL, which actually became INTERNATIONAL protest at City Hall at 10:30. This isn't to say there isn't room or time to attend both demonstrations, but gathering together in a gay enclave will not get us noticed, and it will not let our voices be heard.
PLEASE, join the impact (pun intended) and be at City Hall. The rest of the US, and indeed many other parts of the world, will be waiting for you! See you Saturday at 10:30 at City Hall! 400 Stewart Ave Las Vegas, NV 89101

The national join the impact group assured us that many cities around the country are doing it at different times. if you look at any of the materials from national LGBT organizations, November 15th is a day for rallies, demonstrations and protests. we have decided to hold a rally because we are taking the "Anger into Action" stand rather than to protest against a certain group or ideology. So i think it is a matter of coming from a place of negative or positive.
We will be moving from our "enclave" to Sahara Avenue after the speakers. So please, everyone join all that is going on...the point is to get involve and turn this energy into a positive force for our community. and please let's not get hung up on semantics. this is a time to unify!

Everyone should attend the 10:30 protest at City Hall. I am not trying to discredit the Center but I do not believe that hiding in the metaphorical closet that is Commercial Center is effective. I want action, I want change. We need to be present in the Vegas Community as whole, not just the gay community.

The rally is at The Center, and they've already started working on this, so let's not have inner bickering.

To clarify, the center is holding a "rally" at 2pm. A "rally" not a "protest".
THE NATIONAL PROTEST is at 10:30AM sharp in front of CITY HALL!!! (400 Stewart Ave Las Vegas, NV 89101) Feel free to attend both, but PLEASE come to the actual national PROTEST that <i>this</i> website is all about and that instructed us to conduct the protest at the correct time (which is the same time as the rest of the world). Also, I hear there's going to be 5+ local news channels at the Protest. So PLEASE bring you're flags, signs, friends, heart, and seeds of revolution to CITY HALL @ 10:30AM!!! |

I keep an eye on the enemy to here what they are saying about us. I was horrified that one of the Reno Talk radio shows on 780 am "The Bill Manders Show" last night 5-6pm was all about prop 8 and they bashed gays protesting the entire time. Please try to here it. it was on last night 11/12/08. It is a conservitive show so most of us were not watching but we have to do something.

Please join together as ONE community in Reno and join us for the official protest at 530pm! This rally has the support of most GLBT organizations in town.

What would a rally at the center do? Are people going to city hall at 10:30am? This is all very confusing.
