“First, you destroy statues that tell a story, like a book does.
Then, you destroy any books that might tell the same story.
Then, you deprive anyone from safely assembling or speaking.
Finally, you destroy Democracy.” — Jim Gilchrist
MINUTEMAN PROJECT CALLS UP ALL VOLUNTEERS TO CONVERGE AT WILL ON LEXINGTON, KY. to peacefully protest the arbitrary forcible removal of any Confederate era statues.
Warning to participants:
Whatever you do, stay within the rule of law! Your adversaries are most likely to be the ones engaging in lawlessness. Let them be ones arrested by law enforcement.
Minutemen and Women, by the powers vested in us by our nation’s Founding Fathers, you have an irrevocable right to peacefully assemble and speak.
If it’s a war our political governors and our anti-First Amendment adversaries want, then we will fight them within the rules of law and under the First Amendment of the COnstitution of the United States of America.
STAND YOU GROUND!
Build alliances with like-minded Americans and show up in Lexington, Ky. to protest in massive numbers. Thousands, not dozens or hundreds.
