Support for AZ Billboard action

Ok, I have a small window of opportunity here, and an empty billboard

Keep it reasonable in size, but suggest a good message to display. We can show support for AZ, and/or tell the politicians who have tried to speak for us to go stright to hell...no;.. Mexico:D

no more than 20 characters per line, and no more than 3 lines on each side of the billboard, not including the SOS.info

Hit me!

Here's a reminder of the size for good measure

Good news everybody. I just got a call from AG and he has been able to get the parking spot right in front of the function in Sac where the Mexican politicians, directors, commissioners and such are having a get together with their California counterparts. He's flashing the sign trailer in their faces. He'll have pictures later this evening. Ya gotta love the guy. He's often at the right place at the right time.

Way to go AG!...I'm deffinately going to be there friday.

Good evening everyone,

Here was the day's events planned, and I opted to go the "invitation only event listed at the bottom. I invited us:)
I hastily lettered the trailer, one side only, and took letters for the other side with me. I then drove to the event, which was in the heart of downtown. This old building is a small state park, but has metered parking out front. I had to do many revolutions around the area before a space opened up just about as close as anyone could park, and right near the entrance. It was a good tour, as we had good exposure. Most of the event attendees walked right by the billboard, many of which took photos of it, and a few took photos of their friends giving the the bird to the sign.
I'd say we were not really welcome there, but who was really expecting that anyway. Mostly these were mexican diplomats, a few politicians, and a whole lot of people who either are, or would benefit from more trade with mexico. The event wasn't without some trouble, but the park service assigned a couple of their finest to keep in close contact. Actually they never left me. I'll upload some videos and pics soon

The park police were just a few steps away

This woman posed for someone who took her pic in front of the sign. She was flipping the bird when the photo was taken though:p

Ok, so later, near the end of the event, the entire Mariachi band came down to the billboard and began to sing and play. They actually went and leaned on the trailer at the street side first, and the park police got them out of there. Next, they came to the other side where I was and began to sing and play again. Now I appreciate good music, and I am always in favor of diplomacy and good relations, especially when they reach out nicely like that. But......
The way I feel is that they must understand that we are really getting angry, and all the crimes, economic and physical, are not going to be smoothed over with a song and a smile.
Soooo......
As they sang and played, I picked up my roster of victims and their respective mexican criminal perpetrators, and sang them to the music.
As soon as someone figured out what I was doing, the music stopped and the insults began.
I know where my loyalty lies, and it won't be sweet talked. (You listenin' Chelena?)
I did get video of this, and it's the highlight of the tour of course, but I have to make it up, and still put the billboard to rest for the night, so it may not be available 'till midnight or so. Sorry, but it's on the way

OK, Here it is; I call it Illegal's Serenade:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=

your sign got my attention and I joined the cause last night. I work for The State and we have a satellite shop directly across from The Stanford Mansion.
I am sick to death that the only activities that I have ever seen at the Stanford involved high officials from south of the border. I wish I would have had more time to stop and introduce myself, but we were on our way to a job. I joined this site on a State computer and plan to email all my friends and also to post links to this website on several diesel pickup websites that I am a member.

Thank you for the work you do

big jake

Dang Guy, You have ALL the fun. I wish I could have been there to see the clowns when you started to sing.

Thanks a million. :)
