Re: Random Poll: rallies, protests and parades

  • I've only participated in parades. I've done the Indy 500 four or five times because of my high school and college. Also my moms work had a contest and I was able to ride on the company float when was in fourth grade. Ive been in a Disneyland parade for high school and I think that was also the Rose Bowl too. I've been in two other Bowl game parades and that was for college.I forgot to add in a poll question, have you ever been in riot?One year there was a riot at my college because the girls basketball team won the National Championship. I don't know why people decided to light a dumpster on fire but they did. I did not participate in the riot but was on the outskirts of it watching it all go down.

    Have you ever participated in a parade? Which one or ones? Umm, does a summer fair parade in my hometown of 1500ppl count?  If so, yes.  I rode in the back of my dad's pickup with a sign for his tent rental business.  I was a pretty big deal.

    Have you ever organized a parade? No.

    Bugabean, now I'm curious.

    No, at least not that I can recall, although I was somewhat into that type of thing in college.  I was probably too lazy.

    No.

    Yes.  Fourth of July in my hometown, I was marching with my karate school.

  • Have you ever participated in a rally or protest? What was it for? Yes, several. A few (at high school) protesting against education reforms which meant they would cut the number of places in universities and introduce entry tests in more subjects. Also in solidarity with teachers when budgets were being cut and the number of pupils in classes was going to be raised to 30.

    I also participated in the first "marche blanche" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/White_March

    Have you ever organized a rally or protest? Yes, I was one of the few who encouraged everyone to protest with the teachers (see above). In my last year of high school, I organised for the last two grades to join the (university students) protests against the education reform. We then went from school to school in the area getting more to join.

  • Have you ever participated in a rally or protest? What was it for? Yes, it was to protest the UK governments ruling on breastfeeding in public places only being legal until 6 months old. We wanted it changed with no cut off time. Oh, and it was a peaceful picnic protest. - http://www.bournemouthecho.co.uk/news/2391493.picnic_protest_at_breastfeeding_ban/
