No Gays for a Day: Dec. 10, 2008

Patterned after the 2006 Great American Boycott organized by Latino immigrants, on Wednesday December 10, gays should stay home from work, school and do no shopping, to prove how crucial they are to American society. No Gays for a Day will demonstrate what it would be like if -- as so much of the non-coastal U.S. seems to desire -- gays just disappeared. You may not even know who all your daily gays are, so there's no predicting the impact.

Stay home!
Don't buy anything!
Make it your own personal day of rest.

I always think these kind of protests are easier said than done. I could manage most of it, except not showing up to work.
