Downsize DC is about to bring you a new tool
Last week, we had requests to comment about the Baltimore riots. “What is the Downsize DC position?” Were you one of the people who wanted us to comment?
The Baltimore riots are a real problem where the federal government has made things worse. Of course, I wanted to comment!
But we already write Action Items on bills before Congress. Those take time to research and prepare. Any writing is a project.
I don't really have an outlet to quickly, rapidly respond to these kinds of relevant and interesting matters. Until now…
Last year, our sister organization, the Downsize DC Foundation (home of the Zero Aggression Project, coming soon), received a grant to buy some studio equipment and produce some videos. We started to build it. Here is a picture of me standing in front of the green screen in the back of our Operations Office.
Now, I need to finish the studio. And DownsizeDC.org needs to do its part in order to use it. If I had this studio, I would've used it to quickly rush out a video explaining how…
-
Riots are not protests. Protesting is a peaceful activity
-
Riots tend to violate the Zero Aggression Principle
-
Contrary to myth, riots are extremely effective: They get attention and action
-
Their result is more statism
Would you like to know more? If I had the studio, you'd be watching the short videos where I explained these points, in our unique Downsize DC way.
These videos will also give you another tool to share with others.
You can help make this studio a reality, with a generous contribution or monthly pledge.
Downsize DC accepts cash, checks, Visa, MasterCard, Discover, American Express, PayPal, and Bitcoin. Every bit will make a difference.
Thank you for being a DC Downsizer,
