Jersey @ the Oct. 25 City Council Meeting
Occupier Jersey Deutsch, got up to speak on the topic of Occupy San Diego at the October 25 City Council Meeting. She called a mic check and approximately 50 members of Occupy San Diego delivered the message through a people’s mic. This is what we said:
"Mic check. We represent the Occupy San Diego protest. Our protest is protected by our constitutional rights. You took an oath to uphold our constitution. Therefore we request that you respect and uphold our right under the 1st Amendment of our Constitution. Please endorse our peaceful protest action against undue corporate or monetary influence on our government. The Los Angeles City Council adopted a resolution supporting the Occupy Los Angeles protest. We want the same respect here and from you. Similar to LA our protest will have tents, canopies, power ad portable restrooms. We will continue to have a medical tent, food, educational materials and media support. We will continue to Occupy Civic Center plaza and expansion park areas. We asked you to place this item on the agenda at the last meeting. You did not, so we ask you again. Here is a copy of the proposed resolution. Please call a special meeting to propose this agenda item immediately. Under the Brown Act you can discuss this and place it on the agenda now. If you do not place it on your agenda we will accept this as consent to our protest, and plan for our constitutional rights. Again if you do not place this on the future agenda at this time we will accept your passive consent to reoccupy the Civic Center Plaza and Children’s Park and your action will be evidence of your support of our constitutional rights."
