Peaceful protest in front of the new Tesla Dealership March 15. Bring your signs, bring some friends! Responding to "Roman Salutes" with an Ides of March warning: the people do not consent to billionaire power grabs! Many ways to participate.
PLEASE NOTE: DO NOT PARK AT THE DEALERSHIP OR ADJACENT PLACES OF BUSINESS.
This is intended to be a peaceful protest on PUBLIC GROUNDS (the sidewalk in front of the dealership), for which we will not need a permit. The only convenient parking is across the street in the shopping plaza, which is likely considered private property. If you cannot carpool, bike or bus to the protest and need to park in the plaza across the street from the dealership, perhaps consider entering one of the stores and purchasing some bottled water etc in case there are parking lot "spotters" (to minimize your chances of getting towed after you mosey across the street to the Tesla dealership).
If you can't bring a sign, consider printing out some flyers:
Standard language from TeslaTakedown:
We are taking action at Tesla.
⚡ Sell your Teslas, dump your stock, join the picket lines.
⚡ Hurting Tesla is stopping Musk.
⚡ Stopping Musk will help save lives and our democracy.
The stakes couldn’t be higher. No one is coming to save us—not politicians, not the media.
