We prepared for the May Day Anti-Immigration Reform rally at the very last moment and were not very prepared. haha.
We pretty much threw the whole thing together in the two hours before the rally started. Two of us were dressed in the orange suits, one carrying a large American flag with a ghetto Mexican flag tacked to the bottom of it, and the other orange suited actor was a drummer. We had our camera women dressed in a white bodysuit with a Mexican flag tacked to the back of it, and we had a lady dressed as a Mexican who was carrying a big sign that said "What would Mary do?" (in relation to America dealing with the immigrants) with pictures of the Virgin Mary on it. Also we had a gentleman with our crew who carried the sign that said "Illegal Immigration Began in 1492", and last but not least, we had an actor dressed up in the military uniform with the green border patrol hat, whisky bottle, crutches, and George Bush mask. Our drunken Bush posed with the crowd.
At one point we stopped the whole crowd of 1000+ people by making a scene and making alot of noise (we had two drums and a VERY loud whistle) and after about 10 minutes of us having the crowd at a standstill, we were told that we had to move because we were blocking traffic on two roads with out antics.
