So much of the regime is about trampling the Constitution. All roads lead to the Constitution.

I ordered a bunch of pocket Constitutions, and have some relevant signs. I am going to put together a small "rally" with my local group, with a focus on the Constitution. We will hand out Constitutions. I plan on going to some local high traffic areas - on the block near a local post office; a couple of local shopping villages.
