I did read that.....
There is one of the problems. So many bad stories out there to discredit it. One participant made a facebook page on his own with a few hundred followers and he is a birther so the media focuses on him. His is not the main organizing page (with 178K likes). The media falsely reported they were going to try to arrest members of congress and the President. Again, not a true story. One person made a remark on one of the social media pages and that is all the media focuses on.
It is just how the media operates now and why it is important the real event happen- to prove their stories wrong.
Something interesting is happening that I'm checking on. I read on a post by a FB friend that they are starting to turn off traffic cameras around DC. I am about to go check the traffic camera sites myself and confirm this. If true, the PTBs really don't want this getting out which is all the more important reason that it happen.
