HOMELAND SECURITY TO MONITOR "PEACE MARCH"
& DISPLAY MOBILE DETENTION FACILITY

(San Francisco)-- Public Relations volunteers from the newly formed Department of Homeland Security (DHS) will reach out to and monitor the scheduled "anti-war" march in San Francisco on Saturday January 18th. The DHS volunteers will set up checkpoints along the march route to videotape participants, display a lifelike Mobile Detention Facility (MDC), and help safeguard Chevron-Texaco, Citibank and other corporate offices along the Market Street route. The MDC displays will feature "spoken word" poets who will attempt to incite detainees and members of the public.

"Our volunteers will be out in force to clear up public misconceptions about Homeland Security. We want people to get used to the sacrifices we are requiring of them and for families to test out our neat new Mobile Detention Facilities," said Admiral Poindexter of the Totalitarian Information Awareness Office.

There will be a mandatory training session for DHS volunteers:

DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND SECURITY VOLUNTEER TRAINING
Saturday January 18, 10am (sharp)
Art & Revolution, Redstone Building, 1st floor
16th St. @ Capp St (N.E. corner- 1 block from 16th St BART), San Francisco

The training will prepare volunteers to document people exercising their civil liberties, to set up a life-like Mobile Detention Center (MDC), and to participate in the Homeland Security marching drill team. DHS volunteers are asked to dress professionally with black/dark slacks or pants and shoes and white or light colored dress shirts. Volunteers are asked to leave backpacks at home, tie back long or unusual hair and remove excessive piercings. For volunteer detainees there is no dress code, just gags and possible blindfolds.

NOTE: Can you make copies of the DHS outreach flyer (5 Things You Can Do to Make America More Secure)?: Please download the flyer from our website, make copies and bring them on the 18th, 10am:
