• We need you there at 9:45am SHARP to stand up to indefinite detention! On February 6th the 2nd circuit court of appeals will be hearing oral arguments in the lawsuit against section 1021 of the NDAA. Your attendance will communicate that the public is invested in the outcome of this ruling and unwilling to sit idly by as due process rights are eroded. For info on the NDAA lawsuit visit: http://bit.ly/XA9SeL ★★★ HEDGES et al. vs OBAMA, Second Circuit Appeals Court ★★★ Our Second Circuit court date has been set for: DATE: Wednesday, February 6, 2013  TIME: 10am EST PLACE: New York ADDRESS: United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit - Thurgood Marshall Court aka: Manhattan Foley Square Courthouse Room 1505, 15th floor 40 Centre Street (40 Foley Square), NYC Thurgood Marshal Courthouse on Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/ wiki/ Thurgood_Marshall_United_States_Courthouse (See below for further details.) If you support our efforts to restore your rights and are in the New York area, please publicly show your support by joining us in court this day! The goal is to pack the courtroom to the point of overflowing. Your presence WILL make a difference! Our lawyers have only been given 15 (!) minutes of hearing time and we expect the whole event to last for 1-2h only. A rather short session considering the importance of the coming decision and it's future impact - all the more reason for us to beg you all to come and bring your friends! We have to make some waves to show our lawmakers what we think of the NDAA's indefinite detention provision, to show that we won't stand idly by while our civil liberties are being eroded bit by bit. So join us, spread the word, invite your friends! Help us pack the courtroom to show the government that we demand our rights back! ✵✵✵✵✵✵✵✵✵✵✵✵✵✵✵✵✵✵✵✵ And a small appeal on our own behalf: We know that we don't have to say it really, but for the sake of completeness: Please be respectful in and outside the courtroom. As always, be excellent! To each other, the authorities, and in general :)  ✵✵✵✵✵✵✵✵✵✵✵✵✵✵✵✵✵✵✵✵ The map, from the official website for the court: http://www.ca2.uscourts.gov/travel.htm Travel directions, including nearby train stations: http://www.ca2.uscourts.gov/travel.htm#directions TIME by countdown: http://www.timeanddate.com/countdown/generic?iso=20130206T10&p0=179&msg=Hedges+et+al.+vs+Obama%3A+Second+Appeals+Court+Hearing TIME by timezone: http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?msg=Hedges+et+al.+vs+Obama%3A+Second+Circuit+Appeals+Court+Hearing&iso=20130206T10&p1=179&ah=1
