….does it make a sound?
What if a public event has a “free expression zone” for protestors but there are no protestors, do you hear a message?
That was at the entrance to the San Diego County Fair, and with 1.5 million people expected to attend this year, you would think at least one protestor free expressor would be in the protest zone free expression zone protesting expressing something, like maybe aliens at the Fair, or pornography at the Fair, or…. or…. or…. So many things to express. Maybe they were abducted by those aliens?

I never cease to marvel at the human ego! The making of a sound does not depend on a human being there; the sound is going to be there human ears or not! it’s human ego that says you cannot make a sound without me, me, me!

If there were such things as Aliens they would probably not want the protesters as part of their cargo, no doubt they would complain about the flying saucer conditions, I have a warning for you Russel something you need to be aware of you may qualify…see link below.

If I saw this opportunity, I know I would take it. I’d sing or dance or just clown around. Actually, I do these things anyway, so I’m not sure anything would change, except maybe the perception of those that hear or watch… 🙂

It is obvious (and proven by your photo – – – sans free speakers – – -) that they had already been taken by the aliens (sans papers). I know that last parenthetical was politically incorrect (which also makes arzent’s comment on human ego very valid – – – my ego overrode my sense of decorum and I wanted everyone to know how clever I was). Excuse me for a moment, I am getting a set of voices on my other mind.

I wonder if they have copyrighted their Free Expression Zone idea? And I love that they want to corral the “Expressive” ones among us, but they’re also concerned about their comfort…with an umbrella for shade. It reminds me of a playpen…to keep the expressive in or the non-expressive out? I am now mentally scratching my head.
Thank you for this wonderfully expressive photo 😉

I don’t know the full extent of the laws, but apparently whenever the public is allowed, even if by admission fee, protestors must be allowed, too, and in a reasonable place where their message can be seen or heard. Comfort, i.e., protection for the hot sun, restrooms, etc., must also be provided. It’s a wacky world we live in, especially here in California.
