(Take note that attempting to approach an elected official during a book signing may lead to response from local police. Although one may protest on the side walk so long as not to prevent others from entering an establishment.)

Barbara Boxer book signing “protest” by Conservative Forum
http://theconservativeforum.com/index.html Scroll down
Info: I heard from the Conservative Forum of Silicon Valley (CFSV) that Senator Barbara Boxer is having a book signing on Saturday, August 15th at 1:00pm at Barnes and Noble, 3600 Stevens Creek Boulevard, San Jose. Wouldn’t it be wonderful if we had 1,000 protestors on the corner of Stevens Creek Boulevard near San Tomas Expressway with signs protesting the rationing of health care with Obamacare? They encourage people to start gathering around 12:30pm, and things will disburse no later than 2:30pm.
The CFSV strongly recommends no one disturb customers of Barnes and Noble, nor confront Senator Boxer. There will be security, and any confrontation would negatively reflect on the protest. They are also strongly discouraging anyone from protesting inside the store. However, placards with messages similar to what we displayed on July 5th would be very appropriate as we greet car passersby, and accept their “thumbs-up” gestures.
Where: Barnes and Noble, 3600 Stevens Creek Boulevard, San Jose
Time: 1PM, gathering around 12:30pm and things will disburse no later than 2:30pm
