A late night idea for Occupy.

It's late, and my brain can be particularly foggy at this point, so ... Hope I'm putting
this post in the correct area ... I'm also homebound, close to bedridden, so I cannot get to a GA.

How about:

A whole boatload of metal coathangers with the following attached (or combinations thereof):

1. Metal coat-hanger with the words: Not Appropriate for Choice
2. A snipped-off condom with the words: Not in MY Body
3. (This may be off-putting?) A large/long pink Komen ribbon with the words: Not in Attendance
4. A length of surgical tubing with the words: Rape Us (Not!)
5. Pill containers (tied on with Komen ribbons?) with the words: (not-equal-to sign) Prostate Cancer

A large group of women/men carrying these (maybe the hook of the hanger
attached to fronts of one's shirt) could be protesting in absolute silence ...
