What a good cause, and what a good way to slap the ignorant scapegoat seekers in their conscious.
I would love to go, but I don't think I can. Would you mind if I copied this picture, and posted it in my group forum, as well as a myspace bulletin?

To piggyback off Nightmare's post. Here is the latest information:
"Gamers United" in Manhattan (www.myspace.com/gamers_united)

This is not a tournament, this is THE FIRST EVER RALLY FOR GAMERS. There will be many things to do including casual gaming, music, and media coverage. Possible media outlets who have show interest is MTV, CNET and MSNBC. A trifecta of support will be at this rally, JC Media + Entertainment (http://www.jc-media.com) (Industry) Empire Arcadia (http://www.empirearcadia.com) (Community) and ECA (http://www.theeca.com) (Legislative). Feel free to bring your PSP or DS Lite, however JC Media will be bringing up televisions, consoles and games for gamers can play and have a good time in a peaceful manner.
Everyone has heard about the news about the shooting at Virgina Tech. A tragedy like this is never easy to see, and often times people question who is to blame. Some media has placed the blame on video games, and even worse, there are politicians who hate video games, and are doing everything they can to stop this great past time of ours. This rally is the community's chance to have a voice to the world. We want to show everyone that gaming is just a fun and exciting activity to spend your free time. Come to show your support in protest to the negative image portrayed to video games.

I would go... but I have SATs... that would pretty much drain me... also I wouldn't have a ride...
If anyone is going that I could hitchhike, I might be able to go, but I would be late.
