Stop TTIP/CETA/TPP/NAFTA Protests – worldwide – update (10.04.2014)

Useful links:
- the protestmap:
https://mapsengine.google.com/map/viewer?mid=z2_7kVjvOAF0.kJGmGBbsABbM
- the neutral protestwiki – pretty well developped:
https://stopttipprotest.wikia.com/
- the wiki page for making a demo location entry on the map:
https://stopttipprotest.wikia.com/wiki/Demo_location_entries_in_protestmap

First of all,

sry for not reacting so fast; I'm pretty busy. Just to end the delay:

- Zby, your suggestion for the “why we protest” clearly improved; now I 
don't
see any problems with it.

- Stuttgart is put on the protestmap 4 hours ago; thx 4 the advice...

- the doodle ended, the international demo day is fix since last weekend –
http://doodle.com/yx9zvpn767cvbtfz?locale=en : The international demo day
against TTIP & Co. will be on 15.05.2014, so in approximately 5 weeks, 
if you
didn't notice, yet...

- Brussels also is put on the protestmap, as they've planned to do a 
stopTTIP
demo on the 15.05., anyway (meaning the PAFTA group among Ben Borges –
http://www.pafta.eu/ ), so nice doodle result ^^ ...

- Düsseldorf will follow within the next days; on Friday I'm going to 
visit a RL
meeting of the pirates in Düsseldorf to make sure, that they will 
participate
-- the demo route in Düsseldorf will end at the NRW parliament; on the 
15.05.
the NRW parliament has a big meeting; so we make use of it by making one 
of our
pirates in the NRW parliament come out then and hold a speech; probably from
every parliamentary group then someone will come outside to talk to the
demonstrants – so good timing regarding the date result also from this
perspective ^^

- going to RL meetings of local pirates and motivate them to start a 
stopTTIP
demo on the international demo day against TTIP & Co. is a very effective
approach, btw...

- So, currently we have 12 demo locations, spread across 5 countries; 
another
location clearly following by the end of this weekend.

- As we had to learn, making an international demo day by going to all 
groups
across the world at the same time is too optimistically planned nowadays;
so now we're doing it step by step: First making everything clear in one's
respective own country; as soon as all looks decent in one's own 
country, one
can switch into turning to the public stronger and hint them on the
map (so, message boards, twitter, Youtube-Videos, google+, RL, and so on =>
promises rising) hoping that this will motivate other countries to join 
or – the
ones, which are reserved right now – participate stronger; and then, as 
soon as
we finally have such an international network of demo locations, approaching
NGOs once again and ask them to participate... if we do it like this, 
the NGOs
won't have fear that the protest will be too small and
we focus our ressources where it makes sence...

- But you all don't need to wait on anyone, pirate movement, if you want 
to see
stopTTIP demos on the 15.05.2014 – just 7 to 10 days before EU elections 
2014
(!) - well, then simply do so; noone is prohibiting you to do so ;) ...
-- and if you're not from the EU, don't feel not concerned; this day is 
not only
to demonstrate against TTIP, but also CETA, TPP, NAFTA, TRIPS etc. ; and 
if you
are not concerned by any of those international agreements,
then do solidarity demos for the people, who are concerned by those trade
agreements; you have to keep in mind: Making this international demo day BIG
probably is the biggest election help you can do for the EU pirate 
parties right
before the EU elections; and you know how crucial it is for all of us to 
enter
EU parliament with pirates ! This is our grande final !

- if you already have started a Facebook event page with promise 
opportunity to
your local demo, you can set the page open; no need to make it closed, 
so that
people outside of Facebook can't see what's going on inside ;) ...

- I'm going to work off the demo overview wiki pages for all countries now;
that's where anyone can entry details of the respective demo. I'm going 
to do
this by using templates, which result in yellow boxes on the wiki page;
if you want, you can edit the template of the respective country to 
translate it
– then the yellow boxes will be in the official language of your 
country. All
demos on the protestmap will get a link to their respective sections on 
the demo
overview pages.
