Bring 1 Large Red Balloon to Protest DARPA is having a contest for social networks to find their Red Balloons starting December 5th through December 14th until they are all found. This is US only. (Sure other countries could, but I don't think it would draw the same amount of attention). That means people with be actively looking for the DARPA red balloons around the country & tweeting about them via social media. By bringing a red balloon, large red balloon, we will attract more attention to our protests. It doesn't have to be a perfectly matching large red balloon with a number at the bottom (although that would be awesome as that would draw more attention). I suspect any large red balloon will be enough to draw extra attention. Prior discussion http://forums.whyweprotest.net/7-chit-chat/40k-if-we-dont-fuck-up-57713/ Contest website: Network Challenge
