From sandiego indymedia:

Recently the CIRCA boredom patrol has setup the Clown Around Compound,
come out from the underground and infiltrated the Westfield complex, dun
da DUUN!

From our compound we received a communique about a Border War, so we set out to disrupt the opening of the film "Border War"! We entered the mall and asked all around where we could find this war and do our part!

We had our signs ready: "Everyone is illegal", "More Fences, Fewer Families", "I'm not a racist, I promise... ...damn illegals" and "Brought to you by the KKK: Minutemaid". But when we got to the entrance of the movie theater we found that they were down on love and laughter, and they greeted us with handcuffs and pepper spray! We tried to tell the lovely guards that we were there for the movie, but they said that signs and face paint were not allowed in the mall because it's private property! We had to abort plan A, it seemed there was a glitch in our matrix.

Well, we're not into kinky handcuffs, well not into security guards with kinky handcuffs, so after a wonderful discussion about how property is theft, we marched out. After some marching in place on the people mover conveyor belt, the security guards turned it off and it came to a screeching halt and sent private pipi to the floor! The security guard brought out his silly pepper spray again(!) so we went on our merry clown way.

We were hoping to see the minutemen, hopefully join them and show our support with our signs, but the security guards wouldn't have that! We later received intelligence that Minutemen showed up and held their signs proudly, so apparently Westfield malls is okay with racist protest signs, just not really silly ones.

Operation "Where's the War" is NOT over!
