I'd like to get some people together tonight to keep vigil overnight at a mosque somewhere in Seattle. To be honest, I'm not sure where to find one, but I'm worried about vandalism by drunken assholes on Friday and Saturday this week. There's already been some, and I think the "high spirits" of the weekend are likely to incite more people to do things like that. I can't guard every Arab-American who may receive death threats, but I can guard a public place.

What I'm asking for:
Most importantly, a suitable place (contact info so people don't just turn up on their doorstep would probably be good!). The online yellow pages haven't been useful so far.
Protest-style signs.
Maybe some publicity once we get the location bit worked out.
Also very importantly, other people to do this with me. I've got concert tickets for tonight but will probably be free by midnight; I'd like this event to start before then -- maybe we could have shifts. And I'm afraid to do it all alone, but I feel like it's the right thing to do.

Can any like-minded people help me out?

I'm at home, in the pre-shower caffiene-absorbing stage. I was planning on going to the peace rally in the Seattle Center tomorrow morning... I'm not quite coherent enough to make plans just yet. I'll check back later, and see what's up.
