This is one of my favorite. Go online and find 1984 by George Orwell... or relevant articles in the media (usually alternative) and printout out sections (with citations) and place them in public view. In the case of 1984 with notes referring to the Amerikan Fascist system we are in. For example find the section with Goldstein and two minutes of hate. Then write about it Bin Laden.
some remaining sites with 1984 at them (most sites have vanished over the last year):

oh and here is how you can make it "stick" in an elevator door, public bathroom stall, smoking area, in a phone booth, at a bus stop....
Ingredients:
1 cup of wheat flour
1/2 cup of rice flour
3 teaspoons of cornstarch
2 cups of water
Combine wheat flour, rice flour, and water in a pot on the stove on low heat. The mixture should be very watery. Stir the mixture constantly with a wire whisk until the paste begins to thicken just a tiny, tiny bit. This may take about ten minutes. Take the pot off of the heat when you start to feel the mixture thickening. In a jar with a lid, combine three teaspoons of cornstarch with a half of a cup of water. Tighten the lid and shake the mixture until there are no lumps of cornstarch that are visible. Add the cornstarch mixture to the flour mixture and stir for another two minutes. Now you are done. Your arm may get tired, so I suggest that you do this with someone else so that you can switch off stirring.
I cannot emphasize the importance of stirring enough. Yes, it is tiring, but don't stop.
Wheat paste is the best way to put up PERMANENT posters. If you have a message that you don't want taken down, wheat paste it!!! It may take you a few tries to get just the right mixture, but once you do, it's way better than Super Glue.
