Capitol Police broke the leg of a man who was stopped for wearing a button that says "I LOVE THE PEOPLE OF IRAQ."
You can decide for yourself whether he really assaulted an officer or not. I think not. I think the only assault that took place was on the Constitution and your right to freedom of...
When I saw this on the news today, Secret FBI Unit Detained War Protesters In 2002, I thought at first they were talking about the recent settlement of the million dollars, Seattle has agreed to pay the 1999 WTO protesters who were arrested and detained for three days to stop them from being...
It's been a while since he's photographed an anti-war rally. I think these things are so funny!

Just WTF is that? This was the chant at the "anti-occupation" protest yesterday. I just do not get it.
Just how does one “drop peace” and upon whom does one drop it?
Other than that it’s a wonderful idea.

Marching With Stalinists

The left in America has for a long time now resembled not so much a political movement as a contest to see how many schismatics could dance on the head of a pin, a conversation that has gone from being...
According to this "ant-war" banner waived at a demonstration for "Peace" it's wrong to support "Imperialist War", but "Class War" is just fine thank you very much. :rolleyes: :rolleyes:
NO difference between the holders of this banner/this viewpoint than the good professor of anthropology at...

.........by doing nothing but sit on my ass and complain about the peace protestors!!!
I'm sorry Ive just been listening to too much talk radio. Man these callers have such distain for the peacenicks. I wonder what these people would do if there were no protestors?
If you really support the...

Yeah, fine...Ellsburg, and the Nobel laureates.....unfortunate. And I certainly do not condone the hopping of police barricades during protests, as such activity can turn a peaceful protest into a riot very quickly...
Oh where to begin with the qualifications for what I'm about to post? I could mention my opinion that the dichotomy of "the war is why you protest, the troops are why you can protest - both sides please keep this in mind." Or maybe by mentioning my desire to get T-shirt made with "No Blood for...
A peace proposal was done by Saudi Arabia as a consequence of the inevitable wave of anti-war and anti-USA protests in this country and others in the region.

Story from the Oregonian
An Oregonian state senator has introduced a bill to "create the crime of terrorism" and apply it to people who intentionally cause injury while disrupting commerce or traffic. If convicted, they would face imprisonment for life.

Here are some sites for inspiration, research, documentation, flyers, tshirts, bumper stickers and other ammunition against these looney tunes.

Everyone who protests the war in Iraq in America on the streets of our cities (especially the Saddomonites in San Francisco), is an ally of Iraq purposely and provides Iraq aid and comfort as US troops fight for their lives to free the Iraqi people.
Something may need to be done about the...
During the House of Commons debate last night over a rebel motion to stall British military involvement in Iraq, there was a demonstration/vigil outside.
It was a sensible example of democracy at work - chants slogans banners and fair amount of ad hominem.
The interesting part to this? A bloke...

A collection of slogans spotted at the Feb 15th anti-war protests
Which one is your favourite?
I did have lots more, but I think these are the better ones. Less expletives too.
i.e.
- 'Make Tea, not War'
- 'Down with this sort of thing'
- 'Flutemakers against the war - Vivaldi not Violence'...

They have marched and chanted, hoping to use persuasion to prevent war. If that fails, though, activists are readying a more aggressive strategy of sit-ins and social disruptions, meant to restore peace in Iraq.
Protest sit-ins, especially...
There is a lot of focus on protests against the US involvment in Iraq.
How come no one mentions anything about the Ivory Coast, or North Korean threats to lob nukes around at the drop of a hat?
Is that stuff ok?
I raise this issue as the inconsistency/bias of people really irks me. If you're...

Tmy has already mentioned people making the protestors look like boneheads. However, the protestors do a pretty good on their own.

Notice the sign this lady is holding. It says, "Are you willing to kill her to get Saadam?"
FACT: She and 500,000 of her children have been killed since 1991 due to sanctions that Saadam continues to not only allow, but...
After seeing some of the signs and speeches at these anti-war rallies, I can't help but think they would get more headway if they were just more frank.
Signs like "No War for Oil" don't affect me in the least. Or "Down with Imperialism".
Now here is my idea of an honest anti-war rally:
