1. GO forth and protest

Whether I agree or not, they are still free to protest.

There is a time to stop being polite. When someone has a knife to your throat is NOT the time to be polite. There is a time for alarms to be sounded. It seems the time is before Bush heads us further into a war with IRAN.

3. i just saw them protesting some iraq war [occupation!!!] forum about an hour ago on c-span.
i stood up in the middle of my living room and joined them! The idiot heading the panel kept asking them to stop their "occupation" of the forum's stage.

Medea Benjamin and the rest ... MoveOn and anyone who surfaces to protest the iraq occupation: i applaud you too!

4. I agree- if it takes petty word games to get attention- i guess
at this point, it's a necessary evil.

Sad frickin commentary on our society- that- But just like children who have exhausted every other reasonable alternative, sometimes people only listen when you 'act-out'.

And people have got to listen up- and wake up.


I honor those willing to face arrest, negative publicity, and personal risk for the sake of us all.
