The October 6th protesters will have peace keepers.

[mmonk]

I attended a webinar tonight on the protest to take place in Washington. There will be peacekeeper volunteers to make sure the protesters if they are going to be arrested, will be treated in a nonviolent manner. The same will be insured in any confrontations the protesters may have with police (police protected as well). The peacekeepers will be made up of volunteer vets. Thought I would pass that along following the recent mace spraying in the face of the women in NY.

You can track events or get involved with things as they are planned here: http://itsoureconomy.us/">It's Our Economy.

9. The protest is all design to be nonviolent.

They are there to keep it so. They will be in between any encounter.
