The Peace Movement Needs a Strategy For Afghanistan

admin @ August 18, 2008 # No Comment Yet

John Edwards brushing us off by using the catch phrase “supermarket tabloid” is somewhat ironic. In a supermarket at least 15,000 products line the shelves and coolers.

Editorial/Action: Another Way To (Not) Approach ‘08

admin @ August 9, 2008 # No Comment Yet

A large planned protest gives Homeland Security and local law enforcement a chance to test out all their crowd control gear. They really need a way to justify all the money that has been spent on crowd control when there were no unruly crowds to control. Protesting the convention is like a battered wife saying, “I’m going to confront him and tell him not to hit me any more. I have rights,” instead of going to a shelter and getting away from the batterer. It’s asking for more brutality.

They want a repeat of old convention protests with much brutality and a lot of press coverage, and they’ll get it. And spend the next few years in court trying to get compensation for injuries and false arrest for the ones who aren’t killed. So sad. Such brave young people with such creative minds and they aren’t open to doing things differently. They have all the right ideas about democracy, but they are still thinking in terms of violent revolution.
