by marie Friday, Oct. 28, 2005 at 1:37 PM

Wednesday, October 26 -- Marking a grim milestone in the Iraq war - the 2,000th U.S. fatality - Pittsburgh Organizing Group (POG) held an emergency counter-recruitment rally and march in Oakland. About 130 showed up for the 7pm rally that began with a drum circle. The rally featured speakers from POG, CodePink, Anti-Racist Action, and spoken word artist Jeremy Shenk. After the rally, POG led a raucous march through Oakland past two recruiting stations, periodically blocking traffic at intersections, before finally concluding at Carnegie Military University while chanting, "Military Research Kills, Disarm CMU!".

Actually those aren't cockroaches, they are motorcycle cops, and they behaved quite professionally.

Good for us. When nuclear war comes all you wingnuts will be dead and gone and we'll be able to repopulate the earth.

wingnuts
by which wing? Friday, Nov. 04, 2005 at 2:53 PM

You didn't specify which wingnuts. There are left wingnuts, as all self anointed "intellectuals" with the I.Q. of feces should know.
