Shut Down the War Machine Fri Feb 15

FRIDAY February 15

Military Recruitment Keeps the Illegitimate War Going - PROTEST

More and more military recruitment centers have recently opened to pull high school students into the occupation of Iraq and Afghanistan. Stop the business as usual of dragging youth into the war machine!

With righteous indignance, ridicule, and reality, we will gather youth, grannies, anti-war protesters, and public office holders to say NO! We're going on FIVE years of this immoral, unjust war. The people must stop it.

Students will counter-recruit at the recruiter's outpost. Rather than signing up to carry out war rimes with the lying representatives of the army, students will be invited to join the resistance.

Having your own vehicle is a necessity nowadays. If you fail to manage the required amount at your own then loan is the only option left for you. But most of the lending organizations impose heavy processing fees even while they promise a low interest. In such circumstances you need a reliable resource that offers low interest rates in true sense. Cheap auto loans are the best choice in this category.

Wow, a National Day of Action and the lead event on Georgia Ave had less than two dozen folks? Literaly tens of thousands of moonbats in the DC metro area and you draw less than two dozen and NOBODY makes it into the recruiting center.

No wonder Abbie Hoffman committed suicide in a chicken coop in New Hope. He saw this coming and Lost Hope.
