If they really believed in “No to Torture”, they’d disband and quit torturing us with their BS.

Ft Huachuca is home to the Military Intelligence School and one of the courses taught is the Military Interrogator Course. Last year 3 of the FREAK-A-ZOID Leaders were give a detailed briefing on what was taught by the post. They came out afterward and said they were lied to and that they knew torture was taught but the post just wouldn't admit to it.

You can’t convince the FREAK-A-ZOIDS of that. Expect them to have SERIOUS TUDE Sunday cause their Marxist Savior is Pres. Elect.

What's the connection with code pink?

I don't see anything in the article about them

It's amazing that these people are able to effectively shut down a Government agency for a day

I'm sure they will tout that as a victory

“We stopped the teaching of torture for one day”

WHY WE PROTEST AT FT. HUACHUCA
A Statement of Southwest Witness Against Torture - www.southwestwitness.org

October 2008

Gandhi teaches us that nonviolence needs to be practiced in places of
institutionalized violence.
Blah blah blah...
There was a great big puppet of Gandhi at the San Quentin parking lot the nite they executed Tookie.

The poeple there didn't like hearing that Gandhi would't have liked it the way Tookie murdered people and laughed about the way they died.
