NC ALERT: Leftist "anti-war" rally in Fayetteville planned for March 20, 2004

It seems that the usual suspects (United for Peace and Justice, International ANSWER, National Lawyers Guild, International Socialists, Muslim American Society, etc.) have had some difficulty amassing the requisite number of sheep to do another "Mass March on Washington," so they are instead planning multiple smaller events across the country on March 20th.
Heads-up North Carolina FReepers - they are coming to Fayetteville, NC.
From NCPeaceHub's website, here is their announcement:
March 20th: THE WORLD STILL SAYS NO TO WAR
Fayetteville, North Carolina- 11:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.
Local: www.Ncpeacehub.org National: www.unitedforpeace.org
One year ago on February 15th, 2003, millions of people took to the streets to say no to the impending war on Iraq. On March 20th, 2004, the one year anniversary of the U.S. Invasion of Iraq, people from around North Carolina and the South will march and rally in Fayetteville to demand Real Support for the Troops: Money for Jobs and Education, not War and Occupation. Sponsored by Military Families Speak Out, Veterans for Peace, United for Peace and Justice and over 100 local peace & justice organizations, the March and rally on March 20th in Fayetteville is part of a global day of action to say: The World Still Says No to War. Organizers are seeking endorsements, donations, peacekeepers and other volunteers. Durham and Chapel Hill bus tickets are available from the Regulator Books, the Know Bookstore, and Internationalist Books. More information is available on the web at www.NCpeacehub.org.

You can come up here and hang out with us.

Shave your head for peace. Ladies are invited to make a Strong Visual statment to stop the war. What are they trying to do? Turn this into a wet Tshirt contest? Janet Jackson going to be there? LOL

Oh, don't you know - they can't come because of the NAACP ban.
To: tgslTakoma
It's not here either!

People in Charlotte won't care about "another" peace rally. I think those of us who can make the trip should converge on Fayetteville. I will check with some folks other than my hairdresser to see what people are doing, though.
Wherever we need to go, let's all keep the date.

I agree.

Last year when they protested Pres Bush at the convention center, only about 6 of them actually showed up. The counter-protestors got tossed out, though. Go figure.
