PORTLAND, Ore. — Protesters took to the streets of Portland on Wednesday, calling for an end to the Iraq war and greater scrutiny of President Bush's (search) re-election victory.
The demonstrators, who numbered more than 100, were met by police in riot gear and on horseback. At least five people were arrested, but there were no reports of injuries. Police squirted some demonstrators with what appeared to be pepper spray.
The protesters chanted "Not our president, not our war," and sought an investigation into Bush's victory over Democrat John Kerry (search).
"I want to see democracy in America," said Cyrus Smith, 24. "I want all the votes scrutinized."

I love this country. People have the freedom to expose their lunacy. Burn a flag or two while you're at it, whackos.

Those who refuse to support and defend a state have no claim to protection by that state. Killing an anarchist or a pacifist should not be defined as "murder" in a legalistic sense. The offense against the state, if any, should be "Using a deadly weapon inside city limits," or "Creating a traffic hazard," or "Endangering bystanders," or other misdemeanor.

To: marshmallow
The protesters who chanted "Not our President, not our war" should have added "Not our country". The American electorate by more than 3,500,000 votes made George W. Bush our President, and the war on terrorism our war. Therefore, the protesters might find it more to their liking to emigrate to another country, possibly Spain.
