[history]
OUTSIDE MY OFFICE Thursday morning, a band of 50 or 60 people marched down the middle of Fifth Street, some waving signs saying "War is terror." Others carried placards with one word: "Peace."
When I heard them, I stood at a third-floor window on Fifth Street near Mission and watched. A young man yanked a newspaper rack from the sidewalk and into the street. He pushed it on its side and walked on. Other young men and women followed suit until the street suddenly was an obstacle course of overturned newspaper racks. Some drivers tried to maneuver around the racks. Others stopped where they were, backing up traffic.

They are anarchist-socialists (yes that is a real movement). The use of black is a tip off among some protestors.

I support the right of all anarchists to be bulldozed off the Bay Bridge.

Look at www.akpress.org's anarchism selection. All of the "favs" from Marx to Chomsky are represented.
Since when are they honest in their words?

"We have to take drastic measures to get our message out," Note to Tom Daschle: This is NOT the way to get your message out.

"We have to take drastic measures to get our message out," one protester told a Chronicle reporter. Why? Who would even care what a bunch of left wing losers have to say? They can't even take care of themselves - let alone make decisions for any one else!
I imagine most peace activists condemn tactics that cause damage or profound disruption.
Not really. Let wing mentality is left wing mentality.
The peace movement needs not only to keep repeating its message, it needs to lead by example. It must show that peace isn't just an absence of bombs in a foreign land. Peace is an absence of vandalism in our own streets, a refusal to incite physical altercations, a resistance to disrupting an entire community for one's own purposes.
Thank You. Vote Bush 2004. Want to be a left wing low life anarchist? Vote Democrat.
What peace in the world? Vote for the adult. Vote Republican.
Protesters need to remember what, exactly, they are fighting for.
Don't worry. They haven't forgotten. "Viva Saddam!"

FOX - Quoted from NYT -
"President Clinton never would have started a war around Oscar night , one of Americas most honored traditions."
