There were at least a couple of hundred anti-American "peace" demonstrators assembled. They had a platform, ample PA system, and numerous speakers from various traitor groups. The rally appeared to be a veritable lovefest of various far-left groups: N.O.W., Free Mumia, EarthFirst!, every stripe of campus anti-War and pro-communist group. Che Guevarra t-shirts, etc. It was a beautiful, sunny, Arizona fall day. Crystal blue sky. About 90 degrees. Lots of perky little college coeds with bare Britney midriffs, piercings, tatoos, along with the usual hairy, smelly, unwashed rabble normally associated with the word "scum." Extensive display of the American flag was virtually non-existent.
When members of the crowd were interviewed and asked if they had a solution to dealing with terrorism, no answers were forthcoming. "Well, ahhh, well, we really need to stop the bombing and racism and deal with our own problems here first - like hunger and homelessness. And we need to stop our dependence on oil and destroying the environment. Then the rest of the world might respect us and not hate us so much," blah, blah, blah, ad nauseaum.
