Rally protests bombing in Afghanistan The Associated Press 1/18/02 5:46 PM
EAST LANSING, Mich. (AP) -- A small group protested the bombing in Afghanistan on Friday, rallying on the Michigan State University campus to call for a peaceful end to America's war on terrorism.
They met in the snow at the MSU student union and marched a short distance to call for eased treatments of immigrants, and an end to racial profiling and the "unjust detainment" of Arabs and Muslims.
The protest was organized by Direct Action, a local activist group.
"It is important now more than ever that people stand up against racist interrogations and in defense of civil liberties," said Heather Buckley, a member of the group in a prepared release.
Another group, supporting the bombing and the U.S. efforts to eradicate terrorism, also showed up, but the demonstrations remained peaceful.

That's it? WTF happened to equal time?
That's only for socialists and others who hate everything about this country that makes it great. It doesn't apply to us.
Good Job!!!
Welcome to the club. You support bombing and for some god knows what reason did not get violent. Typical liberal press coverage of our side at one of these events. Regardless, America knows the true bottom line and that you guys were out there doing the right thing.
LOL. Thank you, Mighigan Freepers, for "also showing up". Way to go!
