Subject: RE: BS: Who's marching on February 15th?
Yo, Steve, my friend. The anti-war movement is *pro*American. If Tom Jefferson were alive today, he'd be in New York on Saturday.

And, McGrath, I agree with you that there will most definately be "plants" in the demonstration and If there is any destruction of property, I'd bet that they had someting to do with instigating it.
But my gut feeling is that there will be many arrests for *civil disobedience*! I have been following the Justice Department's unusual moves this week to prevent the march and I think that amny will march anyway. I'd like to see 10,000 arrests and had planned to be one of them if I could have gotten up there. Actually, I would love to see all half a million get arrested! The ban is bull****!

If it were a bunch of Young Republicans who were demonstrating for the war, they would have gotten the permit in a heartbeat. NY and the Bush folks are doing everything they can think of to scare folks away from this protest. Why? They don't want the rest of America to see *what democracy looks like!*

I'll be looking forward to reading everyone's reports Saturday night. Don't forget to take a camera!
