Protests in the USA
The above two photos came from a protest in Olympia, Washington. These are protesters who are willing to put their lives on the line, and willing to be abused for their principled stand. They were pepper-sprayed (a lot) and then arrested. But they did slow down the war machine for a while. And, they are truly good and decent people. They blocked the passage of military cargo through the Port of Olympia.
More photos are here. Lots more photos. I have not heard any news reports on this yet. But I want to say that I am proud of these people for doing what they are doing - at great cost to themselves.
