Some of the older ones brought their children into an unsafe place at least one of the days and should have been arrested for child endangerment. They neither stopped the shipments or changed anything about the war.

They are mostly a bunch of whining, idealistic, brainwashed idealogues that have no clue about what is really going on in Iraq.


1) The professor/ringleaders are doing the same thing that they are protesting against and has caused all the problems humanity has ever faced--Old, well fed, comfortable men convincing young, starry-eyed idealists into the trenches to fight their fights for them with the young's only reward being bragging rights and maybe a shiny commemorative pin to show for it.

2)Radicals suck no matter what banner they are under.

3)Not one of those losers I've ever seen around Olympia, which leads me to assume they are just Dipsh.its up from Portland & Eugene here to try and have a mini WTO they can tell thier friends about.

4)Vince hit the nail on the head.
