Let's Go to the Mall!
Our focus should not be limited to ending this war, we need to ensure this tyrant (or any of his buddies) does not get re-appointed. Our target audience should be the sleeping suburbanites; those being brainwashed by CNN and suffering from Affluenza. Besides, a sit in at The Gap is much more comfortable than sitting in the rain. Let's channel our educational outreach efforts to those who drive their flag-stickered SUVs to the mall. Thoughts?

What does the phrase "Diversity of Tactics" mean?
Does the idea of a diversity of tactics mean that every protest must include civil disobedience and disruption, or is mutual respect and solidarity built on respecting the chosen tactics at various events?

Four more photos from March20th protest in downtown Portland
I think the Portland Police used shock and awe last night when they broke up the peaceful protest in downtown Portland. I was very frightened as I had never been involved in anything like this. I don't think most people watching this happen on TV or through some other form of media can relate to what it's like to actually be there. Hopefully, this photo I am posting will give others a bettr understading.

Cop car almost runs over protester
I caught this series of photos at NW 2nd and Couch. A protester tried to blockade the intersection as we marched down 2nd, but a cop car took no mercy in almost running him over. While he did have a "shield," this would be no protection from the wheels of the car, had he actually been run over. This cop hardly slowed down at all - if the protester hadn't gotten out of the way at the very end, he would have been killed. (article 1)

Lars Larson Hate show calling for Recall of Katz & assault on protesters tonite
Apparently Lars Larson (AM 760) has been waging a campaign to mobilize the right wing to get people to go down and beat up on protesters, along with getting Vera out of office.... Seems they are thinking the response of the police last night was much too peaceful.... That their hands were tied by Katz... couldn't have been Kroeker Larson says.... Apparently Katz is incompetent because she allowed the city to be shut down.

An older tan Ford van was stopped at 2:45 PM on Friday, March 21, 2003 at the intersection of 3rd and Davis today in Portland's Old Town District.
It's likely that this harmless peaceful couple and their pooch simply attracted too much attention in their older van while traveling over the bridge, and a check of their plates indicated some minor bureaucratic snafu.

Don't forget what we're fighting for
It is a tough time right now to be an American. The media is filled with warmongering and hate, pitting not only Americans against the world, but Americans aginst each other. It's been so long since we were all happy that people on both sides of the war issue have forgotten what we're fighting for, whether in war or in protest.

Enclosed is a form letter to send out regarding Oregon Senate Bill 742. This bill, sponsored by Oregon Senator John Minnis of Fairview (which will be considered Monday, March 24) would make interfering with commerce, transportation, education or government systems (read civil disobedience) punishable by life in prison - as an act of "terrorism".
Need I say more?

The show will be Saturday, March 22 at 8pm at It's a Beautiful Pizza (3341 SE Belmont). There will be a gorgeous slideshow of threatened eastern Oregon forests and areas that have been protected through the work of BMBP. Following the presentation, we'll have music by Djinn Teeth, Danny Dollinger, and Jen Rawlings. Sliding scale cover (suggested donation $6-15.) Coming to this show is a great way for "westsiders" to support eastern Oregon wildlands protection, as well as an opportunity to learn about the unique ecosystems over there. All proceeds will help BMBP continue to protect eastside public lands.

pro-troop / anti-war rally
we need to market the anti-war rallies as the true pro-troop / anti-war rally because we want to see our troops come home alive.
plus we need to start passing out 'n' stickers to replace the 'q' on the "attack iraq? no" bumper stickers.

The slogan "Fuck the Corporate Media" is doing the movement harm. Putting up our hands to block the cameras, swearing, spitting, and provoking the corporate whores might be fun, but it makes us look bad. Why should we make it easy for them to misrepresent us?

Initial shots of March 20, 2003 Protest
I have roughly 60 pictures and small 30 second videos of the march starting from the plaza, all the way to I-84 shutdown, until the point I got seperated by the police from the crowd crossing back into downtown. While there was not even 1% of the protest crowd being unruly (McDonald's window, some tagging and kicking of cars), I give the cops credit for only about 1% of them being confrontational.

Why 'Diplomacy' failed
This week the US Administration argued that 'diplomacy has run out' as they began the War in Iraq. There are several things that bother me about the current Administration's use of the word 'diplomacy', and their claim that they followed every avenue to work out a peaceful solution. The following highlight several examples of this failed diplomacy.

These are from 1-84 westbound at the Grand overpass, about 7:00 last night. (article 1)
I think the Portland Police used shock and awe last night when they broke up the peaceful protest in downtown Portland. I was very frightened as I had never been involved in anything like this. I don't think most people watching this happen on TV or through some other form of media can relate to what it's like to actually be there. Hopefully, this photo I am posting will give others a bettr understading.
I caught this series of photos at NW 2nd and Couch. A protester tried to blockade the intersection as we marched down 2nd, but a cop car took no mercy in almost running him over. While he did have a "shield," this would be no protection from the wheels of the car, had he actually been run over. This cop hardly slowed down at all - if the protester hadn't gotten out of the way at the very end, he would have been killed. (article 1)
I have roughly 60 pictures and small 30 second videos of the march starting from the plaza, all the way to I-84 shutdown, until the point I got seperated by the police from the crowd crossing back into downtown. While there was not even 1% of the protest crowd being unruly (McDonald's window, some tagging and kicking of cars), I give the cops credit for only about 1% of them being confrontational.
What happened to freedom of speech? Granted there are some dip-shits that topple bikes and beat/pepper-spray police or whatever.. But, this guy was part of the critical mass when police grabbed him for running a red light?
