Dec. 21, #Occupy Los Angeles: Protest the Egyptian Consulate for Occupy Tahir

http://occupylosangeles.org/?q=node/3172

Description:

Egypt has called us to action. In Tahir square, Cairo, Non violent protesters are being shot with live fire. They are being killed. A child died last night from a gunshot wound to his stomach. The army there is shooting teargas into apartment balconies, and shooting at camera people. They also burnt down their camp, burned their books, and threw a moltov cocktail at the local museum. This is unacceptable. We need to stand in solidarity, and demand justice for Egypt!

They still have not gotten their election results, whole voting people were being killed, maimed, or terrorized. Nightly the protesters pray for their lives to be spared. It is only a matter of time before we face the same injustice's here

Location:
Egyptian Consulate
4929 Wilshire Boulevard
Los Angeles

The protesters in Egypt were the ones who inspired the occupy movement. They deserve our support. If I lived in LA I definitely would join the protest!
