PHOTOS: BRINGING THE WAR HOME TO THE TAXPAYERS in Eugene, OR
Edited on Tue Apr-19-05 11:15 PM by unhappycamper
Those Patriots in Eugene, OR are at it again. (Can't believe I forgot to post this in the OR forum...)

<snip>

Thirty activists from Eugene-Springfield forcefully protested the war in front of the main mail drop-off point for last minute Lane County tax filers. About five thousand cars with eight thousand people passed by our group at an average of 5 mph as we stood lined up lined up for nearly six hours along their path, holding graphic images of the injured casualties of the war: children, men, women, and soldiers, bearing messages like, “Your tax dollars paid for this,” or “It’s our money, stop the war.” (See link for "Our Posters) at http://www.squadron13.com/CivilResistance/TaxDay2005/default.htm * And we had lots of facts interwoven into our placards as well.

<snip>

These folks absolutely rock. WAY TO GO!!!!

edit: fix link
