Get out your FLAGS!!




Here is the CNN headline for Saturday's NYC protest:
"Pro-U.S., antiwar demonstrators march"
(www.cnn.com/2003/US/03/23/sprj.irq.protests/index.html)

The media is doing everything possible to portray the antiwar movement as unamerican as they possibly can. This has not been a very hard thing to do, considering the fact that the only flags one sees at any recent antiwar rallies are palestinian and iraqi... and all of that's just fine, but we need to show that our protest is directed toward the Bush Regime and not the USA, OR our troops, who have been sent into a situation that is out of their hands. To make it clear that we do support our country's Constitution, and that what we are protesting and rallying in opposition to is this Administrations violations of that constitution, we need to dispel any insinuations that we are AntiAmerican or that we don't support our troops, immediately! There is no more direct way to confuse the right-wing media's agenda than to use the symbols that speak to every american, every flavor. Get out your American Flags my people, and wave them proudly, in spite of those who have hijacked our government. Our signs are important, but when The People see the pictures of our rallies, the absense of the American flag speaks volumes more than any sign could, and allows bastards such as O'reily, Hannity and Savage to brush off all opposition to Bush's fascist vision with no trouble. NO WAR.
