It's been a many years since I've marched in DC as I live quite a distance; but I plan to be in DC for the anti-war rally on Sept 24.

Seeing it appears to be gaining huge support,I'm wondering what others here are planning...and what you're thoughts are? :thumbsup:

Below is a partial list of endorsers. Please check back for frequent updates.

[nothingshocksmeanymore]

1. I can safely commit myself and my significant other

:thumbsup:

[END_HATRED_NOW]

7. I'm wondering

Cool, there's plenty of planning time for this one, that's good..

I would like to hear stories of people's experiences in marching or going to rallies...yes?:applause: The last one I got to go to was for women's lib....a loooooooooooooooooong time ago.:grouphug:

[nothingshocksmeanymore]

10. Myself and another DU'er are in the top of the frame in this one

It was in 03 shortly before the parade of horribles we call this war

[mahina]

31. Why did you miss all of the marches and protests in the lead up to this

illegal immoral war that has cost us 1700+ American young people and 4900+ injuries?

And yes, there will be other people at the rally in Honolulu.

[jobycom]

2. I'll make the attempt. Let's keep this idea kicked up

so it gets full attention.

[nicholieeee]

3. i think the young democrats club at my school is going

so i'll be there as well.

[Behind the Aegis]

4. nope.

not if they are the ones sponsoring it.

[wookie294]

8. Alot of groups are sponsoring it

Here's one....

http://www.unitedforpeace.org/

The September march on Washington will be the biggest in decades. That means average folk like you and me will be there. The war is insane and even Republicans know it. Time to take action!

[Behind the Aegis]

11. I understand.

They (the link you provided) must be getting hit hard...it is taking FOREVER to load! Whereas, I am firmly against the war in Iraq, since day one, I am not comfortable with A.N.S.W.E.R. or many of their protests.

[wookie294]

14. Okay

I accept that. But remember that antiwar rallies always contain every segment of political thought. You'll see a communists, anarchists and other interesting folk! But most of the people who march against this war are just regular people concerned about their country. I marched on New York City last August and I saw dozens of baby strollers, babies and parents. Most of the people were not the "radicals" that Big Media wants us to believe dominate antiwar sentiment.

[Behind the Aegis]

18. I agree

I have marched in several rallies before, most gay pride parades; so, I have seen my share of "interesting folks." ;) I just don't think I would be very comfortable with some of the rhetoric when it comes to the "other" Occupation (I don't want this thread 'banished'). Seeing a Swastika scrawled across a certain flag and signs like, "One nation only!" make me very uneasy. However, I hope that the message of peace does reach the multitudes. I will continue to do my part to end the Iraqi war and removal of the mis-Administration!

[wookie294]

23. We had 500,000 people in New York City last August !!

It seems every segment of society comes to antiwar marches, including out beloved gay community! I have liberal friends who are uneasy about ANSER. But they know the antiwar movement is bigger than ANSWR, "communism," the Democratic Party or that freedom fries congressman! The guys at ANSER are great organizers, so they get alot of attention. I think the march on Washington this September will be the biggest event of 2005 and will be remembered forever. People are angry -- and rightfully so!

[wookie294]

5. I'm going to DC

I'm so pissed off that I can't help that I intend to get arrested during peaceful civil disobedience. The last time I was arrested was protesting apartheid in South Africa. I hope other DUers plan to get arrested to send a message. If not, that's cool! But I am so pissed off about this unnecessary BULLSHIT war.

[lonestarnot]

6. San Fran or LA if they don't fall into the ocean. I'm in!

[END_HATRED_NOW]

9. I'll make the attempt. Let's keep this idea kicked up

"I'll make the attempt. Let's keep this idea kicked up"

Your pic is way cool!

Ok, let's start some SIGN IDEAS...

DANG,the best poster gets to lead the parade!:woohoo:

[lonestarnot]

38. What pic?

[Swamp Rat]

13. The 4th of July is the day I'm gonna march!

INDEPENDENCE DAY 4th of July 2005!

[Behind the Aegis]

21. Well...

As I told "wookie," there are certain elements that would put me ill-at-ease. I hope it goes well, gets media attention (we can always hope), and gets people to see that the war in Iraq is illegal and immoral. The other link you provided (same as wookie) is taking forever to load! Who'da thunk there'd be this many people trying to access it at this hour!?

[Swamp Rat]

22. WHAT? Are you talkin' to me?

... because I don't know what yer talkin'bout. :D

I am going to march for American independence on the 4th of July, 2005, and ain't nobody gonna stop me! :mad:

[lonestarnot]

19. That's another good day!

[Swamp Rat]

25. It's the PERFECT day!

Bushler cannot possibly prepare all the praetorian guard to stop millions of Americans from marching on the White House.

We have a week to get the word out.

If, by chance, millions of Americans were spontaneously aroused by the thought that complete unity is our most effective weapon against the fascist pretenders, and that if marching on Washington on Independence Day meant all the insanity would stop, I think we could win our country back immediately.

Sounds too good to be true? Well, there are lives at stake right now - humans dying right this very moment BECAUSE of the Bush administration. So, why not try to save them now?

[lonestarnot]

37. Totally agree!

[WillyT]

16. Me !!!

And anybody else who wants to come along!

:kick:

[END_HATRED_NOW]

20. I'm taking the ...

I think I'll be taking the Amtrack up from New Orleans...anyone else? I guess it would be better than driving.

How do you plan to get there? Bus, train, plane, car? Planning to stay over night? Bringing enough money to bail yourself out of jail if need be?

[WillyT]

24. I'd LOVE To Be In D.C., But I'll At Least Be In S.F. !!!

My piddly little job, and debt load, will most likely keep me fron D.C.

But protests in S.F. are pretty far out, ya know what I mean???

I'm an hour and a half drive away, so I'll be there!

I don't even want to think about bail.

:hi:

26. DC

MR PRESIDENT: THE WHITE HOUSE IS SURROUNDED! COME OUT WITH YOUR HANDS UP!

[rollin74]

27. I'll be going to D.C. for sure

I've protested in dc against the Iraq war several times ....first one for me was in Sept. '02 (6 months before the invasion)

Momentum appears to be building for 9/24. Hopefully there will be a huge turnout.

The biggest anti-war march I have personally attended so far was Feb. 16 2003 in San Francisco. Police estimated at least 250,000.

[mahina]

28. Me! July 2 here in Honolulu,

Festival of Resistance, Thomas Square park. Be there or be...in one over there!

[END_HATRED_NOW]

29. Ok,

so is anyone else planning on participating?

[catmandu57]

30. I'm looking for a ride

Whoever will take me along, there has to be room for a wheelchair, I'll roll, if I had to I'd crawl through the streets.
I've got to clear it with my wife, but, I think she'll understand why I have to go.
Something has to be done, I've sat on the sidelines long enough, I'm angry, and tired, but I'm pissed to the max and just don't care about myself anymore.
There are generations coming after us, and I don't want them living in a world that I wouldn't.

[END_HATRED_NOW]

35. "I'm looking for a ride"...what state are you in?

40. Missouri

I've got the united for peace website marked, I figure they'll be sending busses.

[mahina]

32. End Hatred Now...that's a great idea! Wow!

The whole world would change, what a cool thought. I totally agree.

Say, what hatreds in particular are you working on ending, and how do you do work to end that?

[END_HATRED_NOW]

36. well right now I'm working on ending Bush's hatred of....

Muslims and the rest of us American "terrorists" overthrowing the White House!:rofl:

I plan to be in DC during the protests.

41. I plan on being in DC

[Itsthetruth]

42. United For Peace And Justice Coalition

has also called for a National March on Washington on September 24th. ANSWER and UPJC are the two major national anti-war organizations which worked together in the past to build large anti-war demonstrations. Right now both organizations have called seperate demonstrations on the same day in Washington, D.C.!

Let's hope they can agree soon on a common march. I understand that ANSWER has been somewhat sectarian and pushy in their attitude. That must change. The big march will be organized by UPJC and I hope that ANSWER's leadership recognizes this reality and decides to co-sponsor the UPJC march on Washington. This is no time for petty disputes.
