KC AntiWar Rally - Pictures

[proud2BlibKansan]

DUer evlbstrd helping set up for the rally. They hung pictures of all the soldiers who have died and names of Iraqis who had also been killed. It was an impressive site - all those pictures hanging all over the park!


We had a good sized crowd, especially considering the weather was cold and windy with storms in the forecast.


All local TV stations were present and all did stories last night.


This is DUer KansDem. Great sign, eh?


This kid told me he made his sign himself. I was impressed!
It says "Quit Bombing My Children - God"


This kid was with the one above. His sign says
"And you thought he was pro-life"


These kids wore their signs.



This guy had front and back signs.


Always a good sign!


I loved this t-shirt! It is a picture of a bomber and the caption is
"Democracy We Deliver"

















Another two sided sign.

[proud2BlibKansan]

10. Thank you

[TheDebbieDee]

4. You guys looked GREAT!

I saw coverage of the protest on the local FOX channel - They gave you guys 95% of the coverage.

They devoted very little time to the lone war supporter standing across the street!

[proud2BlibKansan]

7. Yeah but that asshole was on all 4 local stations!

He said the same thing to every reporter. I thought that was kinda funny. Some lame ass remark about getting the job done. Oh, and don't tell the TV guys this, but he wasn't all by himself. There were a total of FOUR counter protesters. But they were banned from coming into the park so they had to stay across the street.

[KansDem]

43. I noticed every time a police car passed through the intersection...

He saluted them!

I thought even the police must realize he's a nut case.

5. Great pics!

thanks for sharing. :hi:

[proud2BlibKansan]

8. You are most welcome

[Mabus]

11. Great pictures

I tried to make it. I was helping my brother move. He had a deadline of 5 p.m. Sunday but didn't tell us until 10 a.m. Sunday morning. :grr:

[Joe Fields]

12. I really wish I could have been there...

I have a lot of pretty heavy stuff going on in my personal life right now. Hopefully I can be there next Sunday.

[proud2BlibKansan]

21. Hope you can join us!

I sure understand that life gets complicated.

13. Too extreme in my tastes

Most of those signes made little to no sense.

Impeach Bush? He's declared a police action (Not a war, just military action), ergo, he's not personally responsible legally for military action.

Was President Lincoln held responsible for the deaths? FDR? George Washinton?

Just because you don't believe in this war, doesn't necissarily make him a war criminal.

[ayeshahaqqiqa]

14. Well, Tom, I think the Impeach signs

were about the warrantless wiretapping Bush has said he has done, not about any actions he has made leading up to or during this war. Welcome to DU! :hi:

[Arugula Latte]

15. I'm sure the parents of the children slaughtered by his military action

will be relieved it wasn't a war!

Enjoy your stay on DU. I'm sure it will be quite long. :eyes:

16. Have you signed your enlistment papers yet?

:shrug:

[Crazy Guggenheim]

18. So when are you signing up to go to Iraq? Or are you just a chickenhawk?

:popcorn:

[proud2BlibKansan]

22. LOL I see my pictures have attracted a new DUer!!

Welcome!
:hi:

There are so many reasons to impeach the man, I wouldn't even know where to begin. Let's see . . . how about warantless wiretapping? Or - now here is a novel idea - we could impeach him for LYING. (Don't really know where to start on that one either) But I am sure you noticed that he told a whopper just today! You heard didn't you? He denied ever connecting Sadaam and 9/11!! LOL But really, if Clinton can get impeached for lying about a blow job, then surely we can impeach bush for lying about a war.

No I am sure Lincoln, FDR and Washington were not considered war criminals by most American people, but they didn't lie about the reason for war and they didn't invade innocent countries. They also WON the wars they led us into and had the support of a majority of Americans.

el pretzeldente isn't a war criminal because I don't believe in this war. LOL He is perfectly capable of committing criminal acts of war regardless of what I think about what he is doing.
:rofl:

That's good. He's a war criminal because I don't believe in this war. LOLOLOLOL

[LisaT]

24. Come on now

We can't really impeach a "president" who was never actually elected in the first place, right? :P

GREAT pix! Hooray for the KCers!

[proud2BlibKansan]

26. Hey LisaT!

[LisaT]

31. Hey!

Thanks, Proud! :hi: Nice to meet ya and see your wonderful pix from KC. Thanks for getting out there in the cold!

So you were at Camp Casey last year? One of my bestest friends in the world was there. Said her life was changed forever. :patriot:

[proud2BlibKansan]

33. Yes I was only there for three days but it was definitely a life changing

experience!

[LisaT]

35. Yep

My friend was just there for a long weekend, but says she will never be the same, that she just couldn't be the same.

[Crazy Guggenheim]

41. Mmmm, smells like Teen Spirit

Here's a place you might like.

[KansDem]

44. Well, this statement kind of blows Bush's argument out of the water...

He's declared a police action (Not a war, just military action)

Until now he's been saying he can do whatever he wants because he's a "war president." So the sheeple believe he can illegally wiretap Americans because "we're at war." But now that you've declared this whole Iraqi invasion to be a "police action." Have you ever heard any president say, "I'm a 'police action' president, so I can do whatever I want." Have you ever heard the people say "We're in a 'police action,' the president can do whatever he wants." ??? Either "war" or "police action," arrest Bush--he broke the law.

Time to impeach and indict.

[im10ashus]

19. Thank you for posting, proud2Blib!

I love the duct tape peace sign on that kids shirt. That's one way to use up all that duct tape we've been saving in case another terra attack happens. :-)

:yourock:

[proud2BlibKansan]

27. That was a neat touch!

There were several kids there who used duct tape to "wear" their signs.
