DECLARE YOURSELF FOR IMPEACHMENT IN ORANGE
DECLARE YOURSELF AGAINST TORTURE IN ORANGE
DECLARE YOURSELF AGAINST THIS ILLEGAL WAR IN ORANGE
Don’t think that we are moving towards fascism?
Also check out Dave Lindorff(writer, author of The Case for Impeachement), he wrote a piece on the police who were video-taping our the World Can’t Wait permitted rally: www.thiscantbehappening.net. During our permitted rally outside of the Municipal Building Plaza, the police were
video taping the speakers and the crowd. When asked who they were and who they represented, they made very few comments. Dave Lindorff explored this a bit more and found out that they were from the Counter-Terrorism
Unit.
Not only do those video cameras represent scare tactics, but they show how the police/state views political demonstrations. At our permitted rally,
the Anti-Terrorism Unit was turning their cameras on a political demonstration as being the “enemy.â€
In the aftermath of the the Bush Regime legalizing torture in the name of national security. At their own free will, the US is able to spy on who they determine are “terrorist.†This legislation spills over to spying on
people in the U.S. As one member of World Can’t Wait said:
“The fact that we are considered terrorist is ridiculous. That is why we must continue and do the things that we are doing (rallying and marching).
This is an example to what we are trying to bring to light. That’s why it’s important for people to come together and continue to do things like this.â€
Our local chapter will follow up the ACLU and with Dave Lindorff.

The Call to Drive Out the Bush Regime!
YOUR GOVERNMENT, on the basis of outrageous lies, is waging a murderous and utterly illegitimate war in Iraq, with other countries in their sights.
YOUR GOVERNMENT is openly torturing people, and justifying it.
YOUR GOVERNMENT puts people in jail on the merest suspicion, refusing them lawyers, and either holding them indefinitely or deporting them in the dead of night.
YOUR GOVERNMENT is moving each day closer to a theocracy, where a narrow and hateful brand of Christian fundamentalism will rule.
YOUR GOVERNMENT suppresses the science that doesn't fit its religious, political and economic agenda, forcing present and future generations to pay a terrible price.
YOUR GOVERNMENT is moving to deny women here, and all over the world, the right to birth control and abortion.
YOUR GOVERNMENT enforces a culture of greed, bigotry, intolerance and ignorance.
People look at all this and think of
HITLER - and they are right to do so. The Bush regime is setting out to radically remake society very quickly, in a fascist way, and for generations to come. We must
ACT NOW; the future is in the balance.
