The Circus!

For anyone on the US West coast another anti-border event is happening, this time in circus form. I don't have time right now to put much info, life is a bitch, but the link has all the fun information.

Lay Down Your Guns

Another little writing about war. Different twist though.
May 14t & 15 the Center on Conscience and War is lobbying congress asking for a law to give more protection to conscientious objectors. For anyone who wishes to be a CO, or who was a CO, or who simply thinks it should be an option this is an event that should be attended. As the War in Iraq has progressed more and more violations of CO rights have taken place. Now is a time to come together and ask for one more right to be returned.
