Good luck to those who attend protests

Australian anti-war protests seem to be going smoothly. Our local protest was very peaceful with a good cross section of the community. There were over 100,000 people at the Melbourne protest yesterday.
I'd like to congratulate anyone who chooses to go to a protest, this is a worldwide concern and we need to take a stand. It only takes a small effort from each person, but the combined force of many is powerful.
I hope that protests go well all over the world!
Peace

Well done. They are saying there may have been 3/4 of a million people protesting in London. The biggest march in the history of the UK. Up in Glasgow (where I was) there was about 50,000 (probably). Also the biggest march that Scotland has ever seen. If Blair ignores this he will be commiting political suicide.

Apart from a (rather inevitable) skirmish outside the American embassy it was a very peaceful march. This I found to be very cool as protests normally lose a lot of credibility when they turn into riots.

I just got back from the protest in Calgary. It was great! Lots of fun, met lots of cute girls there too. 5000+ in attendance, we marched through the streets and had speeches. Nice weather too, cold but not windy at all.

I drove 5 hrs to Chicago today to protest. Was kinda nervous cuz we had alot of rain and snow and it was a slick ride but it was worth it.
