  I saw Fred on KTVU news. I don't know why more people don't watch it. They showed Laura Wells' arrest, too.

  Pro-Peace Friends,

  Although I have seen nothing in the Bay Area TV Media or in today's S.F. Chronicle about San Francisco's part in the December 16 country wide anti-war demonstrations, there WAS A significant Veterans For Peace(VFP) cosponsored PROTEST at the U.S. Federal Building (Mission & 7th St.) from Noon on into the afternoon.  In fact, at noon, 20 - 30 civil disobedience protesters did recline on the concrete plazas to block the building's two main entrances and to get arrested. At least 100 people attended the event.  (My daughter, Cheryl, and I left about 2:15 PM and are not aware of what happened after that.)

  To me it is appalling that there is so little outrage over the U.S. occupations of Afghanistan and Iraq.  Can the complacency be attributed to the traditional fuss over the Holiday Season, or has our population become even more desensitized.?

    Over 100 veterans were arrested at the White House on December 16 when they attempted to bring a message of peace to President Obama.

    Did you see it on the news?
    Here is a link to the story and a video:
