Fayetteville Online coverage of our antiwar protest

Standard stuff from the right: "They aren't here for the troops. They're here for the terrorists."

"We're offended that the march is being held here in Fayetteville."

1. Great rally!

The way we diffused the critics was to have signs that said, "We support our troops-not Bush's policies". Yesterday, we had a 21-year veteran of the armed forces speak-and he told it like it is, how the war was illegal, how the Bush Maladministration was taking away benefits from soldiers, especially Guardsmen, etc. He got the loudest ovation of all the speakers, and, I think, opened some people's eyes.
