Stryker protestors meet at Thorne and 11th


The protestors at the Port of Tacoma met today from 4 to 7 PM, enjoying what they called an arts vigil, designed to give families and community members a chance to send a message of care and concern to soliders in the 4th Brigade, 2nd Infantry Division set to be deployed to Iraq next month. Above is a shot from the same spot, taken last night by Olympia native, Robert Whitlock.

I hear that the ship is almost loaded, and soon will be away, carrying its deadly cargo to the US Colony of Iraq.

If you've been living under a rock, or are just now discovering the growing Tacoma anti-war scene, there will be a massive rally and protest march this Saturday, March 17, at 11 PM in Tacoma's Hilltop People's Park (South 9th and MLK).
