Associated Press Friday, January 3, 2003
SAN RAFAEL, Calif. (AP) - A group of Marin County women plan to march naked through San Francisco on Jan. 18 to protest the possibility of war with Iraq.

Women in DC will be doing the same thing.

This will either get the attention they're looking for, or it's going to drive a lot of on-lookers to the other side. lol

I would believe that the size of the crowd will be in direct proporition to the age of the marchers.

The younger the marchers, the larger the crowd.

The march organizer stated,

"Our message to women all over the world is be bold, be courageous, be vulnerable for peace."


When the cause is so serious, this naked march seems like a mockery to me.

It'll be a short march ~ directly into a squad car three feet from their front door, as public nudity is not allowed.

Most people look better with at least some clothing on. If you've ever been to a nude beach, you know what I mean.

Isn't it awfully cold in Washington DC this time of year? It's not a site I'd be anxious to witness!

That's why they are streakers - not cops chasing - they're freezing their little butts off.

That is why no men are joining in the march...

And you can rely on your other respected source, CNN to report the event in particular detail along with photographic images in an effort to portray war protestors as a bunch of nuts.

For what other reason do you think Linda posted this topic?

I suppose if they were doing this in SUPPORT for the invasion of Iraq, you would consider them true American patriots?

And I'll bet, just like the million "persons" march in the past, none of them will miss work to attend.


Because none of them are working.
