From Dede of Gold Star Families for Peace

Please join Gold Star Families for Peace members across the country in answering this call.

Sept 28th the Senate passed a bill allowing our government to TORTURE those they deem a threat to the US in our names. The Bill also suspended those detained the right to Habeas Corpus which means they have no right to appeal or question their detention. How soon before our government views those of us in the Peace Movement as enemies of the US. How soon before we are snatched from raliies and “detained”. It is time to take to the streets.Twelve Democrats voted for this torture bill S.3930. What makes us think if they take over either house they will then begin to do the right thing.

*How many more of these outrages do we accept?*

*We are mired in a war based on lies. We are slowly losing our civil liberties.*

We CANNOT wait for the elections to right this sinking ship. If you are silent, you are complicit…If you are complacent, you are complicit. We saw millions of Hispanic Americans take to the streets over the immigration issue. Why?..because they were personally impacted by that issue. What is happening to our country effects every man, woman and child. It effects every White, Hispanic, Asian, Black….it effects every Christian, Muslim, Jew….

*Please step up Oct 5th…NO WORK..NO SCHOOL…PROTEST IN THE STREETS*
