On Second Thought
The Berkeley, California city council was to consider a resolution Tuesday night rescinding its recent letter declaring that Marine Corps recruiters were — "uninvited and unwelcome intruders" — and asking them to leave. The backlash has been so fierce that two council members are sponsoring tonight's attempt to revoke the letter.
The resolution would draw a line between opposing the war in Iraq and what it calls — "our respect and support for serving in the armed forces."
CODEPINK and other anti-war folks were protesting all day outside City Hall. Pro-Marines demonstrators were also there. They are calling on the city to issue an apology, and rescind its free parking and noise permits for CODEPINK to protest outside the Marines office.
