LAME ANTIWAR PROTEST UPDATE: Here’s another British blog report:
England’s Sword has some reports of the rather pitiful showing by the ‘peace’-protestors in London today. It wasn’t just London.
There was a peacenik demonstration next to the war memorial in the centre of Swindon this lunchtime: all of a dozen middle-aged protestors. So far, so normal. After all today was a work day. The amusing thing was that the demonstrators were outnumbered two to one by an ad hoc crowd of teenagers and young people who were jeering and heckling them, along with shouting out pro-war slogans. In fact the protestors chanting was drowned out despite their having a loud hailer.
Ah, the world turned upside down.
