SF War Protest

Thursday, March 20th, 2008 · 5 Comments

Although I had a pretty crazy day yesterday and, unfortunately, didn’t make it to the local anti-war demonstration here in Saratoga to mark 5 years in Iraq, I did take a look at some of the photos from yesterday’s protests in San Francisco:

Looking at the photos brought back memories of living in San Francisco and going to similar anti-Iraq war protests, as we did more than 5 years ago to protest the start of the war, as in this photo of us from February 16, 2003:

How come I look so young and strange, but Jen still looks as great then as she does now?

    that’s a pretty funny photo – where did you unearth that?? why do we look like we are at a street fair instead of protesting the start of the war? why do i look like i just ate a funnel cake? where’s the outrage??!!

    good point, jen! we should be outraged and mad, not smiling that the war was about to start. but alas, we were young and inexperienced protesters. had we been there this week, i would hope we would’ve been dragged away screaming and kicking to jail!
