Is Your Community Political Offices Ready For Future Takeovers?
Now, our local police departments must watchout for foreign terrorists as well as Women
for Peace.
The below piece is from the CODEPINK Website.
Occupation Project "Now is the time for seriously strategizing about the best ways, in our hometowns, to engage
in sustained civil disobedience at the offices of elected representatives, demanding that they vote against the supplemental
spending bill,” writes activist Kathy Kelly. Answering her call to action, dozens of Occupation Projects have sprouted
around the country. Click here join your local Occupation Project or grow your own project, and see photos of local action.
CODEPINK is one of the anti-war groups that marched in Washington
DC on March 17, 2007.

Maybe CODEPINK is involved with this vandalism.

Anti-war Vandals Hit Congressman's Office
Vandals upset over the Iraq war defaced U.S. Rep. Mike Rogers' office overnight, a
spokesman said Tuesday.
The unknown individuals splattered red paint on the Lansing, Mich. building and put up a sign saying
the Republican has "blood" on his hands. They also spray painted the sidewalk with the words "no more deaths," glued shut
the front door of the building and destroyed security cameras, said Andy Keiser, Rogers' chief of staff.
Sheriff's deputies were providing extra security at the Brighton home where Rogers lives with his
wife and two children, Keiser said.
"The aggressive destruction of federal property and vandalism was a callous attempt to intimidate
Congressman Rogers and his staff," he said in a statement. "We all are entitled to our own opinion on the situation in Iraq,
but we are not entitled to destruction of taxpayer property and intimidation of federal officials."
The FBI, U.S. Capitol police and Lansing police were investigating.
Rogers has supported President Bush's decision to pursue the war in Iraq four years ago but has
opposed Bush's recent plan to send extra troops to Baghdad.
