My Dad, The Unlikely Protester

[K8-EEE]

My dad, who is in his early 70s, retired in an affluent neighborhood, and an Air Force vet, has been holding anti-war signs at the corner of Laurel Canyon & Ventura Blvd. in Studio City, CA since the first bomb dropped in Baghdad.

He's a retired aerospace engineer & patent attorney and maybe doesn't fit the stereotype of what a lot people consider an activist, but I am so proud of him. He is honestly horrified at what BushCo is getting away with and wants to help get the word out.

Any locals in the vicinity, give a honk to my dad on Friday! I love you Dad!

1. You've got a cool Dad! My props to him.

He can see through the bullshit and think on his own.
If my dad were alive he'd be doing the same.

yours, RE: BushCo, but I could never imagine mine protesting like that! Good for him!:thumbsup:

community (47th & Broadway) salutes him.

Hare bo!
