A protest, a picket, a pocket full of posies
So the Columbia Coalition Against the War (the War defined broadly at this point) is planning a picket of the main forum/speakout/thingy tomorrow. CCAW released another statement last night, reprinted after the jump, and is waiting on approval from the Dems for another consensus statement that’s expected to announce they’re all getting along again.
Also, it seems that the Republicans would have liked to stage a protest of their own on Furnald lawn, but couldn’t get cleared by security–meaning they had to submit to a 15 minute slot with the Columbia Coalition, just like everyone else. Chris Kulawik was spotted this morning on the Today Show as well, agreeing with SIPA Dean John Coatsworth, whom Fox, Youtube, and Drudge have made more famous than he’s ever imagined. Low Library, which typically doesn’t give Fox the time of day, must not be pleased.
Meanwhile, these guys are bringing at least 434 students–out of at least 8,000 invited–and estimates range as high as 10,000 people flooding the streets. The facebook groups and events are multiplying rapidly.
UPDATE: CCAW and the Dems have released their statement (added below) and all is right with the activisty world.
