May day in Santa Ana was sunny and nice. About 500 people turned out for the mile march to the Santa Ana recruiting station, where about 150 people stayed for music and fun in the sun. It is safe to say that on this international workers day, this particular station did not find anyone to fight corporate America’s war. Further, during one communication with a guard, he told us in confidence that he did not believe in the war; I feel sorry for this young man and hope we are successful before he is sent over. Though many conservatives claim that they are supporting the troops, we are the only ones fighting to save their lives. We will continue that fight, and I hope you can join us in New York City to bring the struggle to the feet of the republicans from August 27 to September 4 of this year (2004). Keep the struggle alive……
