On April 28, activists across the country were called upon to display impeach signs (see: http://www.a28.org/). In Southern California, there were community demonstrations in Eagle Rock, South Pasadena (put on by South Pasadena Neighbors for Peace and Justice), North Hollywood, Long Beach, and Ventura. There was also plans for an airplane to fly a banner calling for impeachment from Malibu to Dana Point.
In Eagle Rock, the Northeast LA Radical Neighbors made impeachment the focus of their weekly Saturday vigil. On this special occasion, people came from nearby and far parts of the county, to participate. One organizer counted 28-30 demonstrators. In one case, a passerby stopped and joined in. Several people held an impeach banner, about 12 feet in length, made by local activist Mary Jacobs. Others held custom-made impeach signs.
Some signs called for the impeachment of the current White House occupants, while at least one other called to "impeach the corporate empire."
The reaction from passersby was said to be very positive.
A high turnout was also reported by a participant of the South Pasadena demonstration.
Demonstrators stood on two corners of the street.
With a government that is riddled with corruption, drugs, murders, a bureaucracy whose top leaders are fit to have their or IT's throat slit, and you think impeaching Bush is going to change things?
Please, we are in an American Holocaust. Everyday many of us pray for the end of this planet. It is our prison.
Wake up. Never again trust or serve the regime. Applaud when they are attacked but do not expect change.
This is a different kind of war. We are as blind as bats, except for the pain.
Applaud when the global war erupts. The nation of the Beast is the USA, as denoted in the religious texts. But the beast stretches far and wide.
Read of my American Holocaust story at Mobile Audit Club. BTW, lay off the junk food, eat more rice and chicken or tofu and veggies..
I agree that impeaching Cheney/Bush won't solve our fundamentally-flawed "civilization." The real enemy is civilization itself. (That's why some of us hold signs that read "Impeach the corporate empire.")
I think impeachment is worth pursuing as a short-term goal (relatively speaking) because the world could use some justice right now, and it would send a strong message to the rest of the world.
However, on a daily basis, I devote most of my energy to finding ways of living outside our pathological society.
