Free Speech.

Last Saturday, Deaddrifts personnel found themselves at Herb David Guitar Studio, on Liberty Street in Ann Arbor. We witnessed Ann Arbor's protest march against the War in Iraq. It looked like it was attended by about three hundred persons, with sentiments ranging from the sincere ("We support our troops - bring them home") to the stupid ("Bush's Plan: Start Killing, then Drilling"). And of course the "No Wars for Israel" flatheads. The First Amendment in full display. Just one complaint: please don't have little kids (the under eight crowd) march and hold signs for a political expression they can't possibly fathom.
