I'm printing picts of Dead Iraqis to hand out March 19
I'm mad as hell at Mr.bush and his minions and his total bs and media/mind control crap. I'm printing pictures of dead people in Iraq and wounded soldiers to hand out on the 2 yr Iraq invasion anniversary. If the media won't show it, I will.

Extra pictures to be put up wherever I can with "support our troops, bring them home how" printed on them.

1. It's a good idea, but be prepared for backlash
People don't mind going to rotten dot com to see dead folks in private, but they don't want to admit how horrid they are in public.

You're doing the right thing, though. :thumbsup:

2. I have a thick skin, that's why, to show people
I am sooo tired or "reality tv" and people ignoring what is truly real. Time they see it. If I can change a few people's minds about war by showing them war reality, I can put up with being called bad names. I'm not afraid of physical violence against me, though doubt it would come to that. Embarresment? Fine. Loss of business (work)? Unlikely but ok. Enlightentment? Good. I have heard unthinking crap from the most unlikely sources about war and this invasion, time to get out there in their faces.

Maybe get media coverage.

4. Good the Iraqi civilians
and the soldiers deserve to be remembered.
You are brave and I respect you for your actions.
Be prepared for the reactions of the ignorant, though.

5. A little girl who was gutshot and died from a "shot fired into the air."

The report, titled "Iraq: Killings of Civilians in Basra and Al-Amara," also criticized UK authorities for failing to conduct investigations into the killings of civilians, citing the case of the death of 8-year-old Hanan Saleh Matrud last August near Basra as an example. Saleh stood with other children about 70 meters from a British armored vehicle that stopped near the entrance of the alley which leads to her home. According to eyewitness Mizher Jaber Yassin, a soldier aimed and fired a shot which hit Hanan in her lower torso. She died the following day.
