Iraq Veterans Against the War protest DNC

Iraq Veterans Against the War Lead Thousands in Protest March to Democratic Convention

Protests against the Democratic National Convention continued Wednesday as members of Iraq Veterans Against the War led an unpermitted march to the Pepsi Center to call on Barack Obama to back an immediate U.S. withdrawal from Iraq. The march began at a concert by the rock band Rage Against the Machine sponsored by IVAW and the Alliance for Real Democracy. Rick Rowley of Big Noise Films files a report from the streets.
No MSM attention yet again.The riot cops almost opened fire on these heroes.How would have people reacted to seeing police brutalyzing young men and women who fought for their country?
