Introverted Quaker Slacktivist

What did I do today? Drive the kids to school. Drive to work. Work. Drive home. Hang out with friends.

Look at photos online of the many nonviolent direct actions in San Francisco today aimed at stopping the US war against... no, that's not right... occupying Iraq? Well, kind of. Let's just call it a war within Iraq.

There was a die-in outside Sen. Dianne Feinstein's office. A group dressed as Abu Ghraib prisoners occupied the intersection nearby, dressed in hoods and orange jumpsuits.

An aged Daniel Ellsberg was arrested at the die-in. And is this what "safety" at home means?
