Wednesdays on Shattuck
Recently the Berkeley College Republicans and the staff of the California Patriot have been holding demonstrations next to the Marine recruiting center on Shattuck.
Since Code Pink is out in force on Wednesdays with the help of their free parking spot, BCR members have been meeting downtown to support the Marines and their presence in Berkeley.
It is a fun atmosphere, with singing of God Bless America and the Marines’ Hymn along with various chants. Our side would chant “Hell no, the Marines won’t go,” while the other side (with their megaphone) would say things like “1, 2, 3, 4, we don’t want this stinking war, 2, 3, 4, 5 bring our soldiers home alive.” Sometimes the pro-Marine people even outnumber the crazies of Code Pink.
Even if there is rain, we will be out there to support the Marines. Stop by and show your support tomorrow at noon or any other Wednesday. There will be a few flags and signs, but bring any you might have.
