This group has been standing weekly for peace in New Paltz, New York for the past 6 years. We are part of the world wide movement of Women in Black- tens of thousands of women taking to the streets to say no to militarism, war and violence in all its forms. We believe we all have the power and responsibility to create a world of justice and peace.
I have to laugh- someone a few posts ago said WIB was preaching to the choir in the peaceingest place in the nation- but obviously quite a few here are not in a very peaceful place! WIB continues to stand against two wars that have killed thousands and bankrupted us financially and morally. We support our troops and have raised money for them- many of them are now leading the antiwar movement. They know the lies that come with war. Btw, it is a public street corner

LMAO ! This reminds me of when I was a teenager - naive children with no concept of the evil that exists in the world - these are the same people who cheered Neville Chamberlain
All we are saying is ... protest where evil exists not good
I asked these questions when I was 10 - why cant we just get along - ask yourself this - I am sure every one of Jeffrey Dommers victims tried to talk to him - if you had a gun and he was about to kill your child would you shoot?

In response to some of the comments here. They are still standing there even after Obama has been elected president. Personally, while I don't agree with all of their points, I do admire their commitment to their personal values.
