The Hypocrisy of Peace Protests

Thousands of protesters had gathered. Perhaps with enough people protesting, the leaders of the world would finally acknowledge that war never solved anything.

As they made their way down Main Street, someone began chanting, "Love your fellow man," and the thousands soon followed. None seemed to think that the hundreds of signs comparing Bush to Hitler violated the maxim they shouted. No. He was not worthy of love.

The police began to disperse the crowds. This protest was too important to allow that to happen. The protesters lashed out in righteous anger against the riot police in the name of peace.
