Antiwar Update


As expected, I was not able to go to the peace rally and march, earlier today.  However, two local Flickrites have already posted photos.  Argusmaniac has a set here.  Peter Honeyman has a few also.  [UPDATE] Bob Goodsell has a couple of photos on his blog, too.  [UPDATE] More Flickr photos by Jacques Strappe and Boston Fan in Michigan.

In non-local news, King of Zembla has posted about the Pentagon's practice of sending troops back into combat after treatment for depression and/or anxiety disorders.  I would take that as a sign of desperation.  The article says that the troops involved often are eager to go back.  That may be so, but I can't help but think that it is a really bad idea to send them back.
