In their own words

An inside look at what goes on in the People’s Republic of Berkeley (regarding Berkeley’s war against the Marines):

“This isn’t about the Marine recruiters’ free speech; they have billions of dollars with which to lie to youth.” – World Can’t Wait youth organizer Giovanni Jackson, 26, of Berkeley.

“The citizens’ speech has already been repressed when the Marines moved into Berkeley without asking us.” – attorney Sharon Adams, author of a zoning-code amendment initiative that would restrict the location of military recruitment centers

More on Berkeley High School’s participation in the protests from the San Jose Mercury News:
