Recruiter Station Shut Down / Agustin AguayoPepperspray Productions "Indymedia Presents": #242
Recruiter station shut down. Yes its true. Sometimes we win. In this
case a demonstration, led by Iraq Vets Against the War (IVAW), marching
by the military recruiter stations in the Central District of Seattle
diverted into the parking lot and forced the recruiters to close the
office. Even more amazing, the outnumbered police decided to defuse the
situation by removing their forces from in front of the recruiter's
storefront. Its worth watching just to see the look of puzzlement on a
reporter's face when the police, who moments before were brandishing
pepperspray, abruptly abandon the recruiter station. This action
footage is set to David Rovic's powerful song "We'll shut them down."

Next we feature an interview and a couple rap pieces performed by Son,
who was in the Seattle area to support Lt. Watada. This is a powerful
political rapster, worth checking out, both on the show this week, and
on his website:...
