Choose Peace!

Count the Ways...there are so many ways to choose peace!

For one, boycott, and divest from, harmful industries!

Go Friend!

Getcha Some!

Friend, that's my middle name!

This was at the 2010 Evergreen Graduation, see more information in the previous post!

I Declare Peace!

That's it! I have had enough of war. Peace only from here on. People need to stop putting each other down. People need to stop hurting each other. People need to stop hurting the planet and the ecosystems upon which we depend.

We are all part of one human family. We can choose love instead of hate. We have a choice. Peace, not war. Truth, not lies. Kindness, compassion, caring for the well-being of others, listening, and respecting and responding.

No more exploitation of people, nor of land. Peace only.

I Declare It!


Human Rights are for Everyone

Human Rights Are For Everyone: Cut the Military Budget

Weekly Friday evening peace vigil at Percival Landing

For most of the vigil I held a sign that read, "Human Rights Are for Everyone."

War is a Government Riot! (Mouseover)

War is a Government Riot!
(this is a mouseover - try it! move mouse over the image—be patient, sometimes it takes a minute for the secondary image to load!)

"Fighting for Peace is like Fucking for Virginity"

Olympia, Washington
Tuesday, December 15, 2009

I must admit that I am not a fan of this particular slogan. For one, I don't like the comparisons between fighting and "fucking", nor peace and virginity. For two, I think it isn't family friendly, nor particularly welcoming.

But I do like the photo, and the person holding the sign.

One thing is for sure, we need to end these wars - and we need to end all imperialism - for the sake of the well-being of all people.

Peace for All People

Peace for Children. Peace for Our Children. Peace for All Children.

Peace for All People.

All people deserve to live in peace.

The real vital national interest is peace - and not war.

The real vital national interest is to create mutually beneficial and cooperative economic structures - as opposed to the economics of domination, as opposed to policies of imperialism.

The real vital national interest is social justice and ecological sustainability - not exploitation - nor any other harmful economic activities, which cause so much, and so many, horrendous social and environmental degradations.

I believe that it is wrong for some people to personally "benefit" from activities that are socially and/or ecologically exploitative, abusive, or harmful in any other way.
