DESCRIPTION:PROTEST  AT PLEASANT HILL MILITARY RECRUITMENT CENTER\nIn solidarity with 
 Berkeley protesters, Contra Costa youth hold their own protest against 
 military recruitment\n\nIn solidarity with the recent protests at the 
 Berkeley Military recruitment center, and in hopes of publicizing 
 Saturday’s anti-war march in Walnut Creek, a group of local youth will be 
 holding a protest at the military recruitment center located at 712 Contra 
 Costa Blvd # B, Pleasant Hill, CA. the protest will begin at 2pm on 
 Wednesday the 12th of March. \n\nThe protesters hope to show that Berkeley 
 is not an isolated city. Even in the more conservative Contra Costa County 
 there is strong opposition to the war and military recruitment of youth, 
 especially those coming from lower income families. Many of the protesters 
 are students of local high schools and Diablo Valley College, and have 
 often been approached by recruitment officers themselves. This protest is a 
 rejection of war by the local youth who are themselves the target of 
 military recruitment. Not only is it the youth who are fighting and dying 
 in Iraq, it is the youth who have to suffer budget cuts to their school 
 systems due to an ever growing amount of money being spent on war. \n\nThe 
 protesters also hope to bring publicity to an anti-war march being held in 
 Walnut Creek this Saturday, 11:00am the 15th of March. This anti-war march 
 is being organized by a group of local anti-war groups, including the Mount 
 Diablo Peace and Justice Center, the Lamorinda Peace and Justice Group, and 
 Grandparents for Peace.\n\nFor more information on military recruitment see
