Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere
Peace activist Cindy Sheehan is running for Congress in San Francisco against Nancy Pelosi. In her latest blog entry, she describes the purpose of her recent trip to Egypt. She writes: "How do these military tribunals in Egypt and Guantanamo affect us here in the US? Americans always receive fair and equal treatment under the law, right? Wrong! Madam Justice’s fabled scales are heavily weighted to benefit the wealthy or the established ruling class. Ask any person of color or poor citizen here how the American justice system works for them. There is no place for secrecy or suppression of dissent in any free, open or democratic society. In allowing these military tribunals to continue the very cornerstone of human rights is being shattered." Cindy Sheehan will join Cynthia McKinney and CodePink today at 1 pm today at the Market and Powell Street cable car turnaround in San Francisco to "pink slip" Dick Cheney. http://volunteerforchange.org/e/1187?refcode=o23
