NYC Port Authority Terminal, November 25, 2011

Returning from a bus trip, I walked passed a man with a machine gun outside of a “bakery” (pastry-type cafe). I walked up to him and asked why was he outside of a bakery with a machine gun. His only reply was “9/11.”
The Department of Defense spent and spends how many Billion$ (and Rumsfeld admitting he could not account for $2.3TRILLION on September 10, 2001) that did not prevent the September 11 attacks and this man with a machine gun is outside of a pastry shop telling me it's because of 9/11.
Is insane the “new normal?”
Many weeks ago I was given a flyer at Liberty Plaza by someone from the War Resisters League that had many links about war tax boycotting:
+ Wartaxboycott.org
+ 3o minute documentary “Death & Taxes”
+ National War Tax Resistance Coordinating Committee
+ Peacetaxfund.org
+ IAVA.org
+ girightshotline.org (877) 447-4487 for military who refuse to fight

|Also on the flyer:
+ Defundwar.org
+ Newprioritiesnetwork.org
+ mfso.org (true cost of war)
