Clevelanders say NO to Torture: Oct 17
**download and distribute flier**

Yesterday, about 16 people protested at noon in front of the Federal Building in downtown Cleveland, just a few hours after Bush signed into law of the Military Commissions Act of 2006.

Almost everyone wore orange. A couple people wore the orange jumpsuits that detainees wear in Guantanamo. The bullhorn was passed from hand to hand, with different people speaking about what the torture law is about, and expressing their outrage.


We then marched to the office of Ohio Senator Mike DeWine, who voted for the torture bill. Along the way, we handed out WCW fliers and got lots of honks from the downtown traffic.
