Berkeley Supports Armed Forces
BERKELEY, Calif. — City councilmembers who were criticized for telling Marine recruiters they don't belong in Berkeley are moderating their position. They now say they oppose the war in Iraq but support the troops.
"Oh, yasss! We're having it both ways! It's like a weekend in a San Francisco Motel 6!"
Berkeley's City Council voted two weeks ago to send a letter to a downtown recruiting station advising the Marines they were not welcome. In a session that stretched into early Wednesday, the council said they recognize recruiters' right to be in Berkeley. The council reiterated its opposition to the war but said, "We deeply respect and support the men and women in our armed forces."
"No matter how many babies they kill!"
The meeting drew hundreds of people on both sides of the issue who rallied all day and into the night outside City Hall.
