They celebrated by demonstrating in front of Sen. Zell Miller's office last Friday at noon. They've been demonstrating for a year because they're pissed at Zell for supporting a wasteful "defense" policy that puts Americans in danger while ignoring economic and environmental concerns at home (yes, those quotation marks are sarcastic). None of the protesters mentioned it, but I'd bet they're also pissed off at Zell for pooh-poohing CBS's proposed hillbilly reality show.
Facing traffic at 14th and Peachtree, many of the demonstrators held up signs saying, "Honk for peace." The signs prompted an impressive amount of supportive honking to go along with the usual "you're a terrible driver and I hate you" honking that usually fills busy Atlanta intersections. I witnessed very little in the way of counter-protest -- except for one man with the moronic idea that people who haven't served in the military (like him) shouldn't protest military activities. Thanks for defending the Constitution, mister. How about reading it now?"
