Jodie Evans, a cofounder of Code Pink and a yoga studio owner, says they'd like to put the measure on a ballot anyways, so, there.  Hey, maybe they can combine that with the <a href="http://sfist.com/2008/01/29/give_the_peace.php">Peace Center</a> and Berkeley will shoot off holographic images into the air, something we're sure, many in Berkeley would get off on, especially if it was done to Floyd.  Anyways, you can read a live blog of the protest  <a href="http://www.mercurynews.com/ci_8240354?source=most_viewed">here</a>, including details of dueling radios consisting of one side blasting the National Anthem and the other Culture Club’s "The War Song."  No, we’re just joking, they blasted Buffalo Springfield's "For What It's Worth" and, wait for it--  Bob Dylan's "The Times They Are A-Changin',"  Jesus, aren't there any songs they can play that isn't over 40 years old? There's gotta be at least five Rage Against the Machine songs they could have played and they friggin' rock.  Or, hell, Black Sabbath's "War Pigs."  Come on everybody: "Generals gathered in their masses/Just like witches at black masses/Evil minds that plot destruction/Sorcerers of deaths construction."</p>]]></content:encoded></item></channel></rss>
