Hope lots of people go to the 8th Annual Rally in the Valley and join at least one group there. Take back the Central Valley from the Good ol' Racist, Sexist, Corrupt, Egotistical, Ignorant, Arrogant Boys.
Nice to see they spying, harassment, illegal arrests, hate mongering by KMJ and city officials has slowed Peace Fresno down.
Like Ghandi said: First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win.
Peace Fresno and the other incredible progressive and social justice groups in the Central Valley have WON
