A young boy and his family typify a large following of Arabic sentiment against the war.
Capt. Wendy Rogers, TCC student, and her husband, Gary, are facing the challgenges of a spouse being deployed, leaving the husband at home. Capt. Rodgers has had to put her education on hold while she waits at Fort Hood for further orders.
The streets of downtown Dallas echo with the chants of more than a thousand war protesters and pro-war demonstrators last weekend near the Kennedy Memorial. With a city permit to march, the protesters were forced to confine themselves to the sidewalks and obey all street signs or risk being ticketed. The anti- and pro-war demonstrators met on Ross Street, exchanging verbal sentiments, but no incidents of violence occurred. A stage was erected in front of the old courthouse for several speakers and musical groups. Sentiments ranged from support for U.S. troops to insults directed toward George W. Bush.
