Hmmmm…

Starting Monday afternoon, peace advocates say they will occupy U.S. Rep. Bud Cramer’s Pratt Avenue office one hour a week for two months.

It’s part of a nationwide effort to encourage Congress to halt future funding of the war in Iraq.

…

Protests are planned at 4 p.m. on every Monday in February and March, “assuming Cramer’s continued support for the war,” [local organizer Peter] Engstrom said.

Monday, the protest will include two anti-war advocates standing in Cramer’s Huntsville office, the first 20 minutes spent in silence, “in honor of Mohandas Gandhi.”

“Then they might sing or read a list of names of the war dead,” Engstrom said.

The group also has a permit to stand outside Cramer’s office during the time of the protest inside. There is no permit to stand inside, and Engstrom said there is the possibility of arrest during the nonviolent demonstration.
