Subject: [internationalsocialists] SF College Not Combat Ballot Prop Wins!
The votes are in! With 100% of precincts reporting, the San Francisco
College Not Combat Ballot Measure (Prop i)
Francisco now officially opposes military
recruitment in high schools, colleges, and universities!
This is a significant victory for the counter-recruitment movement that we
hope will spark similar local resolutions across the country in addition to
boosting the confidence of counter-recruitment activists.

"I've never heard of a nonviolent revolution or a revolution that was
brought about by turning the other cheek,
and so I believe that it is a crime for anyone to teach a person who is
being brutalized to continue to accept
that brutality without doing something to defend himself."
