It could even enter the public vocabulary permanently, as a day to honor a very American hero, and remember his work and principles.

It’s too late to use it for the demos tomorrow. But there could be another Manning Day planned for months ahead. It could be the anniversary of some relevant event.

The phrase has been used for at least one other day, but you can check that on Google.

Thanks for the other great tips — I’ll work them in.

Other groups to be considered are the tradtional peace churches, Friends, Brethern, Mennonites, etc., Also, Unitarian, Pax Christi and United Churches and other churches ‘social concerns’ committees.

The National Lawyers Guild has a good run down on your rights to petition your government for redress.[Protest] This one is for California, but it has much general applicability.

While the Guild is well represented in California and major metropolitan areas, pickings are real slim other places.

The ACLU, while is not as friendly to Bradley is very friendly to the Bill of Rights and are far more common than the NLG. They provide SOAW with legal help.
Here’s a brochure from them:

I know that it may be hard for you all to understand however, Quantico is merely housing Manning! The Army is the one who is placing the “Capital” as in “Death Penalty” eligible charges on Manning – Is any of this making sense to you folks? I’m sure that poor Bradley will find comfort in the fact that you were more concerned about his course blanket than the Capital Charges as he is marched toward the hangman’s noose!
