I am not some Kumbaya-hippie-liberal but holy ****, some of you sure are nonchalant about some of the sleazier CIA operations overseas. "I don't care what happens to someone else as long as it 'protects' me". You may not be concerned about foreigners abroad who are 'different' than you, but the CIA has been known to conduct operations on US citizens as well.

Looks more like 20 at most, at least from the photographs. Pity no one took a panoramic photograph so the "close to 200" claim could be verified.
I guess you did not bother to look at any of the other pics at my site, I guess it is easier just to run your mouth or you would have seen around 80 or so people in a panoramic view while others stood behind them in clusters listening to speakers or to musicians or just talking among themselves.
There were other people that came early and left early and those that came late so yes there were well over a hundred but less than 200 as I mentioned.
Unlike the past two protest we had at the CIA where we were allowed to really spread out and go into the medium of the highway we were limited this week where we were allowed to go.
The CIA has an ever expanding roll in drone strikes so we are protesting there.
I have been to many protest on Capital Hill and the White House and while it is very symbolic to protest at the White House you get a lot more exposer with car traffic than you do with a handful of tourists taking pictures of each other in front of the White House. How often does anyone from NOVA ever go to the White House, I bet most people that have lived here for years have not been to the White House in years.
But the CIA isn't in charge of approving kill lists or ordering drone strikes, they just press the button.
It's like protesting against bullets instead of guy shooting the gun. RAH RAH DOWN WITH BULLETS! BULLETS ARE KILLING PEOPLE AND IT MUST STOP.
Obama is the one shooting the gun, but we can't protest against him 'cause that would be racist.
Yeah, but shouldn't the decision maker bear the greater burden then the drones (literal and figurative drones)?
