400 people marched in Limerick today starting at 2pm from Penneys, up O'Connell St, down Henry St. to a rally at Arthurs Quay Park before returning to O'Connell St. where a twenty minute sit down protest took place. The rally in the park was addressed by Joe Sheehan & Katherine Harford from organisers MAMA, Cllr. John Gilligan(IND), Ron Byrne(Socialist Party), Jan O'Sullivan T.D. (Labour), Pauric Malone(Sinn Féin), Mark Deane (Youth against War), Tim Hourigan(Shannon Peace Camp) and Tracey Ryan (gluaiseacht). Not all of the speakers participated in the sit down;-) The Guards didn't interfere with the sit down which attracted first amusement and then support from the shoppers and people in town for the day who came upon it. Eoin Ó Broin SU president at UL lead "give peace a chance" at the sit in accompanied by reknowned Clare Djembe teacher John Bowker. There was a large enthusiastic showing from the

lots of locals got to see and join in.
sit down looked good.

Noticed cops didn't look too interested in breaking it up when there was over 100 people, moms and kids - and probably local voters blocking O'Connell Street.
A lot of the locals looked confused.
You'll have to do a few more of these before they cotton on to the idea.

Good stuff out of everyone. I´d be there in my millions if I could. Over here, Peru, a country against the war, the papers are telling it like it is. A campaign of terror by the big ol bastards. I assume the same can´t be said of the press coverage at home in Ireland.
