Free Speech- Use it or Lose it!

Ciaron O'Reilly, a defendant in the Pit Stop Ploughshares trial begining Monday in the Four Courts, will kick off an anti-war soapbox speaking this Sunday. Come and debate the issues of ongoing Irish complicity in the war on Iraq.

Ciaron got his start as a street speaker in the Brisbane free speech campaign of the early '80's (see link for pamphlet written at that time).......
