Ask Your Friends to Support the Holy Name 6

Support the "Catholic Schoolgirls Against the War" On Easter Sunday, March 23, six young people disrupted mass at the Holy Name Cathedral to protest the sixth year of the Iraq war. As Cardinal George started his homily, six well-dressed young people in the congregation stood up. One loudly said, “The sixth commandment says, 'thou shall not kill.'” George stopped speaking as all eyes turned to the protesters. "Yet more than a million Iraqis have been killed since the invasion of Iraq," said a second protester. The six were immediately removed from the church, arrested, and held for felony charges of battery and destruction of property. They were released on up to $30,000 bond, and could face up to 5 years in prison.
