Semi off-topic, but you wouldn't happen to know the name of that righteous marching band in the video, do you? I just love a good public bunch of musicians who are not afraid to take a stand on something.
No problem I had some trouble before I finally got to stay in a safe country in the simulation but I couldn't send my parent over here and the violence got worse. Accordingly 90% of applications to have family sent over with you is rejected. Unfortunately I don't know who the band was but I'll try and look for you: They're called the Riff Raff Radical Marching Band! Riff Raff Radical Marching Band | Facebook

I wasn't able to take part in any rallies, but good for you for doing so, Pali.
Thank you so much Tsmuke, the refugees need all the support they can get. If we can all band together we should be able to do something about their horrific treatment.

Here's a different look on that event. Socialist Alternative - Refugees have a right to resist Remember, you're only looking at lone side of the story that the media has given to you. Best thing do do is look at both left wing and conservative media on the same event and make a decision.

Here's more recent articles:
