DC SECRET SERVICE COMES DOWN HARD ON VFP PREXY/VEGGIE TOSSER

Veterans For Peace, United for Peace and Justice (UFPJ), and other peace groups and activists have been protecting the Venezuelan Embassy in DC from a take over by Right Wing overthrow President Nicholas Maduro advocates. The Secret Service, predictably, has been on the scene to maintain the peace.

Our National President, Gerry Condon, a leader of the protective delegation joined with others to deliver food to embassy workers in light of their being fully isolated inside the embassy by the US government. When he was blocked from delivering food by right wingers, Gerry tossed a cucumber to an embassy worker through an open window. This activated an immediate, forceful, and injurious response, taking Gerry to the ground and blooding his face.

This tension is escalating. Please read about this incident here and take action as you see fit.
