In a just world, Peter Pace would be considered a war criminal.

To add insult to injury, General Pace is an outspoken homophobe. Shortly before the 4th anniversary of the Iraq invasion, he gave a lengthy interview with the Chicago Tribune in which he justified the ban on gays and lesbians in the military by calling us "immoral." One doesn't have to be a war supporter to realize that an employment ban on gays is as immoral as the segregation of African Americans in the military two generations ago.

Please join us in planning an appropriate "welcome" for Pace's May 18th visit to Chicago. All who are interested in helping organize a protest are invited to attend an open planning meeting:

7 PM this Friday, April 13
Ann Sather's Restaurant
929 W. Belmont Avenue, Chicago
(1/4 block east of the Red Line "Belmont" stop, free parking in the rear)

So that we can know how many to expect, please email LGBTliberation (at) aol.com by 9 PM Thursday, April 12th if you plan on attending.
