A local group demanding a halt to off-shore oil drilling in the wake of the BP oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico has a protest planned Saturday.
The protestors would like to see more research into alternative energy. Some even want nationalization of the oil/energy industry because the believe that would mean tighter regulation and profits for taxpayers.
If you agree, line up for one hour beginning at 11 a.m. Saturday at the BP Station at 33rd and Greenmount.
The same group held a picket line May 16 with about a dozen people. They said lots of people honked in support. They'd like you to bring signs that "express your outrage at corporate disregard for human life and the environment."
For more information call 410 308-1326 or 410 433-3269.
Anyone planning to go? Will you honk in protest of off-shore drilling?
