Afghanistan protest in Fremont

A group of approximately 150- 200 protesters gathered at Bill Ball Plaza Saturday, March 17, in the Centerville district of Fremont to mourn the loss of 16 civilians killed in an inexplicable rampage by a US Army Staff Sgt. Robert Bales.

Peaceful prayers and speeches as well as placards and chants to passing motorists exhibited a variety of emotions about the toll of war in Afghanistan; a sign that read, "Enough Is Enough" was indicative of the crowd's mood.
