 RISE UP RALLY:  The People's Verdict 

6th & University Ave, Hillcrest

About 60 people converged on 6th and University to celebrate the truth of Manning's courageous and honorable intentions being the final verdict of their court marshall. But we also rallied against the injustice this trial actually is and the crime of Manning doing any jail time for exposing the criminal acts of his superiors. The event consisted of members from CFAC, SAME, Occupy, the ISO, SDCPJ, SD Green Party, WOSD, IWW, KNSJ, ASD, and of course the San Diego Coalition to Free Manning.
