The "April Days" included events in dozens of cities nationwide, as well as a range of ways for people to participate wherever they are.

GRATITUDE: April Days - A Nationwide Antiwar Campaign of Unprecedented Scope
Look. War is evil. So nobody should ever attack or harm any one. Period. Now. What are you prepared to do, when, in fact, some idiot or idiot group attacks you? Right then, you NEED to know. What will you do? Kneel down and take the bullet or whatever? Let your family be murdered? Some of you will make such choices. But DO NOT EXPECT the United States Government to make such choices. Most of us will ACT DECISIVELY to stop terrorists from killing others. The Government must act decisively. Oh, I see. You like the pre-drone days! You will be happy to go back to napalm, white phosphorous, block busters, and carpet bombing! Yes. This is what you want. Because you call it "conventional warfare," and while you hate warfare if it MUST be war, then let it be "only" "conventional war" not ugly drone warfare. After all, drones kill a few innocent people by accident. "Conventional " bombing kills thousands of innocent people because it is essentially indiscriminate. You SMART PERSON YOU! Let's stop the drones and murder thousands more! Drones are very picky about whom they kill. They TRY to avoid civilian deaths. But not you! You like "conventional bombing" like we used to have before all these nasty "robot drones" came along and killed a very few innocents. You’re so bright! Stop drones now! Get back to "conventional bombing" at once.
