South Korean activists Saturday promised to draw one million protesters nationwide in the biggest anti-US beef rallies so far, warning they would use young Christians as "human shields" against riot police.

An umbrella grouping of activists, the People's Association for Measures against Mad Cow Disease, called for protesters to bring their children and dogs.

At least 1,000 people, including young Christians, will serve as "human shields" to separate the protesters from riot police, it said.

Hopefully a lot of young, ignorant Christians will get their heads bashed tonight. Then, if all goes well, the cowards that are behind them will get what they have coming.

That would be the one-sided korean media- that is apparently able to whip up an entire nation(!) into a frenzy of insanity with emotive and obviously false misreporting.

If I worked for KBS I'd send out a news report that it was safe to jump of cliffs.

It's over. They lost. The beef is here.

Yum. Yum.

I personally am hoping for a blow to the young Christian population, which I think could only be good for me...fewer missionaries means less knocks on the door at 9 am on Saturday. I hope Jesus keeps leaving me the occasional candy or stick of gum though...Jesus rocks like that.
