From FOX News, unfortunately:

Code Pink members unfurled a pink banner reading “Troops Home Now” and waved signs as they began the protest, which they promised would include incantations and pointy hats for a “witches, crones and sirens” day.

“Women are coming to cast spells and do rituals and to impart wisdom to figure out how we’re going to end war,” Zanne Sam Joi of Bay Area Code Pink told FOXNews.com.

Members of the pro-troops group Move Forward America came armed with packages of salt, which they spread around the recruiting station to keep the Marines safe from spells. The group’s Web site implored members to bring brooms to “mock the anti-American witches of Code Pink.”

Police kept guard outside the recruiting station to keep the peace.

For several months, Code Pink has been protesting outside San Francisco’s Marine recruiting centre. The group is made up of women of all ages, and includes a “grandmother” brigade.
