‘RESIST WAR-MAKING,’ DESTRUCTION,
EX-GREEN PARTY NOMINEE DECLARES
Allwine lost bid for Md. State House
in 2010 to O’Malley, finished 3rd
The Green Party’s candidate for governor of Maryland in 2010 called for a “new culture of resistance in this country” at a town hall meeting held this week at Baltimore’s Cathedral of the Incarnation.
Maria Allwine, who lost her bid for governor last year to incumbent Martin O’Malley, finishing a distant third behind losing Republican candidate and former Gov. Robert L. Ehrlich Jr., encouraged a standing-room-only audience at the Episcopal cathedral on West University Parkway adjacent to Johns Hopkins University to “resist the war-making, the destruction” that she says is being wrongfully carried on by the U.S. Government.
“The establishment” doesn’t listen and “they ignore us,” Allwine charged, asking audience members to show up “in force” for a planned October 6 demonstration at Freedom Plaza in Washington D.C.
“We must resist what is going on in this country,” she said. “The most destructive country in the world, and it’s us….
“If we’re not out in force,” she added, “we’re really not out.”

Definitely believe that which you said. Your favorite reason seemed to be on the web the simplest thing to be aware of. I say to you, I definitely get irked while people consider worries that they just do not know about. You managed to hit the nail upon the top and defined out the whole thing without having side-effects , people could take a signal. Will likely be back to get more. Thanks
