This trio had a sign saying "Justice not Torture" as they played some beautiful, mournful melodies in a subway station in New York. They were getting the attention of commuters in order to collect signatures to protest against the torture meted out to prisoners in Guantanamo, Abu Ghraib, Afghanistan and other secret detention facilities around the world.
Their handout read, "Holding anyone without charge....is a violation of the US constitution and international law."

That's a wonderful effort from them!
For every person commiting some evil somewhere there will always be someone somewhere being an awesome member of the human race.
Kudos to this people, the example they are setting is pervasive and does make this world a slightly prettier place. Amazing.

Putting it simply Govenment condoning kidnap?
Im sure this is happening here in England within the custody centers and asylam seekers detention centers , the govenment are not being so blatently obvious about it.
What the general populus does not know about they won't protest about.
Good on these chaps, making awarness of the situation.
