The Dallas Morning News, in its typical biased, one-sided, distored, agenda-based reporting, posted the following on their web site: ExxonMobil shareholders dodge protesters

Not a word about the pro-Exxon protesters which out numbered the anti-Exxon protesters by 3 to 1. The picture shown was taken from our side.

NOTE: You must register to use their web site. Its free, which is more of an indication of what it's worth.

The local Fox affiliate did a better job:

Groups Protest Outside ExxonMobil Shareholders Meeting

There is a video clip too, but I couldn't view it with anything I have on my laptop.

Interesting that the Exxon stockholders repeatedly thanked our side for "being there to support them." Also, "suits" kept stepping outside and ordering the police to allow OUR SIDE to stay close to the entrance as a buffer between them and the rabble hippies who were kept across the street!

It was GREAT to be able to participate yesterday and today... Many of us were itching to make a little visit to "college jail" last night when the campus police threatened to arrest us for trying to walk quietly on the sidewalk outside the Kangaroo Court.

(BTW, the lady with the report on that fiasco is not online, so her text will have to wait for transmission..)

COB, we really really missed you! We waited till 8:55 and our driver HAD to leave to join the caravan. We were hoping you'd go ahead and drive up anyway. :-( You missed a great time, very little sleep, and hoarse voices, LOL!

WHAT A BALL - OUTNUMBERING THE ECO-FASCISTS!!

(And MAF was cool as a cucumber! Clearly leadership qualities!! I'm proud to know her!)

**AND NOTE TO LIBS WHO WANT TO QUOTE ANYTHING OFF FR... WE ARE WATCHING SO DO NOT MISREPRESENT US, OK?**

(Last time I posted an after action, a Houston Press reporter "added" some comments and attributed them to me in his article - causing some criticism from FReepers for my "crude language," when that article was posted here. It better never happen again because I have my lawyer on speed-dial!)

TEXAS FREEPERS ARE THE GREATEST.... TIRED, BUT ABSOLUTELY THE GREATEST!

This is so typical of the media, which is one reason I'll never believe their lame defense that they are not bias! When you see it first hand, it burns into your memory!
