Code Pink's "peaceful" Signs at Walter Reed-Heavy graphics

[Diva Betsy Ross]

These photos were taken by Freeper tgslTakoma,while with the DC Chapter of Freerepublic when they were counter protesting Code Pink. Code pink is protesting our wounded military heroes at Walter Reed hospital.

Code Pink is trying to whitewash the intent of their protests saying that they are at walter Reed for peaceful purposes.

Judge for yourself:

The irony pains me.

These soldiers are wounded so that these communists can speak.

If this offends anyone--Sorry, but the First Amendment applies to me.
The guy on the right appears to be from some Islamic country. Wonder if anyone has interviewed him?

Oh this one is great. "Workers and soldiers unite, but we aren't commies!"

what the hell is the " I want you" sign about?

[VeniVidiVici]

Recruiters lie... LOL!

My wife swears when she went in they promised her a Winnebago.

After 28 years of Active and Reserve duty, she's still waiting for it :-)

Here is one of those peaceful protesters now! Looks like she's all smiles as she waves her middle finger at the camera.

One of those signs says "28,000" injured. Where did they get that preposterous number from? According to the "Iraq Coalition Casualties" site, there have been less than 14,000 total wounded and over half of those returned to duty within 72 hours.

Here are the numbers:

Wounded (returned to duty within 72 hrs) - 7350
Wounded (not returned to duty within 72 hrs) - 6770

So there were 6770 who were wounded badly enough to not return within 72 hours. Some of those could be minor lacerations, sprained ankles, broken bones etc. that need more than 72 hours recovery but do not lead to permanent disability.

Their "28,000" sign is not only completely bogus, it erroneously doubles the actual total number of wounded, a number that already includes thousands who had the war equivalent of a paper cut.

Pretty mild. The local loonies are routinely worse.

It's worth it to check out this thread Freepers V. Code Pink July 8 Gael Murphy actually comes over and confronts the Freepers.

I think they are under reporting the number of their "freedom fighter" friends wounded...

Yep, my first thought was somebody better be checking visas. Maybe OBL sent him over to scout out new recruits (not said in jest).
