Not to worry, the Posting Police will bring wrath down around your shoulders if they find anything remotely the same as your post.

I also would hope this is factual. Americans do care.

It was on my local news show, so sorry I have no pictures.

But they did say that there are 2,500, and growing, of them at this point across the nationn ready to go to funerals of our nations fallen heros to shield the families from anti-war socialist scum.

Some of the guys in the pictures looked fairly large, as in don't mess with me large!

Any contact information that anyone has would be welcome to the thread.

It is factual and I have posted hundreds of posts here and only a couple of ever been deleted, so I trust the mods to do the right thing.

Thank you, Harley bikers. This is wonderful for the families.

Can this day get any better? W slaps down reporters and RATS, Arnie says the ring is in the mail, Joshua gets appreciation cards, and now this.

HOG groups are generally made up of a large # of vets, so I am not surprised. My father-in-law who is now passed on was a vietnam vet and a member of HOG. They were always driving off to one thing or another to do some good. I could definately see the men and women that were in his group do this.

I will go back to the nes station and see if they play the segment again, they usually do and see if they list any contact information for the group.

My guess is you can call any local Harley store and ask for the number of the head of the local Harley Owners Group and he can put someting together from his members.

Hey tonk, wake up your ping lists!

Sally, I am in Tahlequah, but the nes channel is in Tulsa, so I am guessing there is a chapter there.

Also, I knew a woman that had a full dressed hog and she weighed in at about 98 pounds. Go for it.

YEAH BABY!!! WOOOHOOOO!!!!

These guys go and get between the family members and the traitors and when the traitors raise their voices, the bikers rev their engines!! Freedom of noise, baby!! It's rather loud I'd imagine, and it's a shame they are needed, but I'm sure the family prefers the sound of a Harley to the cries of the morons!! I know I would.

ROFL!!! To him, that would be the ultimate insult. It sucks that the way this guy supports himself is that he waits for someone to give him what he deserves so he can sue. The funny thing is, he says that our soldiers dying is God's retribution for us allowing homosexuality. But he just didn't seem to see God's justice when his church was firebombed. I'm thinking God was telling him to STFU and he didn't get the message!

From their website:

Patriot Guard Riders Mission Statement

The Patriot Guard Riders is a diverse amalgamation of riders from across the nation. We have one thing in common besides motorcycles. We have an unwavering respect for those who risk their very lives for America’s freedom and security. If you share this respect, please join us.

We don’t care what you ride, what your political views are, or whether you’re a "hawk" or a "dove". It is not a requirement that you be a veteran. It doesn't matter where you’re from or what your income is. You don’t even have to ride. The only prerequisite is Respect.

Our main mission is to attend the funeral services of fallen American heroes as invited guests of the family. Each mission we undertake has two basic objectives.

1. Show our sincere respect for our fallen heroes, their families, and their communities.

2. Protect the mourning family and friends from interruptions created by any protestor or group of protestors.

We accomplish the latter through strictly legal and non-violent means.

Admin mods, you may want to edit the title as this is a NATIONAL group and an national effort.

And it would be a good idea to include it on the sidebar so Freepers can find it in the future.

Just recieved this freepmail from a freeper, hope they don't mind me posting it here too!

thank you.

You just don't know how it feels until it hits your home town...make that home village of 200-250 primarily retired farm folks, MANY of whom are vets (& hunters).

I really didn't know what to expect & couldn't attend the funeral. Typical of the area, the school dist includes outlying farm families so the school population is higher than "town" people.

200 of the good guys on bikes came to the funeral (KS) to stand between the family, friends & classmates & Phelps.

If you want me to get a contact # for the guys in KS who rode in I can try when I head home in a couple of days.

Well I must say, I did not read your posts. Third party posts are most usually personal and off topic by people that have little to add to content of the original.

You and others do have one small attribute to your credit, namely, your postings have kept a worthwhile post alive so I am sure the original poster is appreciative.
