Fort Collins, Colorado. The local Center For Peace and Justice members marched to downtown Fort Collins carrying empty boxes to rally against the war. Marching in front of them were a bunch of FReepers........
Are you sure you guys/dolls aren't "Lurker Protest Warriors"?
You did FReeRepublic good in CO. In fact, all over the U.S., we all did FR good. A BIG pat on the back to everyone!!
FYI: Over here in D.C., some of us when rehabing our signs, have been replacing some of the 'Support' words with 'Honor'. Too many of the liberals and moonbats say they "support" the troops. That word is being cheapened by them so honor differentiates us. But we still keep 'Support", because we really do.
Again, THANKS to all.

"The really, really, important kind of people who are too lazy to do anything like this themselves to support our troops, but will instead sit on their big fat butts at home, picking apart the punctuation of the people doing all the work."
You, of course, have no friggin' idea at all what I do in and for my own community. And I won't bother telling you because I have no need to defend myself.
I'm sorry you don't believe correct grammar, spelling and punctuation are important. It's always been my understanding that conservatives favor better and improved education. I edit and write for a living and when I see a sign with an error that even my 12-year-old wouldn't make, the message is lost. And I'm not the only one.
"You sit there like a frog criticizing the real Americans who are doing something positive"
Ribbit, ribbit.
Yes, it embarasses me when a freeper shows up in public carrying a sign with an error so basic. We laugh our butts off at liberals and call them uneducated idiots when they do the same.
What a great job you guys are doing! Wish I could have been there to join in the fun! It never ceases to amaze me how ignorant the libs really are. Thanks for the pics and the job well done, Colorado FReepers!
Well Gone GF your high and mighty highness I 'm the Idiot that made that sign and will not apologies to the like of a high brow that probably has and never will go out and face off against a crowd of liberal.One's that have so much love in their hearts for Freepers.
Yep! It's great to see the good folks of Colorado come out on a nice day - Sunlight is the best disinfectant!
Great to see normal folks showcase the clowns on parade.
ROTFLMBO!! Y'all have too much fun!
Great signs and an AWESOME FReep!!!!
Then you might try a private reply instead of trumpeting your grammatical superiority. You should also consider using the FR spell-checker. The word is embarrasses. LOL!
What a lot of fun... and I'm certain that the other side was happy they could count on you "attending" for the third year in a row! ;) LOL
Good job.
I like the 'leftist whining' and 'liberal loony event' warning signs! Haven't seen that before.
Hey - they gave you the last word! Good job!
The only way you could have made it funnier carrying the Drill ANWAR sign with your empty box would be if the empty box was from the Auto Parts store and said PENZOIL in large letters.
Thank you mollynme for that great suggestion. This thread is intended to support our troops and their families, not to squabble and be the grammer police.
What is the source of quarrels and conflicts among you? Is not the source your pleasures that wage war in your members? James 4:1
But refuse foolish and ignorant speculations, knowing that they produce quarrels. 2 Timothy 2:23
After spending 30 minutes with the VFW's on the corner of College and Mulberry, it was time to change locations and get ready for the parade.
Since we were there before most of the protesters arrived, they mistakenly thought we were part of their group.
You would think seeing the American flag being flown high and proud would have given it away, but it didn't. When we explained that the anti-American group is meeting on the other side of the street, they were irritated that we called them "out" as being America haters. They really believe they can be against EVERYTHING this Country stands for, give aid and comfort to the enemy, and undermine the war effort in every way, but somehow still insist that they "support the troops."
"Congressmen Americans who willfully take actions during wartime that damage morale and undermine the military are saboteurs and should be arrested, exiled, or hanged."(Abraham Lincoln)
I hope President Lincoln doesn't mind me adjusting his quote just a little!
The Left have an answer!!!!!
APPEASEMENT...
You done good, wish I could have been there.
The Coloradoan let us get in the last words, so our counter protest was a raving success!! Thanks for coming.
ROTFL!!! Great catch, Mollynme!
Say there, Gone GF, Your Royal Spellness - can you spell H-Y-P-O-C-R-I-S-Y?
Well, it really doesn't matter if you know how to spell it. You certainly know how to LIVE it, and that's what's important, eh?
PS: Maybe there's something I need to explain to you. We Northern Colorado Freepers stick together. We're not just an "online only" community. We've spent many hundreds of hours on sidewalks and roadways with each other in at least 9 different locations since Nov. 2000. Unless you really, REALLY enjoy foodfights (especially ones such as this that you are losing), you might want to "choose softer targets" the next time you decide to dis someone's apostrophes with a public instead of a private reply!
