But you two were at last September's Support the Troop Rally that a lot of FReepers seemed to have missed. And NOW they say that they would come to such a Rally.

Thank you and Zelig for being there last September.

Hey you others, keep watching the Activism/Chapter sidebar section. There are FReeps all over the Country that need help. I read about too many one or two FReeper FReeps.

All the D.C. Chapter asks of others if they can just once in a while give up the unnecessary things for one day and help protect our troops' back.

Don't underestimate the power of a one-Freeper Freep. A couple of years ago, I was walking south on Michigan Avenue in Chicago and I saw about three or four of the pro-Palestinian left-wing college types doing their thing at the NE corner of Michigan and Wacker, with a Palestinian flag and a megaphone.

Timing is everything. I showed up just as the batteries in their megaphone were giving out.

I walked past them, got halfway across Wacker Drive to the median and turned around. I yelled, "When the 'noble Palestinian people' stop MURDERING women and children, then you'll have peace."

This started a shouting match. I stayed on the media, they stayed on the corner.

Little did I know that behind me was a gathering crowd of Jewish high school kids and their parents. Yes, the Jewish people have parochial schools just like Catholics. All it takes is one loud, confident voice that's just FED UP, and others will follow.
