The purpose of this thread will be to pool our resources and ideas to counter the attempted take-over of our nations capital and foreign policy.
It is not the place to voice your disgust with those that feel it is necessary to present a street presence to counter the dregs of society seeking to undermine and destroy our country and our leadership. If that is your purpose, please move along.
On January 27, 2007, Thunder90 posted a thread to advise us of the next convergence on our nations capital by the anti-American hate-mongers. This gives us SEVEN WEEKS to organize and strategerize.
While reading Thuder90s thread and the AAR from the DC Chapters counter demonstration last Saturday, January 27th, you will find inquiries in regard to transportation, hotels, metro lines and the like. There were also a number of Freepmails discussing these issues.
For those interested in making our presence known in Washington, DC on March 17, 2007 please feel free to offer what you can.
· If you are driving and have room for others, let us know the general vicinity you will begin the trip. I have an offer now of someone willing to pay for half the gas to share a ride.
· We already have offers of rooms/beds for those that need a place to stay. We can always use more!
· Perhaps you can rally enough interest in your area that renting a van or chartering a bus would be worthwhile. Let us know and we will see if that can be arranged.
· Those that live in the greater DC area or will have a vehicle at your disposal may be able to help shuttle folks from hotels or metro stations.
· We may need wheel chairs and those to push them.
· Those that have blogs, talk shows, columns or access to others that do please share!
Any specifics should be discussed via FReepmail!

(D.C. Chapter Report on 1/27/07)
There are no formal plans at this time. Why plan a big rally/counterdemonstration if no one plans to attend?
Rest assured the DC Chapter faithful, with assistance from local citizens and troops, will be in DC on March 17th between 11:00 AM and however long it takes to ensure our presence is known.
The question is WILL YOU BE THERE?

Pinging for ideas!

Thank you for making this thread. I will be out there, pending no changes to my school schedule.
How about we reenact the 1968 Democratic Convention? We could play the role of the Chicago cops!
God help me...I LOATHE these people!
Post the related threads on your state board and see if you can scare up some others from around there.
We'll be there somewhere. If we get a good response we could be several places. In the meantime, please plan to stand with us and our country that day.
BUMP
Bump--I have a feeling I'll be coming here often.
Also, ANSWER and UFPJ are holding rallies in Los Angeles, San Francisco, and Seattle. So, there is still counterprotesting for even west coast FReepers to do.
I'm marking this day on my calendar, thanks JAN.
Will there be sign-up sheets? Your last post about the soldier who was spat upon boiled my blood. (You might post a link to that thread here.) It's time to be counted. Pro-troops, pro-victory.
If anyone's coming from SC and can give me a ride then I'll be there. All the airlines realized that March is spring break month so a plane ticket is out of the question. I might be able to take a train if no one can give me a ride.

Great Sasha! Let us know how many will attend from your area. ;*)
Hope we see you here...at both.
Ahem, you may want to look toward the bottom of the body of the "article" just above the bold red letters. ;*)
Anyone from South Carolina up for a road trip?
A shout-out for standing up.
How about we surround the hippies surrounding the Pentagon and pray until the building levitates and falls, crushing them all?
Drat, why couldn't this be on a day when I don't have to be on call. Already committed for traditional St Patrick's Day church functions and as the pastor, I suppose I have to be there. The best I may be able to do is stand on the corner at the courthouse with my signs and flag. Of course, most of the people in our neck of the woods are pro-America and pro-troops. Probably because WV has more young people in the military per captia than any state.
bump
I will be there. Here's a sign: Make Sense, Not Love!
MARCH 17 PING.
Much as I'd like to attend, I cannot.
I'll be in Louisville, KY that weekend.
I am here!!! sent red mail
GOOD!
E, this ping's for you!
So far all I've done here in SF is tear down all the posters and stickers around downtown. But these all said March 18 on them. Maybe the date is now changed and I'm actually doing them a favor. Nonetheless, I'll take down all the new stuff when it appears. I know it's not much but . . .
Yes. Looks like Fayetteville has been superceeded by this in Wash DC.
Sure wish I could be there.
If any of you are going to CPAC, please mention this to the convention. It could help us with recuiting people to come to the counterprotest, and the attendies could spread the word back home.
They are going to be in your neck of the woods as well. Just check the local "Peace and Justice" website for details.
Thanks for the thread, Justa.
I cannot go, ilovew, but hope that you can represent our fair state if another SC freeper is going and can give you a ride.
The next (but certainly not the last, unfortunately) FRisco moronic convergence will be held on Sunday, March 18, 2007. The commies wanted to do it on March 17 to coincide with the D.C. event but couldn't get a permit to rally that day in FRisco because the St. Patrick's Day Parade was already scheduled for then.
And yes, there WILL be FReepin'! You can put that in the bank!
Good for you!
My hubby was driving home from work this evening and saw this huge sign hanging from an overpass that read RESCUE OUR TROOPS! It incensed him so much that he drove around, parked two blocks away (it was pedestrian only), walked to the overpass and cut that offensive thing down. He gathered it up and threw it in the back of his truck. He showed it to me and commented, "Someone really worked hard on this sign, huh?" They had. Too bad.
It's also the little things.... :^)
I did tell him that maybe he should keep that sign and add on the end "from the liberals in congress". ;^)
Fayetteville is still on.
Does this need a DC Chapter ping? No way to tell how many you ping at post #2.
BUMP
You should also contact San Francisco Voice for Israel.
I don't think there will be many moonbats in Fayetteville... Only the local moonbats that can't go to DC.
Not sure I saw your names on any of the pings for this.
If the last two years are any indication they will concentrate their efforts there. There were moonbat orgies elsewhere on that weekend in 2005 and 2006 also, but I believe the Fayetteville frenzy eclipsed even those in DC, NY, SF, etc.
I could be wrong, I'm just going from my feeble memory.
I will either be in DC or Fayetteville.
Hi Just A Nobody :)
I'm thinking. And I'm working on a trip there on this day. I think I may be able to do it. Thanks so much for the thread and ping to it!
Usually by now, ANSWER and UFPJ would be directing their moonbats to go to Fayetteville and there would only be a local protest in DC. Not this year. The moonbats are dead set on levitating the Pentagon and spitting at the Vietnam Veterans Memorial.
