Meanwhile, the democratic candidates, and in fact, the entire democratic party will insist they’re REALLY not against the military................

I have a problem with grey haired men who have ponytails...but that's just me.

Wonder who the dude in the dark sunglasses is that's giving the protesters hell?

“We made really great statements by blocking the door,” said one of the three blockaders, 64-year-old Mary Ann Thomas of Oakland. “It’s time we became more articulate about what we’re doing.”

What kind of statements would that be? That you are a blithering idiot? That you have no clue that the Marines have nothing to do with the country’s foreign policy?

You will be the one screaming loudest for the Marines when Mohamnut arrives on your doorstep with his sword to chop off your infidel head.

In another thread about Berzerkly I posted links to the video "America's Marines" I thought I would repost it along with links to each of the areas where the video was made. There are great interviews with the Marines and the Americans who support and respect them!

America's Marines

America's Marines in Rhode Island

America's Marines in New York

America's Marines in Philadelphia

America's Marines at the Marine Corps Museum

America's Marines in Kentucky & Indiana

America's Marines in Nashville and Columbia

America's Marines in Denver and Leadville

America's Marines at the Grand Canyon and Hoover Dam

America's Marines in San Francisco and San Leandro

Hell they'd call for the Marines if their PG&E went out. Useless whiney people that never grew out of the sixties.

I think the Marines should very gently pick them up and go and chain them to the gate at the Iranian embassy - on the inside.

Drinking Coffee There has to be a boatload of military in the vicinity.  They should  pick a day or two and all converge at that very location at the same time.  Just stand around talking and encroaching upon the territory.  It would have to be a tad bit intimidating to such panty waists.

We’re giving these freaks exactly what they want just by acknowledging this event. They thrive on stirring the pot; it’s all they’ve ever done since puberty.

Ignore ‘em and they’ll eventually go away.

It is not the UNITED STATES Marines who do not belong in Berkley, it is the socialist city of Berkley that does not belong in the UNITED STATES.
US Marines ‘intruders’??? Not tons of illegal aliens, Marines, are not welcome.
Well-—the USMC should station only ‘minority’( preferably Hispanic) recruiting officers there;then claim it’s racial discrimination. See how they deal with that!

There’s another business upstairs. If I were that business owner, I sue the city for giving the pinkos a reserved parking spot and a loudspeaker permit. These idiots have to be having an effect on his business!
