Video Footage from the Marine Rally in Berkeley

I had a chance to meet Jim Robinson, mingle with hundreds of supporters of the Marines and go toe to toe with absolute idiots. A six hour drive home and my head is fried...but lots more videos coming over the next day or so ....and more.

I don't know how to embed the video here, so am providing the link.

Link to Video and information after action

Well I am never going to make it as a movie guy, but lots more coming....the interviews will make most of us here gag.

NOTE TO FR STAFF: Sorry about posting twice, the computer went all strange during the posting process of this video thread....Tom

The petition

We, the undersigned condemn the Berkeley City Council’s treasonous attack on US Marine Recruiters stationed in their city. We ask that Congress cut off funds from any and all municipal entity within the confines of the city of Berkeley, California, until such time as the city council withdraws it’s action.

The City Council has voted to tell the Marines their downtown recruiting station is not welcome and “if recruiters choose to stay, they do so as uninvited and unwelcome guests.”

The measure passed last week by a vote of 8-1.

The council also voted to explore enforcing a city anti-discrimination law, focusing on the military’s “don’t ask, don’t tell” policy.

In a separate item, the council voted, also 8-1, to give the Marxist protest group Code Pink a parking space in front of the recruiting office once a week for six months and a free sound permit for protesting once a week.
