"Peace Activists" Slap Female Blogger Twice--Encourage Others to Violence" PDF E-mail
Written by Melanie Morgan   
Sunday, 23 March 2008

Many times I have been threatened with violence, as well as our staff at Move America Forward.

We simply shrug off the danger, and continue with our work to support our troops.

'Skye' at MidnightBlue.com wasn't so lucky yesterday in Philadelphia, Pa.

She was slapped TWICE by so-called 'peace activists'.

Video verifying 'Skye's' account coming shortly. And photos.

'Skye' with Michelle Malkin.

Skye with Larry Bailey of Gathering of Eagles.

She sent me two e-mails.

Here's the first.

Melanie,

I am saddened to report this:

Saturday around 12:10 PM, a member of the Chester County Peace Movement (CCPM) slapped a woman twice ( that would be me) who was videotaping an exchange between the two opposing groups. Police were called and an officer arrived at 12:15 PM and announced to the crowd that he was conducting an investigation.

The CCPM member was pointed out to police and the officer told the man to come forward and the man refused. The guy was totally uncooperative, belligerent and would not go with the officer. When he shoved the officer, the officer's partner took him to the ground to be handcuffed. The guy continued to resist while on the ground and the peace movement folks surrounded the officers, some as close as a foot or so away.

Photos at the bottom of http://picasaweb.google.com/rgc1946/WestChesterMarch222008 show this quite clearly.


I've prided myself in my professional conduct at this rally and to be struck twice by a 'peace' protester who has been present since the time I began covering this rally is truly disturbing.


Sincerely,
Skye

Since Skye and I corresponded, here's the second, more disturbing report where the 'Peace Activists' blatantly lie about what happened.

Melanie,

I will always stand by behind out brave men and women in the military. Always and Always.

This has gotten worse since I emailed you...

I've gotten hold of a copy of the after action report from the peace protesters. Their leader, Karen Porter, condones the attack and sends a message that it is okay to hit us.

Sorry for the scrawled email, I am near tears.

Here is the the text for your perusal.

Some of you were at our vigil today, some weren't. Very briefly, here's
what happened (and we have it all on film by several people):

One of our vigilers had a verbal conflict with a counterprotestor who has
for six months constantly harassed many of us (including me). We ended that,
but it started again; and we called the police. The police came and had a 
conflict with the peace vigiler who had the original conflict. The police arrested
him, and another one of our folks, attempting to support the first vigiler,
got involved in a conflict with the police - and the police thereupon
arrested him. Several of us went to the WC Police Headquarters. Both vigilers were released after about 45 minutes.

I will not go into more detail for legal reasons. Plus, I was so busy  trying
to divert the crowd that I didn't see it all. Luckily, a lawyer  was at our
peace vigil, went to the police station with them, and has offered to
represent them both. The entire affair is now in the hands of lawyers.

If you have any doubt about the fact that the counterprotestors are probably
celebrating tonight, see what they think of us:

At any event, always, always have a video camera and use it anytime the opposition gets near you.

They will commit or provoke violence, and without unequivocal proof, or in this case someone on the other side stupid enough to assault an officer, then you may be arrested, or even named in a lawsuit.

When he shoved the officer, he committed a serious crime -- assault of a police officer -- that can carry REAL penalties including REAL time in a REAL jail.

Apparently, Skye was slapped by Ted Turner.

He's an old hippie,

and he don't know what to do

should he hang on to the old?

should he grab on to the new?


He's an old hippie,

this new life is just a bust

he ain't tryin' to change nobody

he's just tryin' real hard to adjust...

(needs a little help with the adjusting thing, though...)

With apologies to the Bellamy Brothers

Thanks, rwi,

You are on top of things.

These losers in West Chester are very agressive and get right in front of you, right in your face.

Skye is very polite, very reasonable, and not at all in anyones face and indeed very professional. For heaven’s sake, they hit a Democrat! (conservative demo).

Yep, they believe in peace alright. /s

Its got everything to do with facism, and nothing to do with peace.

Sure hope you got a slip and fall lawyer Skye!

Meanwhile, the terrorist scum in our midst can shove and slap the patriots with nary a sideways glance.

"Meanwhile, the terrorist scum in our midst can shove and slap the patriots with nary a sideways glance."

While the main objective of Patriots is to Support Our Troops it's become advisable to also provide protection from so-called "PEACE PROTESTERS". Patriots now must watch each others backs because the police have grown tolerant in witnessing acts of aggression. JMO

Peace Protester = oxymoron

The anarchists are starting to show their true colors, starting with Berkeley, various other recruiter centers and now this.

Well, I remember those anarchists getting away scott-free after assaulting DC Metro cops last week at the recruiting station. There’s a different standard for the Left and their drama queens - that’s why they can get away with so much.

Real Men don't "slap". They certainly don't slap women.

Thank you

I met Skye at Eagles Muster in Washington DC back on March 15. She's a nice person and she kind of kept in the background, took pictures and notes of the Muster and the Patriots March. Skye mentioned to me that she's visited my blog, RochesterConservative.com and I promised to link her blog, Midnight Blue from mine, which I did.

After meeting Skye, however briefly it was, there's nothing that justifies violence that was perpetrated by the male moonbat towards her. She was videotaping the proceedings and not engaging the "peace" protestors, for gosh sakes! It doesn't surprise me though, that the moonbats would resort to violence. Look how they've trashed military recruiting centers accross the country and how they've defiled military memorials. They are bitter and hateful people! Ever see pictures of the moonbats faces during their vigils and marches? The always seem to have angry and bitter looks. Contrast that with a Veterans and Patriots Rally, where everyone is smiling and uplifted by the experience.

I hope Skye is able to get enough evidence gathered to press charges against that lame excuse for a man, that slapped her!

At a rally in Berkeley last month, a 6' guy tried to wrestle a microphone from Melanie Morgan and in a few seconds he was on the ground with a mouth full of dirt with a Gold Star Father Vet on top of him.

I would have paid good money to see that, and even more to help give him the beating of his life.

I think his last word is supposed to be "whining."

"Whinging" or "whingeing" is the word used in England and Australia to describe what we would call "whining".

I'd suggest a wood shampoo, but he's bald as an egg.
