WITCH-HUNT

Marine Supporters to Fight Back Against
Witches at Berkeley Marine Recruiting Center

FRIDAY, MAY 9th – 8:00 AM – 12:00 Noon

(SAN FRANCISCO) – Pro-troop supporters will gather to counter the efforts by a coven of witches to cast a spell of binding on the US Marine Corps Officer Selection Office located at 64 Shattuck Sq. in Berkeley.

The anti-military demonstration by witches, crones and sirens is being organized by the radical left-wing group, Code Pink which proudly announced the despicable gathering at their website: www.BayAreaCodePink.org

The pro-Marine counter demonstration is being organized by Move America Forward (website: www.MoveAmericaForward.org), the nation’s largest pro-troop organization.

Melanie Morgan, Chairman of Move America Forward says that action must be taken to counter the gathering of witches against our military men and women:

"As the nation's largest pro-troop organization, Move America Forward finds these anti-military demonstrations despicable. It is America's sons, daughters, husbands, and wives who utilize recruiting centers to learn more about the opportunity to serve this great nation. To have a coven of witches outside casting spells against them is insulting, and quite frankly we wish they'd just jump on a broom and fly away to a country more to their liking,” Morgan said.

The official Bay Area Code Pink calendar lists Friday May 9th as “Witches, Crones, and Sirens” day at the Marine Recruiting Station. The group claims they will “perform rituals of leaving, cast a spell of peace and love over the station, rendering nil the recruiting of our youth”

The stunt comes as no surprise to those familiar with Code Pink’s antics, most notably their recent April Fool’s Day joke where the group sent out false press releases alleging they had reached a resolution in the ongoing battle over the location of the recruiting station.

Move America Forward, has been at the forefront of supporting the station’s Marines and fighting back against Code Pink’s protests. The group is organizing a counter-protest tomorrow at the recruiting center, and encourages it’s members to bring, in addition to flags and patriotic signs; brooms and witch’s hats or other items to mock this spell casting stunt.

Where: US Marine Corps Officer Recruiting Station
64 Shattuck Sq.
Berkeley, CA 94704

When: Friday, May 9th from 8:00 AM – 12:00 NOON

What: Bring American flags, patriotic signs, and brooms or witch’s hats to mock Code Pink

Who: Melanie Morgan, Chairman of Move America Forward, will lead pro-troop supporters in pro-Marine demonstration to counter the coven of witches.

This is the sort of nonsense that’s better ignored than publicized.

Totally disagree. This is the kind of nonsense that represents the anti-war movement and we’re more than thrilled to help publicize it.

Because you need to have the alternative viewpoint represented for the media.

Conservatives do a poor job in that they readily (and rightly) dismiss the inane antics of the Left. The Left however takes every opportunity to get their message out.

When the Left chooses to make an @ss of themselves, it's importance to pounce on the opportunity.

” efforts by a coven of witches to cast a spell of binding”

One could say to hell with these leftist pagans; but it seems that would not be an insult to this particular group of liberals.

Here, it’s ok. Publicized on MSM, it just gets them the attention they want.

Ilya Mourometz thinks this sort of thing is a waste of time.

The people our military is protecting them from would be quite willing to burn them at the stake.

The have never stopped to think that America one the few countries that would allow their kind of conduct.

There are quite a few that have to make a joke of their lives and they are politicians that seek their votes.

I know people who consider themselves witches. Interestingly, every one of them fully supports the military, and I don’t mean in the fake Democrat “Bring them home in shame” way.

Must be a Kalifornia thing with these people.

Sadly, I can't attend any of these events being planned around the country, as none are near me.

However, to honor all of you who will be attending to support our recruiters and our troops, I will spend the day dressed in my "badge of honor" clothes. These are the jeans and boots I wore while standing in front of the DC recruiting center during the Pinkos march-by. One of them plastered me pretty good with a paint bomb--and I was never able to get the paint out of my jeans.

"cast spells, weave magic, invoke the foremothers, share wisdom, lead rituals to banish war and violence and to bring peace to the MRS, to protect our youth from the powerful spells of pro-war forces,  to lead the  men of the marine recruiting station off into the oceans of peace!"  [The link to prove our point- HERE]   

This is just the latest attack on the Marines by the leftist, anti-military radicals.We here at Move America Forward decided to have a counter-event.  We're calling it a "Witch-Hunt" and we ask you to join us this FRIDAY, May 9th at the Berkeley Marine Recruiting Center.  We'll be out there from 8:00 AM - 12:00 Noon and ask you to come and join us for part of the time, or all of the time if you can spare the time. The Berkeley Marine Recruiting Center is located at 64 Shattuck Square in Berkeley, California - CLICK HERE for a MAP.
 
Bring a broom (the symbol we're using to mock the anti-American witches of Code Pink), and bring American flags and signs. Melanie Morgan (yours truly) will be there and I am asking for your help to get the word out with such short notice.  Call your friends, send out emails.
