It’s a shame that Webster doesn’t define Quakers as a bunch of hypocrites.
I learned this week that whenever the Legionnaires put flags on the graves of soldiers in the local Quaker cemetery, that the flags are promptly removed. No word as to where they go. This year the Quakers, and a local Episcopal Church, has told the Legionnaires, NO FLAGS THIS YEAR.
This year, the Legionnaires will be adapting and overcoming the diversity. More after Memorial Weekend.
BELOW: I mentioned “hypocrites” again because the Quakers once again had American Flags attached to their banners. Since this is their second week displaying our beloved flag, I definitely will have to educate them to their hypocrites. But we got the wave out of the white cars sun roof.
Did I mention that the Quakers don’t realize that a strong military is what makes peace possible. BELOW: Quakers twisted around Cindy_True_Supporter’s “Peace through Strength” sign. Just like Obambi pretends the TEA Parties are a minor nuisance, Cindy’s sign apparently hit a raw nerve with the Quakers.
The 6 Patriots this Saturday included Lurker Bill and FReepers Cindy_True_Supporter, Fraxinus, GunsAreOkay, [Mts] Trooprally (aka [Mts] T) and myself.
The Legionnaires had their first Yard Sale for 2009 and they were all at it. The yard sale helps raise money so that they can send packages to our deployed soldiers and do what Legionnaires do best - SUPPORT OUR BRAVE SOLDIERS.
Pics are by [Mrs] T
BELOW LEFT: One of our favorite out-of-state FReepers - GunsAreOK. BELOW RIGHT: Close up of Lurker Bill who was in the back ground of Guns’ pic.
BELOW LEFT: Me and Fraxinus. Frax is one of our favorite local FReepers to stop by. BELOW RIGHT: Me and Cindy_True_Supporter. Cindy has a little over an hour drive to get home. After Walter Reed she stays at the Olney compound. Since Obambi’s “no taxes on 95%” doesn’t include smokers, I’ve had to cut back on my cigar smok’in, which has Frax and Cindy on our right flank, talking to me more.
[Mrs] T was camera ready for our passing supporters. The first set of pics look like the same SUV, but the occupants are different. Look at the cars waiting for the light. One pic has a red truck in it.

But a lot of verbal engagement in Olney is always welcome.

A special Thanks to a FReeper FRiend for enhancing the original plain type directions.

D.C. Chapter Master Ping List
D.C. Chapter Master Ping List
All of them still see Patriotism as an affront to Christianity, and in direct competition with it. There's a reason they all gleefully elect Marxists at every turn and with every chance: they don't care if the country disappears tomorrow; and quite frankly, Christians would probably be all the better for it, you know....
One day the Liberals will start coming for the land in their agrarian communes, telling them what to grow and when - eventually, the government will just seize it because of what Liberals will see as “arable land shortages.”
Only then will they see what enabling evil people will do. Only then, when the very people they have passively and actively put into power turn their sights on what they hold dear, will they see their folly.
Despite their claims, it is not okay to try and create an atmosphere of Christian persecution in the name of getting down to “good old fashioned Biblical Christianity.” It is not okay to help destroy a Free Country and the claim it was “God's Will.” It is one thing to avoid military service in the name of pacifism, and another to call those who serve this country (essentially) heretics for their valor.
My FRiend,
That is very rare in your denomination these days......
They served their 2 years in public service as an alternative to military service back in the days of the draft.
Must be something in the oats.
I think the flag of the archdiocese is on one of the steps to the left as well, but I'm not sure.
By the time we left the Episcopal parish we used to attend (in 2003) I don't think they displayed the flag any more after they remodeled the sanctuary.
But WAY back, when I was a kid, the flag was carried in the processional.
Then be thankful that your church appreciates this Country. I’m grateful that they do.
I’m surprised that this church is not allowing flags. They are a big supporter of a real good Scout troop. They also allow the Lions and Knights of Columbus to have a pancake fund raiser at their facility.
[Mr] T
Agreed - Thanks for the post.
[Mr] T
ROTFLOL - your statement reminds me of when Doctor Raoul was able to make our Olney FReep. He had this 10” bull horn that he berated the Quakers, and “oats” was one of his lines.
[Mr] T
Almost blew snot out my nose when I saw the “Strength through peace” sign.
I responded with a near spitting of a gulp of tea on the keyboard though!
Trooprally and Mrs., Thanks for always being there representing all of us!
Nice to see “Guns” joined you this week when the others had another event to attend.
Nice to see the “Leggs” on display again. Sure beats the heck out of the blowing snow doesn’t it? “Strength through peace?” Duh...idiots.
The hubcaps are different on those two SUVs...just an
observation. :D
Y’all keep up the good work. I hope to join you again some
day. The time I did (at Walter Reed), it was a wonderful experience, showing
our troops that we love them.
Their sign actually means “Submission thru Peace”.
Hey, will you be at the Olney Compound today?
[Mr] T
Got to keep these AARs interesting. Like Walter Reed, we have pretty much seen everything. It’s the little things that make a good AAR.Of course the clueless morons help.
Time for your DC trip is getting closer. Can’t wait.
[Mr] T
Seems like the FReeper response to the moonbats’ new sign are unanimous, they are idiots.
Rain predicted for this Saturday so Leggs might be a no show.
