Its been roughly 36 hours since a patriot in Oregonlocal activist Casey Runyanposted on Facebook to say that on Friday, we assemble. Runyans words were a direct call to patriots in the Pacific NW to stand with citizens in Roseburg who have already made it clear that Obama is not welcome there for his planned visit on Friday. The call was regional but the answer was national. The rally went viral. Not even the mainstream Obama cheering section can ignore it anymore.
In that 36 hours, 23,000 people have been invited on Facebook alone, not counting emails, Twitter, and other social media. Watching the incoming links on PHS yesterday, I counted no less than 26 various patriot, gun, and prepper forums who were discussing it. Almost 2,500 people are listed as going on Facebook with another 1,000 as maybe. A search on Facebook for posts about the rally net an astronomical number of results. To say that Runyans words sparked a firestorm is like saying Hillary is possibly a bit of a liar.
What really stands out about this rally isnt just the national distaste for yet another narcissistic move by the naked emperor. Its the patriots who already left from Ohio to make it to Oregon by Friday to stand with the citizens of Roseburg. Its the guy who, on his own, collected a few hundred dollars from patriots across the country to provide high-quality signs for the rally. Its the hundreds and hundreds of comments from people in every state prayers and support from Tampa Bay to Anchorage, Honolulu to NYC. People offering money and resources and skills to make sure that the event is safe, responsible, and sends the right messagenamely, that Obama is not welcome in Roseburg, Oregon.
In the interest of full disclosure, Ill point out that I am not a resident of Roseburg, or even Oregon. I live in truly enemy territorythe Seattle area. I am helping to organize this event because I believe in it and I have experience doing it. I cannot imagine what Roseburg is going through, and the idea that Obama would swoop in and make his grand appearance there, to use yet another tragedy as filthy, bloody currency in his quest for total control it fills me with an emotion I cannot describe.
There are naysayers about this rally, of course. There always are. Some dont believe that the rest of the nation has the right to come and tell Obama he isnt welcome. Some merely want him to show up to an empty towna tall order in a city of 22,000. Some are worried about the fact that most of the patriots at this rally will be armed. Some think the mere act of protesting is disrespectful to a man who, however treasonous, is still the sitting President.
There is some merit to the idea that Roseburg, at its core, simply wants to be left alone to grieve. But as one commenter put it, the nation has stood by and watched the charade long enough. And at the crux of the issue is a twofold concept:
At what point does the President have the right to force himself on the People? Do the People not have the right to refuse him?
If Roseburg says, Please dont come. Please leave us alone and do not use us as fodder to disarm the gun owners in this country, does Obama have the right to come anyway? To use massive taxpayer funds to literally force the people of Roseburg to be pawns in his goal of destroying liberty, even though many of them are the very gun owners he is trying to disarm? Is there anything even remotely moral about using a cowardly, horrifying act as currency, against the very people who were victims of it?
We the People say no, it is not moral. It is not right. It is not liberty. And We the People will stand at the Roseburg Rally on Fridaynot to cause violence, not to wave our guns in the air and scream like children. We are gun owners and patriots. We carry firearms every day for the protection of ourselves and others, in defense of life and liberty, and Friday will be no different. But we are responsible, we are determined, and we will not falter.
The politicizing of cowardly acts stops now. The use of these acts against the American people stops now. On Friday, Obama will see that he, and his anti-liberty agenda, is truly not welcome in Roseburgor anywhere else in this country. We have no other option but to stand. Visibly, resolutely, calmly, peacefully.
Roseburgs childrenand oursdeserve at least that.
'Banglist' (((ping)))..
Oh, yes! Thanks for the assist. :-)
A lot of us know and understand that. Sadly, the heavily populated big lib cities swing the votes needed to put their screamin’ lib buddies in office. Same thing in NV. Outside Las Vegas it’s rural hard working communities that are conservative but subject to the unions and libs in Vegas. Reno is an oddball mix of both. But seems to me more libs. Having the indoctrination center of UNR here doesn’t help. Don’t know if that will ever change.
I get the feeling that Obama is about to decide there’s a basketball game he’d rather attend.
One egg = felony. 10 years in Fed prison as Federal political prisoner.
You're welcome! If we don't hang together we will most assuredly hang separately. (forgot who said that)
Pres. Hussein Obama has been itching to exercise martial law during his reign. I would not be surprised to see a number of armored ‘rescue’ vehicles poised for action. Obama is not one to waste a crisis, especially one he causes and controls. Remember how he kicked the door open as he left the press conference. Like a child throwing a tantrum when the adults of Oregon made their wishes known.
I’m curious how Obama is going to get there. I suspect the Roseberg runway is too short for Air Force 1.
If the media decides they can’t ignore it, they will try to make the crowd into a bunch of gun nuts and racists...another chance to bash the NRA and the Tea Party and to invent evidence that anyone who opposes Obama does so only because he is black. Maybe they will send a plant to do something provocative which they can use to try to discredit everyone there.
Where, exactly, is the Roseburg Rally being held? Where is the meeting place? Remaining silent is no longer an option.
Stand with Roseburg.
With your back turned to Dear Leader.
That should be about a 30-second story near the end.
They’re still in the process of setting up details about time & rally point. I’ll update this thread when I see it posted.
Ping!
Does anyone have any suggestions for a # Hashtag for this event?

The latter. And as a result, it turns into blaming the
Confederate Flag as if that solved the problem.
