The National Youth and Student Peace Coalition is planning its April 20 march to oppose the Bush administration's war on terrorism and its effect on domestic and global issues. Protesters will rally at the Washington Monument grounds at 11 a.m. and expect speakers including Al Sharpton and Martin Luther King III. A march is planned after that.

The National Youth and Student Peace Coalition shouldn't be anywhere but in their little public school and learning, so just maybe they can pass the test. Wait, they are so dumb that even if they went to school to learn, they wouldn't. Too commie like!

A little more from the article. This is what we're up against:

At least four demonstrations are planned for April 20 in the heart of downtown, and organizers say they expect crowds numbering from several thousand to tens of thousands. Protests, concerts and teach-ins are planned throughout the weekend.

The four-day campaign will feature a diversity of dissent, including anti-globalization activists protesting the spring meetings of the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund, college students condemning the war in Afghanistan, Palestinian rights demonstrators rallying against U.S. aid to Israel, and others calling for an end to injustice in Colombia.

The rest of the article talks further about the agendas of the America-hating pro-terrorist leftists and how it will cost taxpayers around $9 million to ensure their protests don't get out of control and become violent.

Our rally will be easy to spot: it'll be the one where the American flags aren't on fire.

That's a really insulting comment about the kids. It's not that the kids are "dumb", as you put it, it's the leftists who run the public schools in the cities who rot their brains and demoralize them from thinking they can make it on their own.

Those "dumb" kids are the ones we should be reaching out to and helping by fixing the public schools and/or getting them into private schools or home schooling.

Thank you Angelwood, Kristinn and Dave, for having the vision (and faith) to organize this event. And thanks to the DC Chapter members who are putting their all into making sure that this rally will be a huge success.

Hey everybody !! The DC Chapter's rally has made the Washington Post !!

April 20th, Washington, DC - The Patriots Rally for America - All freedom loving, patriotic Americans are invited!!

And bring your flags. The American flag is to the commies as a silver stake is to a vampire (or is it werewolf? I always hated scary movies)

"The four-day campaign will feature a diversity of dissent, including anti-globalization activists protesting the spring meetings of the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund,

You should agree with them on that.

"college students condemning the war in Afghanistan,"

Call them vile, ugly names for that.

"Palestinian rights demonstrators rallying against U.S. aid to Israel,

Make fun of them for that.

"and others calling for an end to injustice in Colombia."

Sounds good to me.

[Also, anarchists aren't leftists; they're extreme rightists.]

You can't fix public schools, because they're working perfectly at what they were designed to do. There's no fixing to be done. Parents MUST get their kids out of public schools.

Hence the / between the Anarchists and Leftists. The groups we are facing are "strange bedfellows" - a marriage of convience.

You can't really reach a communist group as they are. But you can protest against them. The battle in the streets is coming and these commies will start it. Carry the American flag high and proud against these commie demorats. I will try and make this one.

You can count me out on their Columbia stand--the FARC is bad news.

I'm no fan of the IMF/World bank and the WTO, but I'm not standing with commies/leftists and anarchists. I have different reasons for not liking those organizations and don't need to hold their hands to show my disdain.

A big bump for the DC chapter!

Please be careful! Those "peace activists" are anything but peaceful. They got in our faces and tried to crowd us out of our corner last Friday, but we stood firm.

These Colors Don't Run!
