SUPPORT OUR TROOPS! Freedom Rally Against Terror and Tyranny on Sat., Oct. 25, 2003 in Wash., D.C.
D.C. Chapter ^ | Tuesday, October 7, 2003 | Kristinn and Angelwood

Posted on 10/07/2003 8:35:23 PM PDT by kristinn

For too long, America's fighting men and women have been laboring on a two-front war not of their choosing: The front against terror and tyranny that they volunteered for, and the flank that we must defend for them against efforts by the media and leftists to undermine their morale and resolve.

All summer long, and now into fall, our brave men and women have been doing great work in Iraq, Afghanistan and other areas around the world eliminating terrorist threats to our security while bringing freedom to oppressed people.

Those efforts have been buried under an onslaught of biased reporting and political maneuvering by the enemies of freedom at home and abroad.

On Saturday, October 25 at 11 a.m., patriotic Americans will gather at the Capitol in Washington, D.C. to stand up for our troops and reiterate our support for them, their Commander-in-Chief, America and the war on terror.

All FReepers and lurkers in good standing, their friends and families, and all who support our troops and their mission are encouraged to attend. Nothing but a strong public showing will do. Those in uniform are making great sacrifices. The least we can do is give up one day to say "thank you!" to them.

What: The Freedom Rally Against Terror and Tyranny

When: Saturday, October 25, 2003, 11 a.m. to 2 p.m.

Where: The West Front of the Capitol Building at 3rd Street, on the Mall.

Bring: American and Gadsden flags (large and small,) service and Blue Star flags, and signs bearing messages of support for our troops.

Confirmed Speakers:

The Honorable Robert K. Dornan
Niger Innis
Blanquita Cullum
Rebecca Davis.

More speakers to be announced soon.

This rally will be held rain or shine.

As always, the D.C. Chapter's rules for protesting will be in effect. Briefly, they are: No violence, no profanity, no racism, no provocations, obey the law and treat all law enforcement officers with respect.

This will be the 6th rally in the last 18 months we have sponsored. We haven't done them all by ourselves and we are most appreciative of the help we have received. We humbly ask once again for any help that can be provided to send a message of support for our troops. Please click here to help.

Special thanks to Registered for the logos.

Does anyone have any links or info on where ANSWER gets their money? I may want to include some of that info on a sign. Or just use it in debate with my liberal roommate.

Post pictures!! I'm in Baghdad right now and can't quite make it in time.

I ran into a DC Park Police officer over here who is an Air Force reservist. She knew exactly who FR was and had only good things to say!

Nice meeting you last summer.

The Park Police have protected DC FReepers from leftist intolerance and hate-inspired violence on numerous occasions. The US Air Force, along with her sister services, keep America free. Make sure that the Air Force/Park Police officer knows that FReepers appreciate both fine organizations.

Stay safe! Thanks for all you and others are doing there in Iraq for our country and for the Iraqis.

You, too. Hey, got any more of those 9/11 stickers? If so, I'll be glad to make another donation to get one or two. :-)
