Luigi?

I guess this means I can't play Mario Brothers anymore.

Fantastic FREEP!

[Interesting Times]

Bee-youtiful. A clear win for the good guys.

Sign suggestion for future counter-freeps:

"Capitalism is what people do when they're free."

[Jorge]

Luigi also explained that "global capitalism is destroying the environment and it's destroying the earth. It's destroying the quality of life for everybody other than the upper crusts who are reaping the benefits."

This is garbage.
The truth is that in the richest countries water and air pollution is down, species are being restored to the wild, and forests are increasing in size.
Capitalism actually is better for the environment.

The regions of the world most devasted by pollution and destruction of the environment have been those dominated by non-capitalist, dictatorships, communists etc. such as we've seen in eastern Europe and the Arab states.

As usual these anti-capitalists have their facts backwards, and depend on ignorance in order to promote their misguided causes.

Additional details of the action can be found on the Free Republic Network homepage. Major confrontation and confounding of the Communists. Love it!

HOO YAH!!!

[WIMom]

When pressed on the issue, she said, "It's unfortunate that we have to drive a van. It would definitely be our preference to be able to take alternative forms of transportation, but unfortunately today, we had a lot of gear with us."

Banana added, "All of our gear though is recycled."

Heheh, couldn't happen to a nicer bunch of flaming lunatics.

Congrats to the Dallas FReepers, There are few things better than busting up a leftist liberal rally!

Hats Off to all of you

[Humidston]

Niger is DEFINATELY one of us. Fer sure!

[Humidston]

BTW, Jeff Head and I had a conversation with her as her group was disbanding.... She attends Rice Univ. in Houston.

[mdittmar]

One of the groups funding the protests is the Pew Charitable Trusts.

Great find,Freepers never cease to amaze me,a vast pool of knowledge.

[mikrofon]

No doubt she was interviewed by Ms. Roseanna Rosannadanna ... ;^)

Kudos to all those regular folks who stood up to counter-protest these anti-freedom idiots -- it's great for once to see such "special interest" groups take their recycled rhetoric home with their tails between their legs.

[Dales]

Yep. Leftist groups like this donate literally billions and billions each year to fund the degradation of our society and the demise of capitalism. Pew is one who was funding the Mobil/Exxon protest among other things. If you go and poke around the Undue Influence website and see just how much money these organizations spend on pushing communism and socialism and Marxism each year, you will see that it is staggering. Billions.

And Billions.

One would think if they really walked the walk to match the talk they talk, they would give that money directly to feed the poor.

But then, feeding the poor isn't what they really are about, now is it?

Nope, it is about power, and often times (as in the case of the Pew family trusts) it is about a convenient conflict of interest and hamstringing a competitor.

Ain't Marxism grand?

[Labyrinthos]

Niger is DEFINATELY one of us. Fer sure!

I'm smiling. How's his dad doing these days?

[Dales]

BTW- I think a special thanks should go to the 'pod, who donated his own time and money to travel from DC to Texas just to show what activism is all about.

[meyer]

These morons should get a job and a 401k and maybe they would realize how capitalism works.

Yeah, they should. But they'd probably invest the entirity of their 401k in one stock -- Can you say Enron? Then, they'd want the rest of us to bail them out.

[Joe Brower]

Well said, IronJack, as usual. I would like to believe that the tide is truly turning. And as the article quotes above, victory is sweet indeed. Well done, all!

[Lazamataz]

Good work, gals....

[Lazamataz]

Yep. Leftist groups like this donate literally billions and billions each year to fund the degradation of our society and the demise of capitalism. Pew is one who was funding the Mobil/Exxon protest among other things. If you go and poke around the Undue Influence website and see just how much money these organizations spend on pushing communism and socialism and Marxism each year, you will see that it is staggering. Billions.

Yet with all the billions spent to foster Marxism -- like a poor marksman -- they just keep missing the target.

[Lazamataz]

In Dallas today, they were given "the hook" by a coalition of Americans who are just plain fed up. Hopefully this reaction will catch on,

Only if this victory is widely advertised to the average American.
