Freepers, here was the score yesterday at their "Mock Trial - Exxon Mobil Crimes Against Humanity":
Us = 48
Them = 6 to 8
Today's story was similar, but on a larger scale. Today's score at the ExxonMobil sharehold meeting:
Us = 125
Them = 43
I've got a picture of the Ford Van with the U-Haul behind. I also have a picture of one of them carrying a PLASTIC (helloooo, made from petroleum resin) water bottle on her back.
Then there's the guy who had a little girl with him that wanted to hug the tiger. We welcomed her over to hug the tiger and offered her a cookie. Her guardian yanked the cookie out of her hand and said that they don't allow her to eat anything with "oil" in it. LOL! Someone told him that yes, we mean people killed lots of peanuts for that cookie.
Thread coming tonight after I get pictures loaded.
A somewhat similar cookie story I observed...
A young woman who was wearing a bandana over her face to admitedly hide her identity, had a very small child who wanted to see the Grinch. She was about 2 years old. The woman brought her over to our side where the costume was laying on the bench. The woman put on the Grinch mask (over the bandana), which delighted the little girl. Then the woman put on one of the gloves and showed it to the little girl. One of the FReepers brought over a box of cookies and offered them to the little girl, who promptly took one. Her mother (I presume) promptly took it away and handed it to the FReeper, who had to throw it away. I was out of earshot, so I didn't catch the conversation except to realize the FReeper was pointing out the stupidity of having to throw away the cookiie.
I wish I had caught a pix of this event - one of the most dramatic of the day.
It as great meeting so many of you today and a fine rally/counter-demonstration.
I enjoyed engaging several of those across the fence from us. I always try and pick the ones who have some openness left in their heart and mind. ... planting seeds.
Again, OUTSTANDING job. Please BUMP me on the thread you post.
Laz, these folks did us all proud today. Spread the word. It was a slam-dunk!
FRegards.
