Tonight's Fresno, CA "Support Our Troops" and "Peacenik FReep" rally was attended by seventeen FReepers and patriots. FReepers who were able to make it tonight were:
I counted nine peaceniks across the street from us tonight. The peaceniks had a little graveyard set up on the hood of one of their cars. One grave stone was for "Truth", one was for "Freedom of Speech" and so on. They held their usual signs that said such things as "United Against War" and "Find the Commmon Ground". They had a new one too. It said "Not Under My Name". I guess that means that they don't approve of the actions of the Bush administration and our military.
JKphoto brought a new sign that quoted the Pledge of Allegiance with "One Nation, Under God" blown up really big. Great sign JKPhoto! At one point tonight, we all stood together in a group and said the Pledge of Allegiance.
Response from those driving by was very enthusiastic as usual. It's very rewarding to know that the people of Fresno agree with us in supporting President Bush and the troops.
A big thanks to all who attended the FReep tonight. To all those who couldn't join us tonight, we missed you and hope we will see you next week!

Thank You one and all.

You all do us proud every week.
What a blessing it is to see the photos!
Wish I could be there!
You are all in our prayers.
God bless you all!
Find common ground? The terrorists found common ground. It's in NY, Virginia and Pennsylvania. Now we have something in common. They attacked us and we're going to eliminate as many of them as possible. That's the only common ground I know of.
BTW, thanks for the FReep and nice report.
BUMP!
Such a cute signature, mtngrl. Louie is so creative and resourceful, isn't he? The only thing that would make her more "YOU" is a sequined red, white and blue baseball cap, and some sunglasses. I LOVE that sequined hat of yours.
It was a great rally last night, so glad we could be there. Great dinner too - we missed you at our table mtngrl, senorita and GoodieD.
FReep On you fabulous FResno FReepers!
