LOL!! I think this is the new website the Dixis Sluts just launched...

[FreedomPoster]

Meant to ping you to my post above.

[NicoleGTalum]

Let me see if I have any other pics from that day. The one I posted is the only one I know of on my current notebook. I might have some others though - let me check.

[RobFromGa]

I'd be amazed too. (RobFromGa, Ga Tech- B.EE (Co-op), 1985)

[Tatze]

Great pictures, LBGA. You inadvertantly got me in one of them. (With my PACIFISTS are PARASITES on FREEDOM sign)

I circled myself. Ill have close-ups to post, hopefully tomorrow!

[OldFriend]

Even tho we live in NJ we get the Post delivered every day. Sometimes they make me mad, but generally it's a lot more bearable than any other paper.

Except the weekly Washington Times.

[Aquamarine]

I remember this protest. We wound up FReeping CNN Headquarters that day.

[Aquamarine]

I was there but didn't take any pictures. It was my first protest, found out about it from LoudCitizen.com (a link I found at Newsmax...didn't know about Freerepublic yet). My husband called Fox5 local news and asked them why they didn't get down there and they said there was other news in the city to be covered. That evening we watched Fox5 to see what important event they covered in the city that day... it was the after Thanksgiving Day Sale at the mall!

By the way, that little orange diamond thing means you can't watch the PRO-war rally story unless you PAY FOR IT.

Not true. I just watched in on a broadband connection. It came through real well. Great video.

Here is a panoramic composite of two of your "truck shots". Only a temporary image hosting though. You could get a better one with the original files and some more patience. I thought it was a good view of the overall crowd. Although you can't see all the people back in the main park concourse to the far back left.

[mhking]

I'm sorry I missed it! (incredibly busy with shuttling the kids, handling ongoing details for our home purchase & She-Who-Must-Be-Obeyed being out of town)

Good work, all!

[RobFromGa]

see my post #161 for a good "combined" crowd shot of two of LBGA's pictures. That's a lot of people...

[TaRaRaBoomDeAyGoreLostToday!]

Pic looks great,thanks! Now if the media would cover these!!! It seems only anti war protesting gets covered cause the media is so damned biased.

[RobFromGa]

Look what Atlanta and GA did today!!!

Proud to be an American and proud to be a Freeper.

[Miss Marple]

Just got done reading this thread. All Georgia should be proud! Congratulations!

bump for later

[maxwellp]

These are great pictures! Anyone know how we can get them to the people who matter the most - our military?

[maxwellp]

Let's put it this way - Hollywood - No one is listening - we listened once and that was far too much - ergo no American is listening anymore.

[The UnVeiled Lady]

HERE IS A GREAT FREEPER TIP....

I was buying posterboard for a tiny anti- anti-war rally in the small town nearby and...

I found this flexable write-on, erasable stuff. I bought 2 and a black erasable pen and taped them together on 3 sides and slipped it over the metal frame of an old policial yard sign from the last election.

I plan to keep it in the car and then at any rally can fill out both sides on the spot, wipe it off for the next time.

Also the metal yard sign posts can be stuck in the ground if you have too many signs to hold and not enough freepers and they will stand up and not blow over.

Rob --

That is fantastic. Georgians know how to throw a rally!

Love listening to Glenn Beck in the morning here in OKC area!

[Humidston]

CONGRATULATIONS from TX, NGT!!!!

[graykat]

I am a little concerned over the lack of coverage of Rally Atlanta on Fox and Fox News. Should we let them hear it? I'm a vigin here and need guidence. I am sure freepers would be glad to let them use pics if they had none. Please advise. I count on Fox for "fair and balanced" perhaps they need a nudge (or a freep)!

[graykat]

Excuse me I am tired. Not a vigin but I meant to say a virgin. A word I am non to familiar with as a 47 year old.

[Cindy]

Totally Inspiring!

[Libloather]

Saw someone on the news walking his pooch. The sign read, "There's no French in THIS poodle!" Awfully funny stuff...

[Libloather]

I circled myself.

Difficult to do unless you mark your territory. Nice job...

[Libloather]

Excuse me I am tired. Not a vigin but I meant to say a virgin.

A tired virgin? Can that happen?

[catfur]

WOW

Way to go Atlanta! Great signs, great people.

Love to all of Atlanta, especially our very own FReepers.

[dalebert]

fantastic!

bttt

[MarMema]

I cannot thank you enough. This is an incredibly heartwarming thread.

[over3Owithabrain]

Friends, Atlanta rally kicked leftist butt big-time today! Every local 11 o'clock news channel pointed out the 25,000 vs. the "dozens" of peaceniks at Piedmont Park. Channel 2 said that the pinkos went over to the Pro-America rally, but were not even noticed amongst the throng! CNN showed the Atlanta rally as a balance to the worldwide commie protestors. My wife and I are so proud to have been just a tiny part of this great event. Georgia stood tall once again for America, just as during the last election. We even have the best Democrat in all of Congress!

[Atlantian]

Dunwoody High Rules!

[MarMema]

Thank you Georgia. We appreciate you!!

[RobFromGa]

The first two of those pictures, with the middle one brightness-corrected, splice together perfectly and make an awesome shot. It is too big for me to upload though. You might want to play with it for an awesome crowd shot PANORAMA.

[RobFromGa]

What a great state!

[nyconse]

I was at the Atlanta Rally with my husband and three children. I saw your sign:great sign. My children will learn what it means to be an American!

[WaterDragon]

So wonderful! I especially like the signs supporting our troops and also the president!

FReepers are purest GOLD!

[Patriot1]

What a fantastic job you did!! That was spectacular! We in the New Orleans area have a rally next weekend, Liberty weekend. I hope that we have a wonderful crowd, but 25,000 is super spectacular!!

[Angelwood]

Great shots of the crowd - thanks for posting these photos. Atlanta FReepers and rally attendees - kudos for a wonderful rally to show support for the troops.

[HighRoadToChina]

You guys are AWESOME!

[merry10]

I saw this rally on CNN while I was at the gym this AM in Cali. When I saw the flags and colors I knew it was a Rally for America. It seemed like it had some coverage, not just a second or two of snippets.

[SmackPappy]

I was there today with my wife, son and brother-in-law. The crowd was HUGE, even with the lousy weather! It was cold, wet and miserable but we didn't care. This was a chance for us to show our support for our troops and for our President. We love America, our troops and our President!

[RobFromGa]

FReepers are purest GOLD!

Correction: Soldiers, pilots, sailors, marines are GOLD!

Freepers are Silver.

So. Why are you pawns working for Soros for a NEW WORLD ORDER! A NATIONAL POLICE FORCE! TOTAL GUN CONTROL!

[Libertina]

All I can say is WOW! What a day! Great speakers and 25,000 to 30,000 of my closest friends.
LOL I feel the same way at rallies :)
Nicole, what a great thread, fantastic job!
