Operation Infinite FReep: Fresno anti-Peacenik Protest / Support our Troops Rally
Free Republic | 10/10/01 | Jim Robinson

Posted on 10/10/2001 8:17:07 PM PDT by Jim Robinson

ATTENTION:

All Fresno, Clovis and Central Valley FReepers and lurkers:

Last Friday, we counter protested the Fresno area peaceniks. At the time, they said they were determined to protest the war every Friday until "peace breaks out." I hope peace breaks out soon, but I'm afraid it won't just break out on its own - we must fight to WIN the peace. Well, anyway, I have not seen anything from them regarding this Friday's protest, but we plan to be there whether the cowards show or not.

Please join our anti-Peacenik Protest and or Support our Troops rally this Friday at the corner of Shaw and Blackstone. We will begin showing up at about 4:30 to catch the rush hour traffic and will rally until the last peacenik drops. Bring your flags, signs, bullhorns and kids.

Honk if you love America and will fight to defend Freedom!

That is all.

Thanks, Jim Robinson

Any Pics??

I would love to protest the hell out of some peaceniks, however we have none (or at least none that have the balls to speak up) here.

Here are some pics from last Friday:

semaJ, Amy, Jim, GoodieD, Mark (operating the tank). I did not get the names of the two gentlemen in the back.


That's my son, Chris, peering out from behind his sign over GoodieD. I have no idea who the guy in front with the lights in his eyes is.


The foe across the street.

Good luck out there !

Any FReeper can hold a small patriotic rally on a street corner in their hometown or city. Just post an announcement using Operation Infinite FReep in the headline and it will be added to the link on the front page of FR. Chapter heads can also post an announcement on their state pages.

Getting out in public with the flag and signs supporting our troops will mean a great deal to those serving overseas or at home.

See you Friday; invite non-freepers to join us.
If you can help get this publicized via newspapers or talk radio, we may get several others to join us.

One other thing, make the letters on your signs big and thick so they can be easily seen. The photos above give a good example of the difference between big and thick and small and skinny letters.

As always, put FreeRepublic.com on the bottom of your sign so folks who see and/or photograph your signs will check out the site.

Jim, do you think 6:15 will be too late to arrive? We can't get out of here until 5:30 and it will take us at least 45 minutes to get there. What do you think?

Great! We'll be there. I have missed almost all of the Condit FReeps, I don't want to miss this opportunity to support our wonderful President and our courageous troops. We will bring a few extra signs also.

See you Friday. :-)

Great photos . I wish I could get people together here in Las Vegas. So far I can only get two of the girls that live here to FReep. And Mr. Snow Bunny too.

During the election it was so wonderful. Someone on a local radio station said for people to drive their cars to Cashman Field and everyone would proceed from their along the Las Vegas Strip. There were about 70 cars and motorcycles, flags flying, signs for Bush/Cheney on the cars . We drove in line, windows down, yelling out..Vote for Bush....and NO More Gore.

Mr. Snow Bunny called two of the local radio stations while we were driving in the vehicle freep and said....
"No More Gore....Vote for Bush...we are traveling along Las Vegas Blvd.....just wanted to say get out and vote for Bush."

Then we had our windows down and he yelled out the widow every 100 yqrds..... " FREEDOM....Vote for Bush! "....

He lost his voice for two weeks but said it was worth it.

Yes, there were some tourists walking along the sidewalks that gave us all the middle finger..... BUT we had tons of people smiling, pointing, and gave us all the thumbs UP.

Three bus drivers gave us the thumbs up and 5 cab drivers too.

It was something I will remember all my life. Goosebumps of loving America so much. That same feeling of tears in the eyes when we sing the anthem.

I just wanted to share this with you, I wish I could be there and freep with you, But I will be in my heart.
