    Bemusement at the Left. Today, our troops turned out about 15 to their 25. Their signs were small and illegible. Ours, thanks to the resources available on FR, were bright and to the point. The "No Blood for Oil" argument was quickly dismembered, and we did a show of hands for all those who had actually ridden to the rally upon their horses. They had a couple of incredibly bitchy women (sorry, folks, but what IS it about these leftie women? Ugly and pushy, to boot) getting in our faces and trying to hide our signs. I asked one what...

    This Freep is dedicated to the memory of Staff Sgt. Donald May, Jr., USMC, Chesterfield, VA. Being a little early, I was able to park the Freep-Mobile directly in front of the Va. Museum of Fine Arts where the Women in Black (I'm just going to call them WIB's from now on) gather before their march down the Boulevard. I hung an American Flag on the side of the truck and “EVIL TRIUMPH’S WHEN GOOD MEN DO NOTHING” with the Eagle, Globe & Anchor emblem on it. A few of the WIB’s were sporting yellow ribbons this week. One of...

    Today Saturday was a great day for America and a very bad day for the pencil necked tofu eating gender challenged cowardly appeasenik terrorist lovers. At Veterans Park today the Pro America Rally was cancelled. It was a cold overcast ice-rainy slushy day, that had been preceeded by an even worse thunder and lightening ice storm night. So... the event was cancelled and it was annouced as cancelled on T.V. That my friends is the good news. Why? Because the park filled up ANYWAY!. Thats right! When I got there there were 3 former Marine vets. Thats all. I joined...
  • VENTURA COUNTY LOVES ITS TROOPS!! Another successful rally!

    Ventura County loves its troops! There was a very successful rally held at the Port Hueneme Naval Base today at the corner of Channel Islands and Ventura. This rally was organized by friends and families of our brave troops and was truly a grassroots effort. Over 100 people attended - include some of our freepers! A platoon of Junior Marines came over and have a loud HOORAA, Papa John's brought over pizza and somebody else dropped off a ton of cookies! Hopefully, some of the freepers took pictures and will post them. The rally was so successful that another one...
  • After Action Report - Operation Infinite Freep - Galleria I (Houston, TX)

    Today ten members and lurkers from the Houston Chapter of FR (H.A.T.) gathered for another show of support of our troops, our country, and our President. Today's event was familiar surroundings for many of them, as the place was the Galleria, site of many Election 2000 Freeps. We regret to inform our freezing friends up North, but with sunny skies and temperatures in the low 80's, winter has finally left Houston for good. The featured sign was again the "We Support Our Troops" banner, but other "Support Our Troops" and U.S. Flags of various size were also present. Also present...

    I arrived at the Stop and Shop Plaza on route 35 in Keyport NJ at about 3:10 pm. Keyport is in Monmouth County, about half an hour or so from NYC. The guest speaker (and organizer) was to be Guardian Angels founder and WABC 770 AM radio personality Curtis Sliwa. Curtis was late, as he was coming from a previous rally in Fieldsboro (?sp?) NJ, the mayor of which gained notoriety for banning public displays of flags or yellow ribbons on public property. While waiting with the crowd (about 200 and still growing), I was able to reach the Mark...

    April 5, 2003 at Hot Springs, Arkansas from 1300-1500 there was a SUPPORT out TROOPS Rally! We had aprooximately 200 supporters at one time, but there were people coming and going so I would estimate amybe around 300 max. Not big, but not too bad considering the location of the rally and no signs giving directions. This was off the main roads. Pictures? I'm posting only my favorite one (I shrunk them down for speed) click on the links to see the rest Picture-2 - Picture-3 - Picture-4 - Picture-5 - Picture-6

    The Fires of Hell await us, Brothers and Sisters of the Freep. At least that is what local peaceniks have predicted for us “warmongers.” In their willful blindness they turn their heads from the hell on earth created by Saddam’s torture chambers and tyranny and refuse to remember the fiery hell of the WTC created by Saddam’s allies in sprit, OBL and his ilk. Judgment Day is Coming. Freedom is Coming. We will just have to wait to see which souls get the fires and which get the virgins. The Vigil for Peace is starting to have a theme running...

    I'm probably the first person from Free Republic who attended the Coachman Park Flag Fest that's already home. I selected the front page for this report because those of us in attendance from Free Republic invited rally participants to visit us here. It will be much easier for them to be welcomed on the front page. Welcome. I will have pictures from the rally and will be posting other links here. Flyers were flying in addition to all the American, British and military flags. There were some great signs too. I was interviewed for local television but as time is...
