    Hey Minnesota Freepers! The Minnesota Military Expo is back for the first time since 9/11. This year, it looks like most events will be held at the Army Reserve base instead of the Air Force Reserve base. I've attended in the past and it has been very very interesting! Please make note of the dates and the events happening that weekend. Pass the word around to any Minnesota Freepers not on my PING list or anyone else who may be interested!

    This thread, without knowing it, got started by a post from a Mr. Dan Decol whose son is at Walter Reed. He logged onto FR just to give the following message, in Post #94, to the "Street FReepers" at Walter Reed. To: PleaDealI am one of many family members of soldiers who are presently at Walter Reed.

    After attending the “You Don’t Speak For Me, Cindy” rally at the State Capitol on Wednesday, I KNEW I had to do whatever it took to be there for the “Peace and Justice” rally on Saturday. In between taxiing kids to various activities and attending a funeral for a friend, I managed to spend a few hours with some of the most angry, hateful people I have EVER been around in my entire life! It is an experience I will NEVER forget and I am so glad that I was able to go. I was very nervous about going alone,...
