Berkeley Support The Marines Rally - CALL FOR RESOURCES & LOGISTICS THREAD
YOU are the Source-- | 2/8/08 | Self--CA Coordinator for Gathering of Eagles

Posted on 02/08/2008 9:28:11 PM PST by The Spirit Of Allegiance

This is a CALL for RESOURCES. As California Coordinator for Gathering of Eagles, I have located living room campout/sleeping space in the Berkeley area for some Eagles coming in from out of town. We need a lot more living rooms!

Also helpful would be knowledgeable locals who can help with parking and a shuttle service--why feed BERKELEY'S parking meters?!?

Also need bottled water, snacks, sunblock, hand sanitizer, batteries of all sizes, posterboards, Magic Markers, whatever you think might be useful. Check back for updates.

IF you HAVE resources, FReepmail me and I'll discreetly try to direct a qualified situation your way. Post publicly instead, if you prefer and people can respond directly to you.



If you NEED resources, POST the need PUBLICLY, so that I or others reading this thread may be able to contact you directly.



Please feel free to add ideas and suggestions.

and two City Council Members plotting over the weekend to deny us our right to speak at the Council meeting at 7:00 tomorrow night. Oops, did I say 7:00? Now it appears the Council is meeting secretly at 5:00 in the afternoon.

No surprise there. Many City Councils are blatant in their use of secret meetings to cut their deals, that's why they live in nice houses above their pay grade.

In our town they did that, pocketed their money and two were put up for recall, and one was successful

Hmmmmm, start the rally at 5:pm, and shut down the sound system at 5:00 pm.

Well so what, the sign language people will be there. /s

I know a tiny bit of sign language taught to me by Dr. Zoo, I could give the Council an eyeful. I don't think they know how to interpret though.

No need to fight code pink for seats, if no real Americans get in the meeting, so be it.

They will be smugly pleased, and it will make them look even more pathetic and just display their un American actions to prove they want to be dictators like their friend Hugo Chavez.

It will only prolong the battle in our favor IMO.

They do have opposition from some in the city, I have heard the hill dwellers are disgusted with the council

Vietnam veteran interviewed: "Code Pink and ANSWER are together out here doing this and it reminds me of the horrible reception I got when returning from Vietnam!" (voice breaking with emotion)

Loud chanting "NO FEDERAL FUNDS FOR BERKELY!" Signs are GREAT! Interviewer was "fair & balanced!" Interviewed Vietnam vet that got drummed out of the corps complaining about being told there's "no free speech in the military!" Interviewer asked, "don't they have freedom of expression by joining the military?" (can't remember the lame answer)

You have to get up awfully early in the AM to beat Melanie Morgan!!!

Caught it.

Now Melanie is talking on KSFO

The police are ignoring the situation, as code pink is in the permitted area of the Americans.

Morgan has called the Highway patrol to take control

The riot squad has showed up now.

People arriving all the time, Patriot Guard Riders on their way

Live on KSFO

Is Melanie going to the meeting tonite?

She says yes

She was going to rest later, but now will be on the front lines all day

Will she be able to speak?

She plans to

The whole country is now aware of their despicable actions.

She is concerned they won’t let her speak at the meeting

Lee asks if she has bail money

Mel says yes, money, lawyer etc

She says, Hay Lee and Ossifer Vic can I count on you for 10 or 15 cents?

Berkeley police dept just watching code pink violating the law say that they should be ashamed says Lee Rogers.

Reid’s move delayed rap on Berkeley:

Senate Democrats left two days of legislative business officially open last week, hobbling GOP efforts to bring up a bill punishing a liberal California city for scolding Marine Corps recruiters.

Mighty Warrior King and Sovereign Lord, we thank you for how it is going today, even though initially it seems out of control and unreal. By their ridiculous and law-breaking actions this morning they are revealing their true nature to all. And thank you for the media coverage and all the nation watching (even the world). These anti-war activists are becoming so ridiculous that no one will be able to take them seriously anymore. Give the pro troop supporters courage, strength and wisdom NOT to stoop to their level. To stand firm, to persevere and not to waver but not to engage these individuals. We need Your strength, Your power in this. Use this for Your purposes to support our troops in the end. And we continue to pray throughout the day....In Jesus’ name, Amen.

I trust the city counsel in Berkeley appreciates that their
actions were beyond their scope. Beyond their charter. In other
word their actions were out of balance. The congress has sought to
restore balance. Berkeley loses and the Marine Corps gains, kinda
zen don’t you think? Berkeley should appreciate that. Now for an act
of kindness by the Corps. We generally name something after someone
to thank them. We should name $2mill. worth of ammo after Berkeley
and call them Berkeley Death Rounds. They should like our remembering
them and the media can broadcast every day how many Berkeley Death
Rounds the Marines used to kill our nation’s enemies. Now what Real
American would not like that?
