The 2 Million Bikers to D.C. rally, which likely will be closer to two thousand, will bring a deputation of bikers into Washington today who plan to pay their respects to the victims of the Sept. 11 terrorist attack. Originally denied a permit, D.C. police have now granted permission for the bikers ride, reports UPI on Sept. 11.
Social media was abuzz with outrage that these patriotic riders were denied a permit. The 2 Million Bikers to D.C. requested permission to have a police escort, with no-stop authority granted at red lights and intersections.
Police have now said the ride is permissible, though the bikers will not have the benefit of an escort and are expected to follow all traffic controls.
The Washington National Park Service and D.C.s Metropolitan Police Department both refused to grant permits, saying the influx of bikers would be too disruptive to traffic on a work day, and that such permits are generally granted for weekend biker rallies.
The bikers ride is a counter protest to the Million Muslim March, a protest group organized by the American Muslim Political Action Committee (AMPAC). The group was granted a permit to hold their demonstration at the National Mall.
AMPAC, a fringe group led by Rabbi Alam, a known 9/11 truther who has espoused anti-Semitic conspiracy theories about the New York attacks, said in a statement that the event was designed to reveal the truth about 9/11 and highlight the media propaganda that has made the word terrorist synonymous with Muslim, reports the Huffington Post.
Initially announced earlier this year, the Million Muslim March sparked anger over the chosen date of September 11. Subsequently renamed the Million American March Against Fear, the protest has lost some traction.

I hope this is really big. If I were anywhere close and didn’t have a family to take care I’d be there in a heart beat. Probably wouldn’t be packing though...

Ever aware of his sorry place in History, POS Chief Executive Order Giver, B. Hussein Obama, aka Barry Soetoro, only last night in a major speech to America and the World, said the following:
WHEN DICTATORS CREATE ATROCITIES, THEY DEPEND UPON THE WORLD TO LOOK THE OTHER WAY.
BTW, B. Hussein, we are Americans, and we are looking to hold YOU accountable for YOUR Benghazi atrocity!
IMPEACH OBAMA !
REMEMBER BENGHAZI !

Anyone know or have a sources for accurate attendance numbers for both events I don't know if it will be accurate, but I've seen predictions of 5,000 Muslims and 50,000 bikers. We'll see.

The 2 Million Bikers to D.C. rally, which likely will be closer to two thousand,...Really? The estimate is only for two thousand bikers to attend?

This shows how stupid the leadership in DC is.
They could have issued the Bikers a permit driven them around their route and had them out of town in a couple of hours. Now they will be roaming anywhere and everywhere for most of the day.

Just on a side note...is anyone else besides me rolling their eyes every time a group announces a march of a million people, regardless of their political affiliation? They never manage to get anywhere close to that number.

Obama and Holder are publicly speaking about their plan of the week that are just more smokescreen distractions to divert attention away from the incompetent manner Obama has handled his day job.
The best indicator of a PHONY ADMINISTRATION is the number of its REAL SCANDALS.
Commie Tyrant Obamas current talking points are thus smokescreen distractions for the products of Obamas first 4 years in office:
* Refusal to close US Southern Border to Mexican illegal alien invaders
* No known un-forged records of Place of Birth
* No known un-forged records of University grades
* Benghazi Massacre
* Dereliction of Duty as CIC during Benghazi Massacre
* Cover up of Benghazi Massacre
* Destruction of Seal Team Six
* Cover up of Fast and Furious murder of US Border Agent by Exec. Order
* IRS-Obamacare Commune Death Grip on Wealth and Health
* NSA-Gestapo Death Grip on all citizens communications
* Use of Courts against News Media
* Use of Supreme Court to install Un-Constitutional Obamacare Tax
* Destruction of the US Coal Industry
* Refusal to permit XL Pipeline construction
* Trillion Dollar a year Federal Overspending
* Monthly violations of the US Constitution by Obama
* Use of Exec. Orders to bypass Congress.
REPLACE sniveling coward Speaker Boehner with a FIGHTER!
It is time to IMPEACH Tyrant B. Hussein Obama, aka Barry Soetoro.

Just to be clear: The Million Muslim March group WAS granted a permit to hold a rally in our nation's capital. The 2 Million Bikers - an American patriotic group - was NOT granted a permit.
