There is a problem with that chart - the site listed for Arkansas (AR) - no such place - what's up with that?

Ketchikan ?

[Celtjew Libertarian]

Ketchikan is in Alaska.

[diotima]

Its a typo on the spreadsheet I have. It is listed correctly on the website.

I only had one red bull this morning...I didn't catch it.

[Spunky]

I will be attending the
SUPPORT OUR TROOPS RALLY
In the Tri-Cities
Kennewick Wa.

[OneVike]

I know Chico only has 40,000 people but we are having a rally today at noon.

[diotima]

OK, I will make a note of that. It doesn't matter how many people you have in your city. What matters is that the leftists can only get people to rally and protest in big cities. WE ARE THE REST OF THE COUNTRY!!!

So good for you!

We had a rally here in HSV last night. I was unable to go due to illness but the paper this morning said over 1000 people were there with flags, signs and costumes plus soldiers from the base here. I think it was organized by several veteran groups 2 days ago. I found it very interesting that one of the tv stations said there were 200 at the rally.

[FlashBack]

NBC coverage of anti-war march is all over the TV...NOTHING on the Pro-American Rallies at all!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

No media bias my @$$

I am proud of President George Bush, who in the highest traditions of American Independence, has refused to accept blatant "thugism" that threatens everyone, within America, and without.

The protesters remind me of the young soldier who doesn’t fire his weapon in combat, hoping that the enemy will not shoot him. He only insures that his number will soon be up. This is not "theory", and anyone who has been there will tell you this is true.

It is cowardly not to confront blatant evil when it is so amply demonstrated, as has been the case in IRAQ for so many years. Saddam was an evil monster, willing to kill anyone who had a different view. Even so, America tolerated the mess until it became apparent that it was flashing back upon America itself, and then it became time to act.

I think the "protectors" around the world, and no less those in the United States at this juncture, are inured with "insured socialism", the life of "perfect safety" and "no possible harm" etc. They think because of the education that Liberals have provided children for two generations now that as long as they "follow the rules’ no harm can ever come to them.

This attitude, which is cowardly as well as stupid, creates the very environment in which the Saddam’s of the world, like Stalin, Mao, and Hitler before them, can capture resources and command people in a despotic rule by fear and death.

Let me tell you something. Just because you refuse to shoot your own weapon, gives you no assurance that another will not shoot you!

God bless the President, a President of whom every single American can be proud. President Bush has demonstrated that at least some Americans, the majority of them, can still be counted upon to stand for something.

"a common argument used against the anti-war rallies is that they use police resources"

Bring doughnuts.

[diotima]

Well, not really or at least, not to the same extent.

For example, in SF and LA the left didn't just peacefully assemble, they blockled traffic and tried to shut down business. They disrupted the peace, so a large amount of police resources are used up controlling the barbarians.

At the freeps, when there are police around, there are only a few police not a squad of men or the national guard trying to contain the crowds.

So on the one hand in certain locations, a few police are there, usually to make sure we don't get out of hand and to control the leftist because they can't protest around the other side because they have no self control.

Not all freeps have the police there, usually only in danger zones, like Chicago, NYC, SF and so on. And, if the left didn't have a history of requiring force to behave themselves, resources wouldn't be wasted on the scale they are.

Wish I could go, but my son and I have the flu.

Good luck to all the other freepers going to these rallies.

I would like to post those rally dates on another message board, but I lose the formatting when I copy and paste it. Any suggestions?

[diotima]

Do you need the html? You can view the page source for the page in your browser window and copy the HTML code and post that.

[RoseyT]

No, I just need a way to keep the list formatted when I copy it. Trying to put it on an AOL message board. Should I just put a link to www.freeper.org?

[diotima]

Yes, that would be nice ;)

I had to format the list from an excel spreadsheet, so I feel your pain.
