Ping!

[Southack]

So when the opposition can't show up, they just send "hate" letters?!

[Agnes Heep]

I'm part of a hate group. I hate leftists. (And they smell bad, too!)

[notpoliticallycorewrecked]

Moutain girl,

I taped the 11 o'clock news. We were the lead story. They did the intro as "a Fresno group, are they a hate crime group or patriots?"

I'll bring the tape to the picnic. I'll try to bring my TV/ VCR so we show the tape. The three of you need to be ready to sign autographs.

She didn't know quite what to say but then finally she held out a letter that her television station had gotten from someone who works for the city warning them that there was a "hate" group affiliated with Freerepublic who was going to rally on this corner tonight.

Someone who worked for the city huh??

Have fun at the picnic tomorrow ...

Here is the news release that I photographed.

See you at the "picnic" tomorrow!

FYI: Tri-Tip is marinating and sure smells good!

Here are the scanned images (front and inside) of a card we received from one of our military units over in Iraq:

Thank You Patriots
Hope you have a great day today!
Have Fun!

And just why do we continue to address the "left" some people might say? Just read this excerpt that was posted on Richmond, VA website yesterday:

QUOTE: "It means also that to kill an U.S. soldier will be a good humane act by saving human lives. These following U.S. mercenaries are now irrevocable and forever unable to kill more humans. It's a good outset." END QUOTE

They then listed the names, ages, ranks and hometowns of America's sons & daughters killed in our fight for freedom. It was like a knife through the heart.

I am leaving now to counter-protest a group of them and will read those names at the demo. Our Freedom Fighters will never be forgotten. Never.

Good work last night! We'll see you about 3pm at the park.

FRee Publicity for Free Republic! ***Awesome***!

The anti-America crowd had their little plot against you blow up in their faces. "Hate Group" - yeah, right. That's the pot calling the kettle black!

FResno FReepers ***ROCK***!

She said that she wanted to get an interview to put on the news at 6:00 and asked who might want to answer a few questions. We all pointed to Jim. Lol!

Here on the East Coast, we all do the same with our "Jim" (Bancroft) aka RaceBannon. A news reporter shows up, wants to interview someone from our group, we all yell for RaceBannon (he is the most eloquent and passionate out of all of us!)

[ibbryn]

What a great opportunity! And very well handled.

We got press coverage of our group. A reporter came expecting to find a hate group and left after meeting a group of well mannered patriots. She'll think twice before falling into the same "hate group" trap and is probably telling her peers what she experienced.

A bunch of cops are pissed cuz they wasted their time babysitting a group of people who need no babysitting. They'll remember our name, remember we're ok and if we ever are involved in a confrontation with anti-Freepers, will remember that they watched us in a very peaceful Freep that had no problems and know we are probably not the instigators.

We also have an opportunity for someone to follow up through official channels with the City. We can press them to either explain why the city has us labeled a "hate group" (another opportunity to educate the uninformed and spread the REAL message of Free Republic) or get them to admint they were duped. They can then be pressured to go after and punish whoever initiated the "hate group" label for wasting the city resoursces and tying up cops that were needed elsewhere.

Good job to everyone involved!

[Mixer]

Good for you mama!

[bluesagewoman]

Oh you guys! I haven't laughed this hard in months! You are doing great at getting under their skin. THANKS!

[I_Love_My_Husband]

Great pix! You all look wonderful and happy! Some *hate group* we are! LOL!

Regarding these HRC's that all cities have, they need to be disbanded. They're awful, all of them. The people on them need to go back to their real jobs (at McD's) or the usual gov't handouts they are getting for being too mental to work.
