It’s been roughly 36 hours since a patriot in Oregon—local activist Casey Runyan—posted on Facebook to say that “on Friday, we assemble.” Runyan’s words were a direct call to patriots in the Pacific NW to stand with citizens in Roseburg who have already made it clear that Obama is not welcome there for his planned visit on Friday. The call was regional…but the answer was national. The rally went viral. Not even the mainstream Obama cheering section can ignore it anymore.
In that 36 hours, 23,000 people have been invited on Facebook alone, not counting emails, Twitter, and other social media. Watching the incoming links on PHS yesterday, I counted no less than 26 various patriot, gun, and prepper forums who were discussing it. Almost 2,500 people are listed as “going” on Facebook with another 1,000 as “maybe.” A search on Facebook for posts about the rally net an astronomical number of results. To say that Runyan’s words sparked a firestorm is like saying Hillary is possibly a bit of a liar.
What really stands out about this rally isn’t just the national distaste for yet another narcissistic move by the naked emperor. It’s the patriots who already left from Ohio to make it to Oregon by Friday to stand with the citizens of Roseburg. It’s the guy who, on his own, collected a few hundred dollars from patriots across the country to provide high-quality signs for the rally. It’s the hundreds and hundreds of comments from people in every state…prayers and support from Tampa Bay to Anchorage, Honolulu to NYC. People offering money and resources and skills to make sure that the event is safe, responsible, and sends the right message—namely, that Obama is not welcome in Roseburg, Oregon.
In the interest of full disclosure, I’ll point out that I am not a resident of Roseburg, or even Oregon. I live in truly enemy territory—the Seattle area. I am helping to organize this event because I believe in it and I have experience doing it. I cannot imagine what Roseburg is going through, and the idea that Obama would swoop in and make his grand appearance there, to use yet another tragedy as filthy, bloody currency in his quest for total control…it fills me with an emotion I cannot describe.
There are naysayers about this rally, of course. There always are. Some don’t believe that the rest of the nation has the right to come and tell Obama he isn’t welcome. Some merely want him to show up to an empty town—a tall order in a city of 22,000. Some are worried about the fact that most of the patriots at this rally will be armed. Some think the mere act of protesting is disrespectful to a man who, however treasonous, is still the sitting President.
There is some merit to the idea that Roseburg, at its core, simply wants to be left alone to grieve. But as one commenter put it, the nation has stood by and watched the charade long enough. And at the crux of the issue is a twofold concept:
At what point does the President have the right to force himself on the People? Do the People not have the right to refuse him?
If Roseburg says, “Please don’t come. Please leave us alone and do not use us as fodder to disarm the gun owners in this country,” does Obama have the right to come anyway? To use massive taxpayer funds to literally force the people of Roseburg to be pawns in his goal of destroying liberty, even though many of them are the very gun owners he is trying to disarm? Is there anything even remotely moral about using a cowardly, horrifying act as currency, against the very people who were victims of it?
We the People say no, it is not moral. It is not right. It is not liberty. And We the People will stand at the Roseburg Rally on Friday—not to cause violence, not to wave our guns in the air and scream like children. We are gun owners and patriots. We carry firearms every day for the protection of ourselves and others, in defense of life and liberty, and Friday will be no different. But we are responsible, we are determined, and we will not falter.
The politicizing of cowardly acts stops now. The use of these acts against the American people stops now. On Friday, Obama will see that he, and his anti-liberty agenda, is truly not welcome in Roseburg—or anywhere else in this country. We have no other option but to stand. Visibly, resolutely, calmly, peacefully.
Roseburg’s children—and ours—deserve at least that.
I’m sure everyone will check their cell phones at the door. NOT!
Part of coordinating the protests is letting people know what to do. Posted on Defend Rosebur - Deny Barack Obama Facebook page:
Hi folks,
This rally has gone viral in less than 24 hours. While we appreciate the support, this means we need to make very clear what our goals are, and what the purpose of this action is.
1. The town of Roseburg has already made it incredibly clear that Obama is NOT welcome there, and they do not want him to come. He is choosing to ignore that.
2. Our purpose is NOT to broker a violent confrontation with government officials on any level. If that is your intent, do not attend. Anyone who comes and commits violent acts or attempts to cause chaos is NOT sanctioned by us.
3. Our purpose is very simple: We mourn with Roseburg, and we respect their wish to be left alone to mourn. They do not want Obama there, and the President does not have the right to force himself on the people. We as Americans and patriots will do our peaceful and non-violent best to ensure their wishes are respected.
4. We will not tell you how to carry or what to carry if you plan to bring firearms, although we politely suggest that you consider choosing a handgun instead of a rifle, if you plan to open carry. That being said, the SINGLE MOST IMPORTANT THING is that regardless of what you carry, that you do so safely, responsibly, and with the highest level of decorum and conduct.
As Washington wrote, “Remember that you are Freemen, fighting for the blessings of Liberty - that slavery will be your portion, and that of your posterity, if you do not acquit yourselves like men.”
The nation, and the world, is watching. Please, act accordingly.
Based on the “statements” of Roseburg’s “mayor” and “city council president” last night, I’d say the folks there need to have a recall election. These two a$$holes are clearly out of step with their residents. What a couple of weenies!
Will anyone be allowed to show the clocks that they “invented.”
Thanks for the post.

HOW MUCH TROUBLE ARE WE IN? CAN YOU SAY “EXISTENTIAL”??
The AME 'church' is a communist social club.
Very interesting. Still no destination in Oregon.
He’ll No,
I stand with Roseburg.
Yet.
“Just wondering what the SS will do when 0b0z0 shows up and people are wearing guns in support.”
If he is really going you can bet the SS is already there.
Gotta check those at the door too.
I am not sure what comparison(s) you are trying to make.
In the South Carolina case you had the AME Congregation speaking of forgiveness for the assailant. Hard to do, but certainly a Christian attribute to be admired. But the assailant was alive. In the Roseburg case the assailant was dead - so forgiveness from the Roseburg population was pointless. The dead man has a Judge to see.
The AME church allowed themselves to be used by a race-baiting, anti-American President. I am not sure they all were on board with getting used, but they allowed it (probably because the melanin content of his skin was 'close enough' to their own). The Roseburg people don't want to be used, and they want this anti-American President to stay away...
Is the latter point the contrast you are trying to make, or is it another point?
In the propaganda war, Obama won’t lose. If there are people carrying, he’ll just cancel as he reaches the exit for Roseburg. New reports: “President cancels goodwill visit to Roseburg because of right-wing threats of assassination.”
(cough “Ferguson” cough)
Not everyone in Oregon is a leftist. Many of us out in the rural areas are independents or conservatives, many! We just don’t scream, whine and yell like the city libs do, so Oregon gets painted with a broad liberal brush:(
Let them. Another Paul Wellstone ‘funeral’ will do the Democrats great harm.
I strongly believe in giving respect to the POTUS!!! But....not this one, Barack Hussein Obama!!! He has done nothing but harm the USA...”all” its people and is trying his utmost, evil, best to destroy our fine , once great, republic!!!
As a loyal American...I hate to see this, but, the good people of Oregon should send a clear message to POTUS, Obama that he is not welcome in their homes and town!!! All you have to do...is just be totally silent...with no indication that Obama is there at all. Everything this POTUS has touched or advocated, has worked to destroy our freedom, our liberty, our opporunities, our Individual contributions, etc., for “All” Americans, including HIspanics & especially, African-Americans!!! Obama is not one of us...that is for sure!!!
That is EXACTLY what they do-—all the time. The MSM “news” is Marxist agitprop since before Goebbels-—(for the useful idiots to control ‘feelings”)—it is all about the proper perceptions of the masses. They never allow “truth” if it doesn’t train a person to “feel” a certain way.
Their agenda is the Fichte/Wundtian wet dream from 1810.....to make everyone into non-thinking idiots/robots-—who “feel” everything, like non-rational animals, to be slaves of the state and herded and controlled and culled by the few masters/elites.
If they get total control of the internet, which they are working for 24/7-—we are doomed.
Our “window” for Wake-Up, is getting really, really tiny as Drudge recently stated. Freedom is just holding on by a thread in this country-——and if we don’t destroy Common Core and the whole “education” system (brainwashing system) and disconnect from the Tube and all the garbage the elites pump into our children/adults as “bread and circuses”-—the next generation of adults will have no concept of Freedom (and no concept of mother and father, wife or husband).
They will program puerile, superficial minds, like the obamalady or the Inca civilization-—slaves who had no concept of private property or Natural Rights from God-—etc. —and be just happy as a clam with a “free” phone. They will be like the serf and peasant minds which took THOUSANDS of YEARS to CHANGE———to get the American Revolution and the Christian idea of Individualism/Freedom from tyranny and “rulers” and the irrational, vile Mob (Democracy).
We should KNOW why it is the Christian Worldview being erased-—it created Individual Natural Rights from God and the Postmodernists who said “God is Dead” in the 19th century knew to create the Fichte slaves (through Mind control—operant conditioning of children) and censorship of Words/Ideas is the aim to erase them from the future generation.
We have to reinstate the “faith” that built this nation and condemn the satanist, islamic, pagan faiths being forced onto our children. We allow separation of only the Christian Faith——which is unconstitutional-—since faith is NOT a Church and “faith” is embedded into EVERY idea.
We have to understand how the twisting of Words and Language is HOW the Marxists got our children to believe that two males sodomizing each other is “normal” and “good”. (So irrational, as Fichte’s “snow is black” plan). The Leftists are flipping two thousand years of ethics for one which creates Slaves of Vice.....for without Virtue, (control of base emotions by Right Reason) we lose all freedom. (Aristotle/Cicero/Founders).
Roseburg gives me great hope that there are some “thinking” people who are sick of being pawns for the White, Christian genocide, which is occurring around the World to erase the Ideas of Indiviudalism for the “collective” (slave) tribal mindset in children. The speed to kill the Christian Worldview which created American Independence is getting rabid-—desperate. (Drudge just said they are getting desperate and have been coming after him and his website through the court about copyright law—because he is one of the FEW the Matrix can’t control. They mean to shut him down and all “Truth” on the internet will be next.)
Controlling concepts/ideas is what the Marxists are all about. We have to break OUT of this matrix now, like these brave Roseburg people are doing.
