1-11-02 Fresno, California Peacenik FReep
1-11-02

Posted on 01/11/2002 11:47:24 PM PST by mtngrl@vrwc

Three intrepid FReepers braved the cold and fog tonight to counter-protest the dozen or so peaceniks who continue to show up on the corner of Blackstone and Shaw every Friday night to protest the Bush administration and its war against terrorism.

When I arrived tonight there weren't any peaceniks to be seen on their regular corner and I hoped that maybe they had seen the light and decided to support the American troops and their mission in Afghanistan. Soon they showed up though, with the same old creepy "United against war" signs in hand, so we set up our signs and those driving by started showing that they agreed with us right away by honking and giving us the thumbs up.

Senorita had a really good idea this week. She put concrete around pieces of PVC pipe in coffee cans and then spray painted them all blue. We put our extra signs in these "sign holders" so that we could have them all showing, and it made our group more noticable. Great idea, Senorita!

We missed Jim Robinson and his family tonight and you too, JustAmy! We hope to see you all next week!

FReepers attending tonight's counter-protest were:

That has to be a real shake-up for the anti-Americans: A bunch of WOMEN out counterprotesting! I mean, aren't y'all represented by Eleanor Smeal and the rest of the NOW gang? How incongruous is that?

The seams of their lies are showing more evidently all the time.

Y'all ROCK!

I sure am glad to be living where there are relatively few idjuts to freep. I am amazed at what some of you folks in leftist parts of the country have to deal with.

Thanks from Atlanta.
