ACTION ALERT: Gen. Tommy Franks In Richmond VA 11-13-04 Protests Planned
The Richmond Forum ^ | 11-10-04 | Flora McDonald

Posted on 11/10/2004 12:35:31 PM PST by Flora McDonald

A great American Hero is coming to Richmond, VA this weekend – GENERAL TOMMY FRANKS! He will be speaking at the Landmark Theatre on Saturday, Nov. 13, 2004. Soldiers in the Fort Lee Army Band will be performing.


Thanks to OXENinFLA!

Instead of a ticker tape parade, they will be met with a protest staged by Denizens of the Dark - the toxic tofu twits from Food Not Bombs who slander General Franks as a war criminal and worse. “The role he has played in u.s. military aggression, through illegal, unilateral, and pre-emptive war is a crime against humanity,“ they whine.

Come join fellow patriots from the red state of Virginia in greeting and welcoming General Franks and the Ft. Lee soldiers.
WHEN: Saturday, Nov. 13th, 6:45 P.M.
WHERE: Richmond’s Landmark Theatre (the Mosque to older Richmonders), front entrance, 6 North Laurel Street (across the street from Monroe Park)
DIRECTIONS
INFO ABOUT THE EVENT

Your either with us or against us.
Tommy is our man, and the protesters
will be seen as treasonous commies.

I used to feel sorry for the useful idiots (misinformed, young, bad education, etc.) but invincible ignorance wears on my patience like a sandblaster these days.

I will be there to show support for the General and our Troops.

Those who refuse to support and defend a state have no claim to protection by that state. Killing an anarchist or a pacifist should not be defined as "murder" in a legalistic sense. The offense against the state, if any, should be "Using a deadly weapon inside city limits," or "Creating a traffic hazard," or "Endangering bystanders," or other misdemeanor.

For those of you who have served in the U.S. Military - thank you from the bottom of my heart.

It is awful that some of our fellow citizens feel impelled to denigrate and condemn good men who have sacrificed so much in defense of a free society.

Yes, anarchists and socialists have the right to demonstrate and speak out. American soldiers have protected that right with their lives for over 200 years.

Knowing that they are aided and abetted by a left-wing press and the demoralizing effect this can have on our Troops, it is imperative that normal Americans speak out also. We have to be on hand when the cameras start rolling.

Even if we are ridiculed in the press, decent people know our intent and our military and their families know that America still cares and supports them.

The really dangerous radicals are the older ones who fly under the radar so speak and do the organizing. Most of the younger ones are clueless and enjoy the party atmosphere of street theater and demos, gladly spouting the party line in hopes of impressing the cute young thing marching alongside.

Many of them will straighten up a few years down the road when they are confronted with REAL LIFE and RESPONSIBILITY and no doubt will be ashamed of what they have done. Not all of them but enough to keep this a Red State country and not an appendage of the U.N.

I'll be there if Tim can walk; he has a full marathon Sat.

I share your belief that these scum are not worthy. This man is saving their A$$'S and yet they have no respect. They are unbelievable!!

I wish him a good race. As far as being able to walk after a marathon...I'd be flat out at room temperature.
