Hundreds of people gathered at both ends of Meridian Hill Park in Northwest Washington for a peace rally sponsored by the D.C Antiwar Network.
But there were interlopers: Thirteen members of ProtestWarror, supporting the Bush administration and its policies in Iraq. When the Bush supporters arrived, about 20 black-clad, self-described anarchists emerged from the crowd, shouting profanity and epithets and demanding that they leave the peace rally.
When the Bush supporters refused to leave, the anarchists tore the sign out of the Bush supporters' hands and stomped on them. When ProtestWarrior leader Gil Kobrin objected, several male anarchists knocked him to the ground, kicking him in the back and punching him. Other anarchists punched and shoved Kobrin's 12 colleagues.
After D.C. Antiwar Network members broke up the fight, the Bush supporters heeded their order to leave the park. Kobrin then called D.C. police, who are now guarding them at the entrance of the park as they hold up their pro-war signs. "We're going to hang tight," Kobrin said. "We're expressing our freedom of speech just as they are expressing theirs
They're not called "anarchists" for nothing.
Party of Peace, aye.
There's no word in our language to describe these people. Words escape me!
I hope they have film of this. The DC police need to make arrests for assault and battery. Not to mention the various civil rights statutes which have been broken (heh). So much for peacenicks. Bah.
Love how the peace lovers promote peace.
BTTT For the Protest Warriors. Where were the police? Don't apprecaite the "interlopers" remark.
Yeah, the way the KGB or the National Socialists express their freedom of speech.
God bless the Protest Warriors. These are brave dudes.. the stench alone of the DU growd must have been overwhelming.
At a "peace" rally.
Those PW guys are great.
Next time PW might want to bring along some bigger guys. I have a feeling I would have snapped some bones.

Animals came to mind, but animals behave better than these thugs.
This is what they call a peace rally!
I so wish I were there. Six foot Four twoeighty- five and no fat. Would have like to kick some ass for Bush.
FReepin' ping!
(Grrrr!)
elequent example of why the 2nd amendment should be protected. Think these anarchist would have gotten out of line if the protest warriors were packing?
We keep forgetting that freedom of speech is only for liberals. Amazing how violent those "anti-war" moonbats get when someone expresses a different opinion, ain't it.
Here in S.F., there were protestors with posterboards of pictures of our dead Iraqi heroes. I asked them if they had permission to use their photographs from their families. They said they didn't need it. Whipped out my cell phone, "pretended" to take their pictures, and said I'd be plastering them all over several pro-Bush websites today. Oh my my my, their tinfoil heads were glowing. I simply walked away saying "President Bush. President Bush. President Bush. Bye bye Moonbats."
