DC Chapter co-leader kristinn has confirmed that we shall continue FReeping the Code Pinkos every Friday night until they stop their obscene blood dance outside the hospital of our war-wounded. If you agree with me that it is outrageous for Code Pinkos to demonstrate at a hospital with war-wounded troops inside, please come out and join us in a peaceful counter-protest.
One of the amputees told me weeks back that he doesn't want other wounded troops coming into Walter Reed and seeing only the Code Pinkos at the gates. He explained that the FReeper presence there was extremely important to counter the Pinkos. Please join us and be a part of our peaceful counter-protest to Code Pink.
Please don't let the troops think that regular Americans are too busy with TV, ballgames, movies and other recreation to peacefully counter America-hating leftists.
Being there with us in spirit is great, but we need people to hold the MOAB (Mother of all banners), other signs, and flags. Maybe you can't come every week, but please make it your patriotic duty to join us at least once in the near future.
As always, the DC Chapter's rules for protesting will be in effect.
Briefly, they are: No violence. No profanity. No racism. No provocations. Obey the law. Treat all law enforcement officers with respect.
Start at 7:30 pm and go to about 10 pm.
Walter Reed Army Medical Center, 7200 Georgia Ave., at Elder St., NW
Code Pinkos have been setting up on the southwest corner of the Georgia Ave/Elder St intersection. We've been setting up on the northeast corner across the street from Walter Reed's entrance gate.
FReepmail me or post a reply to get on or off the list.
Injured Walter Reed patients, including amputees, have repeatedly told us how important it is for us to be there to counter Code Pink.
Please read the quotes from the double amputee Walter Reed patient in red in the report above and decide if you want to help counter the Pinkos.
If we can sufficiently outnumber the leftists often enough, embarrassment may cause the leftists to stop these outrageous morale-damaging ("Maimed for a lie" is one of their signs) demonstrations at the hospital.
The same FReepers are doing almost all of the these FReeps. We do so gladly as a labor of love for our brave troops fighting terrorists over there, instead of waiting for the terrorists to come here. We FReep especially for those wounded in combat. However, some FReepers' family vacations or other obligations may prevent some of them from coming this next Friday.
Our troops are bold enough to face bullets, mortars, IEDs, and suicide bombers. Are you bold enough to get out from behind the keyboard, FReep in person, and stand up for the wounded troops at Walter Reed?
If you're in the DC area and don't have family or work considerations that keep you from FReeping, can you spare a few hours on a Friday night? Will you?
These posts are some of the best reads in FR lately.
What kind of car was Gael Murphy driving? Was it economical? Was it made from recycled 2-liter bottles?
But surely there must be aa way to offer some sort of bounty for information leading to the identifation of the Facist leader...and perhaps find his funding source.
If he's a staffer for some liberal congress man, it would sure be embarrasing. That shirt is too well pressed for this to be some college punk.
I thank all of you for your dedication and perseverance in spending every Friday night outside of WRMC supporting our brave troops.
Awesome! BTTT!
Great report, Bill!
Bumpity-bump.
You worked through the night to help make my best morning "read" in years!!
Thank You!
I laughed out loud at the G'itmo comments and realized it was a real G'itmo night. Shirts, fans and bracelets all in the same week!
Good report. My pics later today.
Fabulous report! The green shirt demonstrator is unclear on the meaning of DEMONSTRATE --- SHOW!
Show means to have people look at.
I guess a CSPAN camera would be acceptable to him, but not a citizen camera.
Braindead!
Great stuff, Bill. Thanks for getting the thread up so quickly. It was definitely worth fighting Friday evening traffic to have that soldier jump out of his friend's car just to shake all our hands and thanks us (how ironic!) for being there. And thanks to whoever bought the pizza, since I missed dinner! :-)
The troops know we're out there and appreciate our presence.
Come on down! I think you'll find too many U.N. groupies on our side of the street.
BillF,
thanks for posting and reporting and making my first and second freep a memorable one.
after a rocky start with weather and traffic playing havoc with attendance, i was a bit nervous for a bit wondering if i was to stand signless against the great unwashed. i was planning to just capture their antics on video and make a mockery of their actions, but fortunately the troops arrived. i took minimal pictures from a distance and will try and post them, but was content to hold a flag and witness the remarkable counter-protesting of the acclaimed dc chapter.... they truly do rock the house.
when tgsltakoma showed with the banners and flags and kristinn finally picked up the megaphone, my patriotic arteries flushed with american gumption and pride. the lefts' chants of jeepers, creepers, it's nothing more than freepers' showed they were taken aback and intimidated, not by numbers, but by the dedication and sincerity of the message. support for the men and women who serve to defend our way of life.
while the left touted the recruiters faults, us freepers reinforced the need for a strong front. and although the number of honks for support were greatly in the lefts favor, their message was touted by the hate and disdain they fester for all things american. their objections to photographs show they know that their message is one of hate and anti-american. they fear retribution for they are a vindictive lot. the tall well dressed leftist flashed me the finger as if to clarify what was truly in his heart.
at the wrmc freep, al coda pinko did set up early, but they never possessed the numbers to out flank our freep. their two corner split weakened the effect they were trying to gain, and our two corners were packed. i felt honored to hold one leg of the MOAB, which was talked about by the left as to why they didn't think of doing something like that.
i took little video of this event as sun was setting and the al coda pinko numbers were minimal for such a major part of the early hours... some pinkos that might have joined saw our vast numbers and didn't stop to join their brethren in hate... my take on their disappointing remarks as they drove by... "you've gotta be ****ing kidding me, this sucks"
freepers received the majority of support honks and were the recipients of far greater honors... several drive bys stopped, one actually got out and shook the hands and thanked all on one corner for being there... several stayed through their green lights to talk and thanked us... and then the highlight of the evening, the young mp from mississippi, saluted, literally our efforts to counter the illegitimates outside his hospital.
his heart was true and his sacrifice great, his disdain for the people on the other side of the street threatened to darken his soul, but his trip across to the freep zone did well his heart and the hearts of all who held a position in counter-protest.
God bless that young man and all who need to be at wrmc.
i will be on the counter line again whenever i can... the dc chapter holds a prestigious place among the freepers... i am honored that i could make this one/two and recommend all who can, do, for my heart was encouraged by the faces of those who serve for the defense of the USA.
thanks DC Chapter for a job well-done.

I was so looking forward to being with you at Walter Reed on Friday, I came THIS close to quitting my job when a last minute assignment interfered. Alas, it helps to keep Dominion Power happy too. Will plan to go this Friday.
Brilliant! Thanks for a great post with photos and congrats on another successful mission. Area FReepers, keep up the great work. I wish I lived near you.
