This is a quick post to provide an after action report for the DC Chapter Freep of Code Pink at Walter Reed. It was a night to remember and I did not want to keep everyone waiting. There will be a full report with all pictures later on in the week.
It was a normal but cooler night as everyone arrived for another evening of countering Code Pink. Down the street came the sound of a single motorcycle. The Rolling Thunder scout arrived to announce the news of more bikes to follow. The first scout went accross the street to talk with the Code Pinkos. The police came rolling down the street. We are not sure the exact details of what went on over there but it was not pretty in pink (land). The scout was asked by the police to come back over to our side.
The rest of the Rolling Thunder group arrived and they parked right in front of Code Pink. Gael Murphy had a fit and the police were very nice. They ask the guys from Rolling Thunder to move to our side. The bikers walked back over to their side a few times just to taunt them. When they went over to the otherside we would chant, "Hug A Vet".
Gael had a group meeting at the end and she was mad as a wet hen.
prayers and good wishes for your son and your family.
"Hey! Sweet Pea!"
bttt
LOL! Thanks for the link!
Oh dear! Prayers for him and your family said, and will continue to do so.
They still have approx. 2 months left on their permit.
Grrrrr ... it right!
As you can see, they are simply vicious. They are the ones on the left, whose signs read, respectively, "[heart] SOLDIERS [heart] [pix of soldiers]", "WE [heart] YOU", "Support the TROOPS AND THE WAR!!", "RED WHITE BLUE", and, most shockingly, "THANK YOU to our BRAVE VOLUNTEERS!!" It's scandalously aggressive -- Democrat Senators should use taxpayer funds to expose this heedless aggression.
The full report will be up later in the week, and will be announced on the sidebar.
We'll miss you too. You looked great in your stars 'n' stripes sweater. Have a safe trip!
Yes, maybe the Code Pink web site would like to piss off Rolling Thunder. Here are some of them in the Pentagon parking lot.
Right on La Enchiladita!
Drive those Coders off the corner with their little pink tails between their legs.
Man, what I wouldn't give to go there sometime.
/thinking of what my sign will say and how I am going to get there.
Have a safe trip and come back soon!
The members of Rolling Thunder who visited our side on Friday night sure did liven things up, didn't they?
Squeegee Boy and Gael seemed flustered, though.
Poor babies.
I'll be looking for it, Albion; and probably tomorrow I'll upload the pix I took, so you can link them throughout your report. Thank you for taking on the job (and taking roll last night).
"When will the next Civil War start?"
As soon as I can save enough money for a Harley?
I hope they don't show up in pink diapers.
Tell your bro to come on out and join the fun!! It's time for paybacks for the commie's bad behavoir in the 60's. I came all the way from Texas for the Sept 9 freep after watching these guys have fun all summer!! The freepers extended unmatched hospitality!! I'll be back in October for another fun filled Friday night. I hope to see your bro there! It's the best 3 hours I've spent all year.
Thank you so much for the ping to this thread! Congrats to all the Freepers and the Rolling Thunder members on an excellent job! Thank you so much for taking the time to stand for all of us who can't make it to these events!!!
