San Diego FReep of Code Pink, 3/18/06 from 12 to 4 pm, At Balboa Park
indepundit ^ | 3/14/06 | Smash

OPERATION PROUD BANNER

WHO: Anyone who supports our country, our military, and their mission (sponsored by San Diego Protest Warrior).

WHAT: A peaceful demonstration of support and gratitude for our armed forces.

WHEN: Saturday, March 18, 2006, 12 to 4pm.

WHERE: San Diego, west end of Balboa Park, near Sixth Avenue and Maple St. (map)

WHY: To bear witness to the heated rhetoric of the so-called 'peace movement,' and to provide a calm rebuttal to their anti-American message.

HOW: Bring American flags (or flags of our allies) of any size. Signs expressing support or gratitude for our military are also welcome.

We will be in close proximity to the anti-war demonstrators, but we will remain physically separated from them and WE will behave with dignity.

We expect to be outnumbered ten-to-one. It hardly seems fair...

For the other side, that is!

This is the big one! We need all hands on deck.

This Saturday, March 18, The San Diego Coalition for Peace & Justice will hold another 'peace festival' in Balboa Park, marking the third anniversary of the liberation of Iraq.

They will not be alone.

Pinging everyone I know that can come out and help us! If you know someone that would be able to join us and I have missed them, please ping them to this thread!

Bring your flags. You know how that always flusters those Code Oinkers!

Hiya! I was heading over to the Mark thread and thought I better put this up first. Boy are my skills rusty! Took me forever and now I'm probably 300 posts behind! *sigh*

Is it okay to bring a giant banner that says "PACIFISTS SUCK!"?

LOL! The plan is actually to keep it positive and fly our glorious flag in their faces and use signs that support the military.

I do like your idea though!

Understood, but I'm too far to make the trip anyway as I live near Chicago.

I do like to stop by and visit the half dozen protesters who are out "in number" every Friday evening in DeKalb, Illinois holding their pathetic "war is not the answer" and "no blood for oil" signs. I enjoy politely asking them questions such as:

If trying to negotiate with a genocidal dictator fails, then when does war become the answer?

Does your torrence for another culture extend to a group of religious zealots who have vowed to exterminate everyone who doesn't worship Allah the way they believe is the only way?

Why didn't I see you self proclaimed pacifists out here protesting against war in 1998 and waving signs saying "no blood for blow jobs" when President Clinton was bombing Kosovo against the wishes of the United Nations in order to remove Slobodon Melosevic from power?


I never got any coherent answers.

That is always the absolute best way to talk to these nut jobs! You can't get a coherent answer from them even if you ask if the sun rises!

I will try hard to be there. However, I just got some disturbing news at the dr. regarding the likely return and spread of my cancer (prayers welcomed) and am a little freaked out right now.

If I'm feeling up to it, I'll be there.
