The purpose of this thread will be to pool our resources and ideas to counter the attempted take-over of our nations capital and foreign policy.
It is not the place to voice your disgust with those that feel it is necessary to present a street presence to counter the dregs of society seeking to undermine and destroy our country and our leadership. If that is your purpose, please move along.
On January 27, 2007, Thunder90 posted a thread to advise us of the next convergence on our nations capital by the anti-American hate-mongers. This gives us SEVEN WEEKS to organize and strategerize.
While reading Thuder90s thread and the AAR from the DC Chapters counter demonstration last Saturday, January 27th, you will find inquiries in regard to transportation, hotels, metro lines and the like. There were also a number of Freepmails discussing these issues.
For those interested in making our presence known in Washington, DC on March 17, 2007 please feel free to offer what you can.
· If you are driving and have room for others, let us know the general vicinity you will begin the trip. I have an offer now of someone willing to pay for half the gas to share a ride.
· We already have offers of rooms/beds for those that need a place to stay. We can always use more!
· Perhaps you can rally enough interest in your area that renting a van or chartering a bus would be worthwhile. Let us know and we will see if that can be arranged.
· Those that live in the greater DC area or will have a vehicle at your disposal may be able to help shuttle folks from hotels or metro stations.
· We may need wheel chairs and those to push them.
· Those that have blogs, talk shows, columns or access to others that do please share!
Any specifics should be discussed via FReepmail!

There are no formal plans at this time. Why plan a big rally/counterdemonstration if no one plans to attend?
Rest assured the DC Chapter faithful, with assistance from local citizens and troops, will be in DC on March 17th between 11:00 AM and however long it takes to ensure our presence is known.
The question is WILL YOU BE THERE?
Hopefully the lefties didn't get the permit for the wall. If they did, we will not legally be able to defend the wall.

Today??? Is there some other place that one is supposed to eat?
Yep! I did it again!!! ;*)
Today's picture
A fellow Marine (The Canadian Viet Nam vet) sends.
Today is the anniversary of Iwo Jima
What is the weather (generally) like in mid-March in DC?
Is there a "uniform of the day"?
Is there any contingency plan if the yellow-bellied lying scumbag peaceniks don't show?
Should we plan our own march just in case?
Grrrr, that photo just makes my blood boil.
I want to be there, but I just can't be. But I will be praying very mightily for "The Gathering of Eagles".
I heard it mentioned on Rush's show (stand-in) today! Woo Hoo! I hope this thing just gets gigantic, and the media will NOT be able to hide it.
How come "gatheringofeagles" is not in the "Popular Keywords" list in the upper right hand corner of the forum?
Thanks for the ping. Been at work till 11PM. Did not realize today was the anniverary date for Iwo Jima. So many brave and couragous Sailors and Marines lost their lives on that damn pile of volcanic rock. But we have the great symbol our Marines display to the world of the flag raising. They did not die in vain. Japan is now a staunch allie, a peacefull nation. The American might out of righteness brought that nation forward from a war society to one that contributes many good things to the world.
Is there a time and place arranged for FReepers to meet up?
The America haters want to march on St. Patrick's day?
They're claiming it's the date of the 40th anniversary of the anti-war march on Pentagon. I'm not that interested in their history to research/verify their claim as to the exact date but it truly isn't important. They're gonna be there and so are we.
You might want to send JANB a FreepMail with that question.
Just sent my request to be added to the Ping list.
Long haul from Montana, but I'll get there one way or another....
FYI, the Gathering of Eagles site ain't functioning this morning for me. Anybody else have that problem?
Thank you.
Outstanding additions Cobra! Thank you for your continuing efforts!!!
