Counter Protest March 17th, 2007 At the Wall

We are not going to allow this to happen if we have to stand 20 deep around the WALL.

This letter will be going all over the Internet...to all the major Veteran groups...please spread this far and wide.

This was posted on another group. In case you think it's of little importance, they are formimg up at THE WALL! In case you think these are a bunch of loonies with nothing better to do on St. Patrick\'s Day, think again. Here is a link to the groups involved (They are NOT the Boy Scouts) and to their website. Be sure to check out the t-shirts they are selling, especially the Che Guevera one. It is my opinion that it is time to plan a St. Patricks Day Road Trip, and Lock & Load, at least in the verbal sense and protect a very Sacred and Special Place. I am not saying we should express any opinion on the war, that is for each of us to decide.

What I am saying is how many of us want Jane Fonda, Cindy Sheehan, FMLN (Farabundo Marti National Liberation Front) USA, Vietnam Veterans Against the War Anti-Imperialist, Welfare Warriors, All India Anti-imperialist Forum, Muslim Student Association West, Berkeley Fellowship UU\'s Social Justice, Gay Liberation Network - Chicago; B. Ross Ashley co-founder Union of American Exiles-1968* Toronto, and hundreds of other far left, Anti American Organizations to use The Wall as a focal point for their own Private Agendas? Yes, we all served to protect their Freedom of Speech, but if their oblivious use of this Sacred Ground to garner more Media Coverage goes un-challenged, surely the Spirits of our Dead Brothers and Sisters on The Wall will cry out in pain.

PLEASE TAKE THE TIME TO READ THIS LIST! http://answer.pephost.org/site/News2?abbr=ANS_&page=NewsArticle&id=8137

To All Vietnam Veterans, Veterans, Military, and True Americans

Please forward this information to all Veterans, Military, and clear thinking Americans that you know...these Un-American Morons and worse, are intending to use "The Wall" as their starting point of their Anti-War March on March 17th.

Contact the Dept of the Interior, the DC Park District, your Congressmen and Senators. Ask them to close the Wall for repairs on that day. It is against the law to protest at any of the Memorials in DC.

I have been in contact with the Dept of the Interior and they did want to see the above website and wording because the protestors do have a permit to gather, but NOT a permit to gather at the WALL. I am waiting for their reply. I also contacted both of my Senators and my Congressman and asked them to pressure the DC Park District to fence off the WALL area for "Repairs" on the 17th of March.

If none of this works let's be there to keep them away. The Wall is HALLOWED GROUND. They have no right to soil it in this manner. If they throw paint on the WALL like they did the steps to the Capitol there will have HELL to pay! Just there presence is insulting! Pass this on and on and on and on!
