This is an update from an earlier thread City Paying the Price for Marines Protests in Berkeley.

Rally the Troops for the week-long counter-protests!!

So MUCH for Berkeley businesses trying to play on the nation’s sympathies to not BOYCOTT BERKELEY. They asked for it!

Before we know it Berkeley is gonna declare a “State of Emergency” to recover from their loss of revenue and police overtime.

how about protesting the protesters... at home?

how about parking cars in those spots now, and making sure they stay there so code pink can't get a spot?

how about a 'sit in' in their spots?

about about one of these for the roof tops?

All of those are good suggestions.

I especially like the last one... ray-guns from the rooftops.

Hey, they’re non-lethal so they should be legal, like mace and taser-guns... right?

If it is sunny have every protester bring a mirror and reflect it into the faces of the code pink so they get a code pink sun burn. You are not physically touching them so .....

I would also go buy a few dozen mice at a pet supply store and get your video cameras ready for youtube. Let them go in the middle of the protesting ladies and watch ( and video) the fun begin....

We've counter-Freeped leftists in Ft. Collins who twice held hate rallies outside our local recruiting office. We stood between them and the office. I had my "PLEASE DON'T FEED THE LEFTISTS" sign, along with my old Natl. Park Service "Smoky the Bear" style hat on. I forget what our other signs said.

But the best Freeper sign I've ever seen at a counter- protest at a recruiter office was in a photo of a sign held by the Columbia, MO Freepers as they faced off against leftists who were picketing a Missouri recruiting office, even threatening to enter and do a sit-in and get arrested. The Freeper's sign said:

BETTER MEN THAN YOU
HAVE WALKED
THROUGH THESE DOORS

""It's cost us $110,000 in police overtime (so far)," said Kamlarz.

Good. I hope it ends up costing the pinkos a million dollars.

"starting March 10, Code Pink is planning a 24-hour a day protest for an entire week"

These people need to get a real JOB. C'mon!

It looks like code pink will be shutting down quite a few businesses on Shattuck Blvd for that week.

Wonder if it will wake up the shopkeepers and get them to force the city to enforce the laws.

They need to take a giant public stand for the rule of law and our Military
