CodePink disrupts MAF's press conference exposing their attacks on recruiting centers
MichelleMalkin.com ^ | 3/14/2008

Posted on 03/14/2008 12:29:54 PM PDT by Jim Robinson

You guys won’t believe the scene at the National Press Club today.

We at Move America Forward were releasing our investigative report on the nationwide plague of attacks against military recruiting centers. (The Sedition Report)

Congressman John Carter (co-sponsor of the Semper Fi Act) was there speaking. So too was Debbie Lee, mother of the 1st Navy Seal killed in Iraq.

Then, midway through the news conference, members of Code Pink, International ANSWER and Global Exchange start heckling, screaming, yelling.

They said our claims of improper actions by anti-war radicals were all lies, that the anti-military activists have been nothing but peaceful.

They tried to shout down our speakers, and when we asked for security to remove them they refused to go, resulting in the forced eviction by security - despite their efforts to physically resist being removed.

Congressman Carter was whisked out for his safety and then the anti-war radicals chased down Congressman Carter’s staff. Soon thereafter as I was walking to another appointment I found myself stalked by the radicals who pulled up in a car yelling obscenities at me for daring to report on their disgusting conduct.

These people proved our point today! They did exactly what we’ve accused them of doing at military recruiting centers when they storm in, occupy the office, halt the work of recruiters and refuse to leave.

What angers me most is that these people don’t stop there. They’ve planted bombs at recruiting centers (not just Times Square but St. Lous too!). They pumped eight rounds of gunfire into the Denver military recruiting center. They’ve set fire to recruiting centers in San Jose, CA and Asheville, NC.

And that’s just the tip of the iceberg. The complete report - including citation where their supporters cheer on the acts of violence - and our new national ad campaign focusing on this issue are at the Move America Forward website: http://www.MoveAmericaForward.org

I’m attaching a photo of one of the anti-war radicals who stood up, stripped off his clothes to reveal a pink jacket, and began screaming down our speakers at the news conference.

Folks - we struck a nerve. These people DO NOT want their seditious behavior exposed. Well, that makes me even MORE determined to do just that, and I know it will have the same effect on you as well!

Who the hell ARE all these seventh-graders? (Besides budding treasonous seditionists, I mean.)

Soap and water will get rid of them. They avoid it at all costs.

The Berkeley Socialist Indoctrination Center, er, I mean public high school is right across the street from the park where the CodePinkO protest was held. They let their brainwashed terrorists in training out for the day to join the protest. I believe they got extra credit for protesting against the Marines. I think bootcamp could help some of these punks become men. Well, maybe not. They'd probably washout.

These folks are professional disruptors. They live to get on tv being escorted out of government and press club buildings They have educational sessions on how to make the most of ‘getting escorted out.” They live in a house a few blocks from the Capitol. They roam the Congressional office buildings at all hours. They are supported by radical California congressfolks and others.

They even protest democrats who are ont overtly far enough leftwing.

Re photo of the “woman”. I think she is known as “the pink pussy cat.”

Just look at her pants and you’ll know what I mean.

The “tats” at a nice touch but the hairdo has to go.

Meowww! Purrrr! Lick! (Oops, sorry about the last one)

This picture is such a metaphor.

These people recruit young people because their minds are not mature enough to realize the BS they are spouting.

These people use a megaphone because since they cannot win the war of ideas based on reason, they attempt to use amplification to win their “debate”.

Lastly, and most telling, these people are such cowards that many find it necessary to hide behind masks and other concealments.

It would be laughable, if it didn't pose such a threat to our country.

I should point out that much of this does not apply to the Code “Pinkos”, but that is because they are ‘60s hippies who have never outgrown their bra burning, Woodstock stomping, drug using life style.

Thanks for standing up for America, Jim.

Understood...
Who they are... how they operate.. who supports them.
And most of all...
They are COMMITTED to their tactics!

**************

But...IMHO...

All we have to do is be smarter than these types...

Anticipate them -- only one step ahead will do...

For example...
MAF might have credentialed the press reps for attending this event...
No permission slip - no admission -- step aside...

And we just ramp it up until they get the message...
That trying to be sharp in the wrong flat around here.... Could get someone arrested & prosecuted...(quite preferable!)

Or more than a little bruised...

To bad my daughter doesn’t go there she would have protested for the military.

I bet though she wouldn’t have gotten any extra credit for it.

publicly go after the source of their funds
“special interest groups” and rich communist individuals
bring them and CodePink’s actions into the public spotlight
show them for what they really are: communists
their support will buckle with the public outcry (support our troops)

why cover your face
are you embarrassed by your actions?
do you fear the “police state”?
are you looking to start trouble?
or do you just think it makes you look cool?

if you do said yes to any of these please get the hec out of our country and go have tea with your frenchy-french friends

“Why cover your face?”

I don't know California law, nor Berkley City ordinances, but here in Maryland there is a law on the books, dating to the days of the KKK revival in the 1920’s, forbidding the wearing of masks concealing the face during political demonstrations.

Since the neo-anarchists make it a badge of their paranoia to wear masks or hoods, and cover-up clothes, I think we should lobby strenuously for the authorities to enforce this law. Protesters with their identities hidden should be arrested on sight, and be hauled away to booking and holding areas as far from the protest sites as possible, locations with very limited access to public transportation.

I’m obviously still parusing the posts here, but I think that is an excellent idea...

And it shouldn’t be lost over time on this issue...

I would propose Jim or one of the upper eschelons make that a “sticky”, or link of its own, like some other hot button issue like some of the other items we see up at the top of these pages on this website...

Getting that info shouldn’t be a problem, anyone of us could probably find it, its keeping it readily available to review, thats the thing I’d be concerned about...

#####

The leaders of these protest groups have unlimited funds, and the support of commited lawyers. If you ever see a photo of someone wearing a green ballcap or vest, you are seeing an on-the-spot lawyer watching every move that the LEOs are making.

“We” have working folks who try to oppose them, but do not have the fulltime ability and organization to do so.
