Move America Forward, the largest pro-troop grassroots organization in the country, is going on offense in the situation involving our Military Recruiters in Berkeley, Ca. and across the United States. It is long past time for the US government to involve itself in finding, arresting, and prosecuting those people responsible for attacking our service men and women involved in recruiting efforts to protect our country.
This Monday, we are going to the office of US Attorney Joseph Russoniello (First District of Northern California) to demand immediate action. It is our fervent hope that other government entities will take action in jurisdictions where assaults, battering, slapping, and other civil rights infringements have taken place. Heres our press release. Link now available at www.moveamericaforward.com
Pro-Troop Group Demands of US Attorney: Investigate Anti-American Activities in Berkeley
City Accused of Encouraging Interference with Federal Officers
SAN FRANCISCO---A law firm representing a pro-troop organization has sent a letter to the U.S. Attorney in San Francisco asking the federal government to investigate whether the Berkeley City Councils official anti-Marine position and encouragement of anti-war groups to impede the work of Marine recruiters constitutes a breach of law. If the City Council violated the law, the letter asks the U.S. Attorney to prosecute the perpetrators.
The letter was drafted by the attorney for pro-troop organization Move America Forward (website: www.MoveAmericaForward.org), which is the nations largest pro-troop grassroots nonprofit. The correspondence also voices concerns that the Berkeley Police were unresponsive and negligent to public safety during a protest the group organized in Berkeley on Feb. 12, 2007. The original copy has already been mailed and an additional copy will be hand-delivered Monday morning with a press conference immediately following.
We will explore every avenue to ensure that Marine Corps personnel are not harassed for simply doing their jobs, especially not by a city government, said Catherine Moy, Executive Director of Move America Forward.
Move America Forward has been active in organizing demonstrations as well as several ad campaigns rebuking the Berkeley City Council since they called Marine Recruiters uninvited and unwelcome intruders at a Jan. 29 council meeting. The council also reserved a publicly funded parking space and gave free sound permits to a radical anti-war group protesting the office.
That is a blatant misuse of tax dollars and a violation of civil rights said Moy, referring to the privileges granted to Code Pink, the antiwar group that received special treatment from the council.
We have been fighting them all the way and this is simply the next step, said Melanie Morgan, Move America Forwards co-founder. Morgan is also demanding that Berkeleys mayor give a full and official apology to all military personnel, veterans, and their families, and rescind the resolutions giving special treatment to Code Pink. Berkeley has got to realize that were not going away, Morgan concluded.

Breaking news?
And as much as I despise Berkeley, this seems pretty frivolous to me.
Can’t we all just meet in Berkeley with torches instead? Wouldn’t it be easier just to burn down city hall?..../sarc
I suspect the frog thought the same thing, as he was lowered into the tepid water filled pot over the flame.....
Try to see these groups and their actions, as the Camel's nose going beyond peeking under the tent -- soon to bring his stinking mass into the interior....
Limits are being tested..
Resolve is being tested..
Levels of tolerance are being tested..
I for one, am ready to draw the line and whack every damned offensive SOB that gets in my face..
No more free kicks for the leftist %^$%^$#%$, time to kick back -- severely.
A big pat on the back for you.
It's happening all over the country, not just Berkeley.
In Washington, DC just last week the police stood around and watched while laws were broken and people were assaulted.
You do have a point, many people are just fine with this inaction of those responsible of enforcing the Rule of Law when it involves our Military being attacked.

I believe you could call it breaking news when some one asks those entrusted with enforcing laws to do their job. |
You are the problem.
We must eliminate the problem to end its vexation
Orwell was right.
I would agree with your assessment...news, yes. Breaking News....no. Someone has been watching too much FNC where everything is breaking news.
Given that he knew Wells, the Huxleys, and various members of the Round Table, I'd say he had an inside track.
Thought you would like that after your little dig at Morgan:
Someone has been watching too much FNC where everything is breaking news.

Monday morning I am marching into my suburban garage, jamming the key into my ignition, and slamming on the gas in my Big Honkin' SUV that burns an (alleged) large hole in the ozone. Fair warning to morning commuters on Highway 101: This agitated supporter of our troops will be flooring it straight towards the San Francisco Federal building on 450 Golden Gate Avenue. I will be stylishly attired in my American bling (consisting of my Flag lapel pin, dog tags and a few pearls to set off the ensemble) to make certain demands of our United States government, during a press conference at 10:00 a.m. I, and others, will present a formal letter to Mr. Joseph Russoniello which says this:
The time is right now to end the violent attacks on our military, and their supporters. We have amply documented these attacks in 'The Sedition Report.' Susan Duclos has reported this story at Digital Media.com here. Michelle Malkin has been a leader in this effort from the beginning. Read here. EaglesUp, Gathering of Eagles, Families United, Vets For Freedom, Freedom's Watch and dozens of other pro-troop organizations are anxiously awaiting the response of the U.S. Attorneys office. So is the rest of America. Mr. Russoniello, what is your response?
|
Good job, Melanie. We'll be waiting to see what response you got!
