REDLANDS FREEP #15 4/25/08 "A Hug And A Thank You"

Posted on 04/26/2008 5:21:26 PM PDT by Victory Rocks

With Kelly having to work late and Mary unable to come out, this Friday's FReep was a one man operation.

Despite being by myself I still had a lot of fun. I managed to get more honks than the moonbats did, despite being outnumbered and got a few great comments and even a hug from folks walking by.

At first an older lady walking by asked me if she could give me a hug. I accepted and she then told me her husband was a Navy officer and she was happy to see someone standing up for our side.

Later a couple of ladies were about to turn right when the passenger told me she was a Jewish conservative who supports Israel and this country's efforts to stop the threat of jihad. She then thanked me and told me the moonbats don't have a clue.

Finally as the end of the day's FReep drew near a young man walked up to me. He said he had met me a year ago and was serving in the Army and had just come back from Iraq. After a few seconds of thinking, I finally remembered seeing him on the bus about a year and a half ago when I was coming home from protesting the hippies. He and a couple of other passengers asked me about my pro troop signs. When I explained I was counter protesting the moonbats downtown he told me he had joined the Army and was going in to basic training in a week. It was good seeing him again and after we talked for a little bit he thanked me and said he appreciated what I was doing.

I have only a few pics this time but I jazzed up the ones with the moonbats for your enjoyment.

I enjoyed this FReep and if any Inland Empire FReepers and Lurkers would like to join us we meet on Fridays at 4:30 PM on the Northeast corner of Redlands Blvd. and Orange St. in Redlands Ca.

Our rules are no violence, racism, sexism, or profanity. Obey the law and treat law enforcement with respect. Good hearted verbal engagement is always welcome though.

Intersection of Orange St and Redlands Blvd, Redlands CA

I just looked at the map....I was just up the street from there this afternoon at the American Legion at a US Submarine Veterans luncheon. Don’t think I could make it there every Friday...but I’ll be FReeping along side you in spirit!

VR - need to plug another thread for those who can't make it to your FReep and others.

For all those who can't make it to a FReep and haven't seen this yet, StarCMC needs your help.

StarCMC has a thread called "Smacking Down the YouTube Terrorists (A little help needed)" and here is the April 26 list of the most recent videos that need to be smacked down. StarCMC even has helpful hints on the post.

These guys look like the Moon Bats that sit on the corners of Foothill and Haven (Rancho Cucamonga, CA) on late Friday afternoons.

Great job! Thanks for standing up against those moonbats every Friday, even when you are alone. All it takes is one patriot to outdo those moonbats. Quality over quantity.

Loved the way you jazzed up those pictures! Keep up the great job!
