“Escort And Honor Ride”: Bikers Rally Today For WWII Vets At Closed Memorial
Gateway ^ | October 5, 2013 | Rachel Pulaski

Posted on 10/05/2013 8:20:54 AM PDT by george76

Today, from 9am to 11am, bikers will be rallying at Washington D.C.’s WWII Memorial that has been closed to the public due to the federal government shutdown. The bikers plan to honor the WWII veterans and show their support.

...

Riders!…Kick Stands Up and lets ride for these American Heroes!! America’s Greatest Generation defended our rights 70 years ago. Now it’s time that we defend THEIR rights and ensure they have access to THEIR Memorials. It’s time we show our government that we will no longer tolerate the political thugs that feel they can punish America into submission!! We are done with it!!

Let’s roll!!

Eric Zern is coordinating the event and he also coordinated the protest against the Muslim March on the 12th anniversary of 9/11 in D.C. The event brought an estimated 880,000 bikers, despite them being denied a permit to rally.

I m torn here in one way I sure do hope Obama’s goons tread carefully today because otherwise I think things will get very nasty very quickly, but in another way I think maybe it’s time for a showdown and we have two groups here that certainly could handle it and who’s cry would be as loud as a certain shot that was heard around the world.

Maybe we should use a trick of the left and occupy the Memorial it would be a hard thing to ignore.

Perhaps we need to learn this little ditty

(Always good to have a theme song)

Do you hear the people sing?
Singing a song of angry men?
It is the music of a people
Who will not be slaves again!
When the beating of your heart
Echoes the beating of the drums
There is a life about to start
When tomorrow comes!

Will you join in our crusade?
Who will be strong and stand with me?
Beyond the barricade
Is there a world you long to see?
Then join in the fight
That will give you the right to be free!

Do you hear the people sing?
Singing a song of angry men?
It is the music of a people
Who will not be slaves again!
When the beating of your heart
Echoes the beating of the drums
There is a life about to start
When tomorrow comes!

Listen HERE

And after singing that song, the soldiers fired into the crowd. I saw the movie.

The beginning of the end of the US people supporting the Vietnam War was the shooting of four Kent State students at campus riots, by US National Guard troops.

The NSA, DHS, Park Service, and Military Services are being deployed this week against the citizenry in a way never before seen in US History. One more incident similar to the government murder of the woman attempting to drive past a barricade in DC this week, and the FedGov legitimacy to govern will completely evaporate.

Already the forces of liberty are gathering across the country. One more week of abusive provocation by FedGov, then our Kenyan is likely to learn some new meaning of shutdown.

Don’t worry.

If Obama and his goons keep this up, there will be a steady streams of bikers (and non-bikers) protesting all day long. If not this weekend, there will be other time and place soon. Citizen Patriots won’t let up.

Obama&Co hope to have a tea party riot, they don’t know what they stir up.

Mack: Shame what this town's come to.
Charley Waite: You could do something about it.
Mack: What? We're freighters. Ralph here's a shopkeeper.
Charley Waite: You're men, ain't you?
Mack: I didn't raise my boys just to see 'em killed.
Charley Waite: Well you may not know this, but there's things that gnaw at a man worse than dying.

The difference between that country and this country is, our mili8tary would be on OUR side, and the crowd would be more heavily armed then the government troops.

I agree. Especially with the senior officers.

Yeah, but that was just one bunch of draft dodgers shooting at another bunch of draft dodgers...

If this keeps up, our Tea Party group will take a bus from Mansfield.

We can make a stop in Akron.

Let me know.

I absolutely would bet on it. There may be a few who would “just follow orders” but I would bet that the great majority of the military would be on our side.

The trucker rally is supposed to start on Friday.
We need to put some pressure on the tyrant.
