Reminds me of Norman Lear, who boohooed the fact that people had the freedom of speech to disagree with him.
These unfortunate misguided and misinformed who would suggest temerity in response to terrorism have a right to their opinion, thank God, here in the USA, yet so also we. For my part, I respect those who do not necessarily subscribe to hyper-patriotism, but the voices of those who would seek to undermine the efforts of our leadership must be answered.
My best wishes for all success in a peaceful countering of this unfortunate outbreak.
Yours for final victory, M.I.U.
That is the _key phrase_ that should be the underlying premise for all FReeper counter rallies against the leftist "peaceniks".
Here are some other ideas for signs:
"STOP THE CYCLE OF EMASCULATION in America".
(This counters their "Stop the Cycle of Violence" mantra).
Another: "SHAME on those who EMASCULATE AMERICA and make her WEAK".
Another: "THE COST of FREEDOM is a STRONG AMERICA".
Another: "America's EMASCULATORS ENDANGER our SAFETY".
Another: "PEACE is the PRESENCE of FREEDOM and the ABSENCE of a THREAT to it."
Another: "America's LEFT-WING EMASCULATORS ENDANGER FREEDOM in the world and are a THREAT to PEACE."
Another: "The REAL PEACEMAKERS are those who seek to make the world SAFE for FREEDOM LOVERS".
Another: "JANE FONDA, TOKYO ROSE, and MATA HARI would be PROUD of these PACIFISTS who seek to EMASCULATE and WEAKEN AMERICA."
Another: "SHAME on the feminized males who support "THE CYCLE OF EMASCULATION" that WEAKENS AMERICA, and INVITES ATTACK."
Another: "SOCIALISTS EMASCULATE AMERICA and make her WEAK and VULNERABLE to ATTACK."
Another: "SOCIALISM IS UNAMERICAN".
Another: "LEFT-WING SOCIALIST POLICIES WEAKEN AMERICA".
Another: "THESE ARE THE LEFTIST-TYPES WHO TRIED TO PREVENT THE MILITARY VOTE FROM BEING COUNTED IN FLORIDA."
Another: "LEFTISTS EMASCULATE & WEAKEN America. THEY TRIED TO STOP the MILITARY VOTE from being counted in Florida."
Another: "Should America pay attention to FEMINIZED MALES and AIR-HEAD FEMALES in matters of DEFENSE??"
Another: "America's Left-Wing/Socialist EMASCULATORS are UNFIT TO LEAD *or* FOLLOW. We must just ask them to "GET OUT OF THE WAY"." BTTT
"People like us" advocate the personal ownership and use of firearms. Please square that with our ostensible desire of a "police state" - that is, if it doesn't make your head explode in the process.
Bottom line: Free speech works both ways. Protestors can be counter-protested. Harsh language may be used. And while I might not agree they're "traitors" in the strictest sense of the term, they are clearly ignorant, dangerous, and a danger to the longevity of our Republic. Anyone who believes otherwise is a fool beyond measure.
