Peaceniks Subdued in NYC

Forgive me if someone else has posted this info. I've not yet seen another after-action report on this afternoon's FReep of 'peace' protestors in Union Square park.
We had a small but dedicated group of about 75 FReepers & walk-ups counter-protesting the "Give Peace A Chance" group occupying Union Square park.
I arrived about 2:00 PM and the reception we received from passersby was electric! Horns were honking and we were given the 'thumbs up' sign by 2/3 of those who drove by.
Many took photos and I would like to think that our demonstration was the reason that the peaceniks moved their 'festivities' down the street about 4 blocks.
We could barely hear their inane and monotonous droning as we drowned them out with chants of: "Hey Osama, it's time we bombed ya!" Little did we know at the time that bombs were indeed dropping in Afghanistan.
The indomitable RaceBannon closed the FReep with a hearty 'three cheers' for the NYPD, which was well received by all.
All in all a great day for America.

You shouldn't do dumb stuff like this. It makes the opposition redouble their efforts and embues them with a real motivation to go at it again. It also makes you look like you haven't a clue about the Constitution and the Bill of Rights.

"The WTC disaster is a monument to the amoral policies of Reagan, Bush and Clinton.." And with that, we know all we need to know about you.

C-Span had a feed from the CBC (Canadian Broadcasting Channel) on a couple of hours ago which did a story on this. The CBC said that there were more than expected numbers of "peace" protesters, but the CBC appeared to devote the meat of the story to the pro-American counterprotesters. I sure alot of FReepers wound up on Canadian news tonight! I wish I was there.

Don't waste your time, chief. LLAN is a troll of the first order.
Just remember that "there are none so blind as those who will not see," and you'll understand LLAN just fine ;)

You are ignorant and a disruptor. The whole reason you are saying this is because you want to create a false notion that there are alot of peace protesters out there, when in fact there are not.

"Know your opposition, and don't feed them. " So please take your own advice, and stop posting.

I think you're wrong. In Bush v. Gore, activist Bush supporters helped turn the tide by speaking out against the "secret" hand-counts being attempted in Dade Co. In fact, every time you return a leftist's fire with fire, they generally shrivel under the pressure.
The problem with Vietnam protests was that good people tolerated them for too long without speaking out until it got out of hand.
PS Are you French, by any chance?

Good job today, Lisa. (my daughter's name). Llan(sp?), just doesn't know what he is talking about, and has been on Free Republic just since July.
It is sad to see how many people take advantage of living in the U.S. by talking against the very things this country offers them.

AND I remember WW 2. Go away little one. After 9/11/01 I suggest that you mute your opinions. It may save you a bloody nose.

It's hard to believe that these peace-nik terrorist appeasers would have the nerve to show their faces in NYC...

"When they shot those college kids at Kent State, the whole country seemed to turn on a dime."Funny thing though - after they shot those bastards, there weren't anymore ROTC buildings getting burned!
