My arms are so sore from holding up my sign I can barely type this, but here it goes.
We got there about 11:30 and scouted out the place where we thought would be the best corner. There was one peacenik (whoops, sorry, I will refer to them as traitors from this point forward) with her sign folded in half, like she was ashamed of what was on it! After our freep, I am certain she was sorry she came!
Left_Coast_Conservative and I found our corner and started freeping. Left Coast’s sign said GOD BLESS AMERICA and mine said HONK FOR OUR SOLDIERS. Soon after, Tax and Luvya Dubya2000 arrived with a big bunch of trailing balloons with God Bless America printed on them. It was very effective. They were flying across the street so it brought attention to our group! They also brought a CD player with Lee Greenwood’s patriotic music and we sang and freeped. It was so wonderful it almost brought tears to my eyes
Please note: never mess with Luvya. She can out holler any freeper around. We were a small group but we were loud and of course the cacophony of car horns drove the traitors crazy. So much that they came over to our side of the street with there signs. Our Honk for our Soldiers sign created so much attention that they redid one of their signs and it said “Honk for Peace”. People in cars were giving them the “you know what” and of course they deserved it! They tried to ruin our freep by invading our corner but we were loud, patriotic, and we stood our ground. One guy with a UN flag in his hat came over and he stayed for about two minutes. These Sacramento women freepers scared the hell out of him. We whipped out our can of Whoop-Ass on him!!! He was one sorry ass peacenik!!! These traitors are so pathetic!
EricT. brought his three beautiful daughters and they were singing the patriotic songs and waving flags. Nothing better than to have children at a freep. It is a little hard on them though! Budweisest was there freeping and taking pictures, at bay brought a very creative sign especially for the “traitors”. I will let him describe it…he had way too much fun. Comwatch came with his group of patriots.
All the police cars that drove by honked their horn along with firefighters who were going to an emergency. EMTs gave a long beep. I would say 85 percent of the people that drove by honked their horn or gave us the thumbs up!! It was wonderful.
I cannot believe the support we got from the public! It was overwhelming! Other freepers, who are more eloquent than I please share your thoughts with Freepers about our Support America rally. It was beautiful man!!!!!!
Tax will be posting pictures and please, Sacramento freepers, add comments this post. I did not do justice to our freep. Please excuse any typos, bad grammar, or anything else that doesn’t sound coherent. I am tired!
Nope, we don't even want to hear it. All that it does is give support to the terrorist that are right here on American soil. It encourages them to fight on and kill more innocent Americans. If you can't support us then keep you mouth shut so that real men can protect YOU from the next terrorist attack right here on American soil.
You must give them the respect they are entitled to under the constitution that this country stands for. Intelligently disagreeing with someones point of view is one thing, dehumanizing the person is quite another.
Where does the constitution say I have to respect anyone who would support the very people who attacked and killed 5,000 Americans, Geesh some of you just don't understand that war was declared on 'US" How many more will die before these idiot peace-nics wake up and smell reality?
Good, loud, vocal cords are a fantastic addition to any FReep--large or small!!!!
Oh my God! Can you imagine what that would do to our ears!!! LOL

This struggle may be a physical one; or it may be both moral and physical; but it must be a struggle.
Power concedes nothing without a demand. It never did, and it never will.
Find out just what people will submit to, and you have found out the exact amount of injustice and wrong which will be imposed upon them; and these will continue until they are resisted with either words or blows, or with both.
The limits of tyrants are prescribed by the endurance of those whom they oppress."
-Frederick Douglass, August 4, 1857
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.
By adhering to these priciples upon which we as a nation were founded, you are showing respect which is simply regarding another as your equal. This is a minimum of due respect for all men. Their opinions are just as important as yours regardless of perceived correctness. Treason is another matter, but you wouldn't know it from the way it has been thrown around here.
The definition of respect is simply to regard. You seem to define it "to esteem". Regardless, your statement about the "real world" is the shocker for me. I hope that somehow you don't reflect a very popular attitude but I think you do. Your shrugging off of our own Declaration of Independence is what I fear is most prevalent behind all those new flags I have seen of late.
Likewise friend. Now let's both go get a life!
Amazing, an old Nixon mask from the early 1970's. Libs never forget their petty triumphs. Nixon never did anything like Clinton. And this isn't about oil, it's about the WTC, the Pentagon, and anthrax deaths. The US has supported Israel but still has protected Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, etc. against Iraq. It ain't the US's fault, folks, it's the crazy Muslims.
