FREEP: Should We Pass Out Hygiene Products to the Smelly Anti-War Demonstrators?

Maybe we need to have a sign, at all future freeps, that says, "We bathe regularly", so that any freepers showing up late will know where they should be... ;0)

Another great idea to throw into the "goodie bag" - a box of candy cigarettes!

Yes, fresh minty flavored ones for their nasty, unwashed mouths.

How about getting passers-by involvment with a sign?

"Help purchase SOAP & DEODERANT for the smelly anti-war protesters"

Then have a donation pail available.

I have seen wire baskets of 'samples' at places like CVS or Walgreens, but I would suspect you can find them even cheaper than that. My wife suggested that we find out who supplies hotels with the samples that they use. The samples in the 'tear-open' foil packs would probably be considerably cheaper than the little plastic bottles. (Especially when you consider that most samples will be thrown away by offended anarchists. Then again; since they are free, they might keep them.) Would manufacturers supply samples; given the cause? That would depend on whether their sense of humor is stronger than their dedication to PC principles. (Can we get our hands on samples without their knowing what they are going to be used for? Hmmm.) In any event; I think this could be LOTS of fun. After all, we are supposed to be 'compassionate conservatives'. What a wonderful act of kindness to let someone know, even those on the opposite end of the political spectrum, that they 'smell'. If this is played right, I'd be willing to bet that even the liberal media would run with this. (Can you just imagine the reaction of FOX News or Rush if they got wind of this?) There have been some GREAT ideas presented on this thread so far...keep 'em coming!

perhaps the men can be in ties

When transiting the Port Authority bus terminal in uniform, I always made a point to wear a clip-on. Remember Philadelphia? You might want to do likewise, in case things get ugly.

Those little nose/mouth coverings that painters use are very cheap...I should know next month I am going to be a fomer painter. Sorry if I had a supply of them I would send them to you, but I only have a couple...I don't use them to paint I like the fumes...LOL

Maybe we could have a "Million Soap March", where we all gather in Washington D.C., and speak out about the basic human right to hygeine products - at taxpayer's expense ;0)

This Freeper plans to be attending the DC Bike Fest on 9/14. Who knows, maybe we'll ride by the Fed. Building, and one of the creeps will accidentally step in front of our swarm of Huffies.

Laura Ingraham must be reading FR. She is talking about the protestors looking like they need a bath or shower. "They haven't bathed since the Carter administration."
