How big are these "anti-war" protests anyway?

Anti-war protesters lie down in the intersection of H and 16th Streets, northwest, and block traffic before being arrested by police during a demonstration near the White House in Washington, March 21, 2003. Police made several dozen arrests as protesters disrupted traffic in Washington while major U.S. led airstrikes hit downtown Baghdad in Iraq (news - web sites). REUTERS/Jim Bourg

If you look in the background of this picture. It shows more press covering the 'protest' than there are protesters laying in the street. -- makes you go hmmmmmm....

Pro Bush, Pro Troops Ralliers got both good and quality coverage by the local media in Portland, OR.

About 100 to 150 stood face to face with the anti's until the Cops came between them. The media allowed audio that proved the point of the Pro's and showed the ignorance of the issues of the anti's.

One Pro got beat down when hew tried to save a US Flag from being draged and stomped on the ground. AND the media SHOWED it!

Get this face time off the TV, the Radio, and the web. If you stop talking about these unfaithful they will go away.


This woman is praying for Mr Bush.

I think her prayers have been answered.

The one here in Westeood/Brentwood on Thursday was small ... about 200 people, if that. I understand that last night was a bigger crowd.

Help somebody. I am trying to look up posts or threads on ANSWER because I am trying to tell a friend who they really are, and I type in a.n.s.w.e.r. in the 'search' space, and then click on 'search' and it just sits there. I don't get no list. What am I doing wrong?

Take whatever number the protest organizers claim, then divide by at least three.

You can find everything you want by typing in A.N.S.W.E.R. They are funded primarily by The Workers World of America (Communist Party), North Korea, Iraq, and various front groups (including Palestinian Terrorist groups)--Double click on the link that I have provided and note the organizations that support, and if you really want to research, do a Yahoo or Google on each of them--you will see a common thread--these protests are being funded by our enemies. Link http://www.internationalanswer.org/campaigns/j18/endorsers.html If it doesn't take you there, just hold your left button on your mouse down from the http all the way to the .html. Then paste into your address line--should work.

I absolutely floors me to watch these 'peace' protesters run wild through the streets vandalising everything in their paths...What a bunch of idiots!!

It's funny to see the caption 'peace activist' over images of them being led away in handcuffs.

They are not 'peace activist' they are anarchist.

Protestors have NO RIGHT TO BE HEARD, only a freedom to speak. There is a difference.

It is WRONG to say that they have a right to do what they are doing. It is illegal to FORCE yourself upon others.

They can speak, not force us to listen, not commit violence, not block streets, not commit vandalism.

These protesters have no respect for others which leads me to believe that the majority are really only anarchist.

Anyone involved in these marches on any PUBLIC streets without permits proved their total disregard for others rights.

That shows that anti establishment is the real agenda, not anti-war.

Funny that we never saw these folks during Kosovo (no UN support) or Bosnia.

There is an agenda at work here and we all can see now that it is not about the war.

Write letters to the editor and pass this footage around!

Your link shows the addresses of this anti-war web site. Maybe they should get a taste of their own medicine and pro-US protesters go sit outside their offices!!

Dang.

Last night some idiot tried burning a piece of a flag, and the cops made him put it out. The he just lit a candle wrapped in the same piece of flag, and freeper cateizgr8 kept blowing it out every time he lit it until he finally went away. He's lucky she didn't beat his ass.
