D.C. Chapter FYI ping.

Any pictures of the "green hat" in question?

[Mr. Mojo]

“to protest (the) Bush attack on Muslims"

What attack? Are these people completely insane? Bush must've (publicly) called Islam "a religion of peace" about 50 times since 9/11.

I was on the thread when you were getting the police.Glad you got out of the "peace" rally all in one piece.We would love to see photos if possible.

[jagrmeister]

Interesting report. I wonder if it would be useful to coordinate efforts to prevent the green-hats from sabotaging the picture-taking, such as having enough Freepers to keep them at a distance. A video camera might also be nice to spotlight how ridiculous the behvaior is of some of these "peace-loving" "civil liberties respecting" types are.

[Mr. Mojo]

speaker after speaker denounce President Bush, Attorney General John Ashcroft, America and Israel.

The commies/Muslims axis of evil .....although I'm surprised they left out Rummy.

Sounds like a war zone. How many FBI were in attendance? Taking names and photos I hope.

[Mr. Mojo]

The ‘green hat’ who was waving “her” hands in front of tgslTakoma took up a post at the edge of the plaza near where we sat down after things were sorted out. “She” shadowed us for the rest of the rally.

"She" must've been a real beauty.

The event, called Muslim Solidarity Day

That's really not very catchy. How about...oh...Dhimmis for Dummies?

[Mr. Mojo]

One of them, accompanied by a few others, threatened tgslTakoma with grave bodily harm

I hope you folks are packing heat.

Visibly perturbed she then enlisted an olive-skinned male to take over, and he was a little too eager. He shoved me as I had taken camera aim at the stage. The NLG bike gal told him, "Don't touch her. You can't touch her."

Did she make this comment to Becker after he made his threatening comments towards tgslTakoma ??

And who are these so-called lawyers that were violating your 1st Amendment rights

And And ... this is a public park .. did these losers really think no one would see them and take pictures of them ???

And and and ... they are a bunch of dangerous friggin nuts cases

[Wondervixen]

He wants to get into name calling? Call him a communist pissant and move on.

[WaterDragon]

Oh, my. Basically you were dealing with thugs. Thugs with mush for brains, but Hitler didn't seek out the smartest bulbs, either, did he?

A 'Brave Freeper bump' to you. . .Thanks for hanging in there and putting some faces to this as well.

Would love to see the list of the donors who support this treasonous crap. . .

[Budge]

Is this what the left, the HATE AMERICA, demobrats call "free speech?"

I know, I know. You don't have to answer a rhetorical question.

[American in Israel]

Next time have a tape recorder running in a shirt pocket, and bring lots of mace. When a guy shoves you mace the snot out of him. A woman attacked by a man who is even lightly attached to the rally, after being egged on in front of the crowd? Man, that is stupid.

If you so much as get a broken window in the next month, you should sue the organizers for publicly calling for your destruction with the cockroach speech. If I am correct, this rally sponsor is legally toast at this point, a good lawyer, or an ambulance chaser for that matter, could really turn the heat up on them.

Perhaps some Freepers should not wear jackets and carry video cameras to film the harassment.

You all got guts, and are on the front line in the battle for America's freedom. Hats off to you!

This is exactly the way Hitler began his rise to terrorize the world in the 1930's....Its just that Now we have the "Green hats" instead of the "brown shirts".

[bluesagewoman]

Ping, princess, you're going to love it in D.C. This is the group you'll get to meet up with! Oh, you are so lucky! Have fun, be careful!

Great job you all! Thanks for the report and photos.

[FreedomPoster]

You two are incredible. These scum that were in your face and pushing should have been arrested at minimum.
