Some of the DC Chapter have been physically threatened at the counter-rallies. This has been documented online and should be provided (chapter independent of the forum, just as you say) of the typical assault the Left does against FR.

This is not a one-time deal. Stuff should be in the archives.

I also seem to recall other chapters that have experienced similar actions from the Left.

[sauropod]

Thanks for posting that. I am also mindful of the times tgsltakoma was threatened specifically in DC by a Leftist wearing a Palestinian headress.

[hellinahandcart]

I just knew you'd be all over this thread. ;D

[sauropod]

Provide the reporter that did the story this information that weegee found out.

It would blow the other side's argument right out of the water

[sauropod]

So we are not supposed to speak ill of Islam when their mullas are chanting "Death to Americans!" from their mosques?

[MissAmericanPie]

I can just hear news viewers talking about FR, "Those folks looked and sounded awfully sweet to be a hate group. If they ever hope to live up to the title they are going to have to wear camo, stop their eyes from sparkling with good humor and work on their war faces".

[MissAmericanPie]

So I'm thinking, we need to be out rallying and being attacked more often. It really puts the bad guys in the proper light.

[sauropod]

Agree with you. But it takes fortitude to do that kind of thing. There are some fellow FReepers that have that fortitude in abundance!

[A Broken Glass Republican]

Unless you're stupid, you know as well as I do that it's not Islam that is the problem, but militant Islam.

That being the case, Islam is still refered to as a "Death Cult", "Gutter Religion", and other such niceties...Not to mention refering to all Middle Easterners as "Rag Heads" and what not.

Of course any fool knows that if the enemy truly was the whole of Islam, their 1 to 1.6 BILLION worshipers are the most undermotivated blood thirsty maniacs ever.

I don't have a big problem with this kind of language because I think open debate is a good thing, but let's not kid ourselves...Much of it could be classified as "Hate Speech" very easily.

And then of course are the Homosexual threads...

[sauropod]

Islam is a cult, at least according to my faith. They deny the divinity of Jesus Christ.

So, on 9/11 with all the Palis dancing in the streets as the towers fell (so much so that Yessir I'mARat had to stop the media coverage of this) they were all "militant Islam"?

You delude yourself. Take a trip to Pakistan or Afghanistan, or Albania for that matter and take a good hard look at "Islam."

[A Broken Glass Republican]

Islam is a cult, at least according to my faith. They deny the divinity of Jesus Christ.

This is the basic problem right here.

I guess the proper response to these kind of comments is to call Christianity a "Cult"???

Personally, I think you've all been brainwashed because none of you know what the "One true faith" is, for SURE...That's why they cal it "Faith".

But I don't go around bashing any of you...Even though many of you bash one-another...I think all religion is good for society. At least when it's not practiced by fanatics (Suicide bombers and murderers of doctors who perform abortions).

[sauropod]

Its not a problem for me. I know what the truth is!

"Brainwashed" yeah right!

[A Broken Glass Republican]

And those who you bash "Know the truth" too. Just ask them.

[unsycophant]

Did the police show up at the barbecue, or at the rally? How seriously did they take this "press release"?

I liked how the mayor called HRC 'politically intoxicated'. Obviously this isn't the first problem the mayor has had with this group.

Maybe Rush will say something about this on his show.

[sauropod]

Oh goody. Another person that tells me I have to be "tolerant" of others while they piss on my faith and threaten to kill me.

Not bloody likely.

I've check out that left wing site. They hate everything moral or patriotic.

No, they just hate everything.

[A Broken Glass Republican]

I'm not telling you anything.

[RangerHobbit]

You might be interested in knowing that the World Health Organization announced not long ago that female genital mutilation is still practiced in EVERY Muslim country, and that such barbaric practices affect 90% or more of women in many of those countries, especially in Africa.

In most of the North African Muslim countries where my family spent time (my father was an oil company executive who spoke fluent Arabic), an actual "wake" of sorts always accompanies the birth of a daughter, so despised are women as a central tenet of the religion you defend here.

I've experienced Islam up close and personal by living in its midst, and I have to conclude that anyone who would defend such an arcane, anachronistic, despotic, and wholly sexist dogma whose modern locus is based largely on hatred for Jews and other non-Muslims, is an imbecile.

[RangerHobbit]

That graphic is priceless weegee! ;-)

I'm going to rip it off and send it to some of our boys in Iraq.

[sauropod]

Sure you are. You are saying I am "brainwashed," that if I don't accept and approve of Islam that I am wrong...

Shall I go on?
