Bay Area Counter-Protest A Huge Success

Protest Warriors ^ | June 6, 2004 | Todd

[bgcountry187]

On saturday, June 5th, the liberal looney toons gathered to protest the war, President Bush, Israel, and a number of other things that had nothing to do with anything. The San Francisco Voice For Israel gathered in conjuction with the Protest Warriors and a few freepers. Here is my rundown on the days events. Please bear with me, I'm not much of a writer, but I'll do my best.

The San Francisco Voice For Israel met at 10:30 at Market and Powell in San Francisco. Around 11:30 they marched down the sidewalk (they didn't have a permit to march in the road) to Justin Herman Plaza. The plaza is directly adjacent to Embarcadero Plaza (the cancer's final meeting point) with only a walkway a little bigger than a crosswalk seperating the two. Their forces numbered around 150, maybe more.

Meanwhile, the Protest Warriors and a few Freepers met up at Embarcadero Bart at 11:30. We hung out until about 12:00 gathering in size to numbers we have never had. Excitement was in the air. We new we would make a bold statement today. We had all read an article on Indybay.org, an independant news source (the liberals source for their lies), that was all about the guys in white (that's us, we always try to where white shirts so we can see each other better amongst the rainbow of colors). It had warnings about us. This excited us. They were worried about 20 people (that's how many they said we had last time, even though we had nearly 40) amongst their thousands. It made us feel good that they new we would continue to have our voice heard. For it is the voice of the true majority. By the end of the day we number around 50, many more than we have ever had.

On with the day. Around 12:00 we started to head to Justin Herman Plaza. We weren't going to infiltrate the march this time, just meet them at the end. We arrived at the plaza to see hundreds of Pro-Israel supporters. It was a great site to see the flags and signs everywhere showing support for Israel. They very happy to see us. "Hello Protest Warriors!" they happily chanted. There was already a group of Palestinian supporters on the other side of the cross walk and we began chanting "Free Israel!" The police had already began to watch us to keep us seperated. After about a half our, maybe 45 minutes we were excited and decided we had to join in the march. The protest warriors and a few freepers gathered and walked about a half mile up the answers march route. This time they were ready for us. They made a wall in front of us as the march approached. This time the cancer supporters were much more confrontational. I guess the truth was getting to them. The police lined up in front of the cancers wall to protect us. We were getting into the march one way or another. This wall tactic would backfire on the answer. We moved another block up the march route and quikly joined in the march. The answer "Security" again blocked us with their wall and completely stopped in the middle of the road. Their were news cameras everywhere and this was turning out to be so much better for us. It was showing the hatred and hostility these "peace" protesters have. It looked like things were going to get out of hand and the police surrounded us for protection. The news caught all this on camera.

During all this I had a "veteran against the war" come up to me and tell me to look at their posterboard. It was pictures of all the dead soldeirs. He asked me what I thought of that. I told him those are America's true heros protecting our nation and freeing Iraqies form a murderous tyrant. I told him the world is a safer place with Saddam in custody. He started to give me a speach about him being a veteran. I had to interupt him, "How dare you use being a veteran in all this and how dare you use those soldiers, who probably all of whom, were proud to defend their country, and new they were fighting for a just cause. Oh and by the way my Dad is a veteran and supports the operations in Iraq, oh yah a$$hole, I AM a veteran!!" This really threw him off. I am a veteran of the Air Force. I only did my 4 year term, but I am still a veteran. I guess because I am young, 26, he thought their was no way I could be a veteran. His only response was why aren't you there. I told him because I didn't get called from inactive reserve or I would have been proud to defend my country, and oh yah, I'm going into the reserve. After that he was stumped and just walked off.

We all started to slide out the sides and around the cancer. The cops seemed to let us go. They followed along the sides. We marched to the plaza feeling the hatred all along the march. I lost my voice yelling "USA" or "Free Israel." We again met with the SF voice for Isreal. When we arrived the police had made a solid line with people and thier motorcycles to seperate us. I could feel the hatred from the other side. It still amazes me, even after having done this a few times, the hatred they have. I thought they were all about peace and love. I guess it's peace and love unless you differ in opinion. We carried on with our many chants for a few hours. The news cameras gave interviews to people from both sides. Channel 5 in the bay area interviewed me. I was decked out in red, white, and blue. I had a "one nation under GOD" hat on, and my "Americas Armed Forces, the True Freedom Fighters," which has a giant flag on it, and of course I had my American flag also. The lady asked me why I was there and I said "I'm here to show my support for Israel, President Bush, and our troops over seas!" She asked more questions but that was all that made the news. Channel 5 gave the best broadcast of the day. Other channels didn't even mention us, or they just did a little blurp, but channel 5 gave equal attention to both sides. I am writing a letter to thank them for giving us equal air time. Around 3:30 things started to wind down and we gathered one last time. We decide it was time to leave and we all walked to bart together, it's a safety thing!!

Overall, the day was a huge success. We are all happy with the days events. Everything went smoothly. We had many more people than we have ever had. I hope to see some of you in the future. Please come out, we can use all the support we can get. Unfortunately, I don't have any pics to post. Thank you to all who showed up and supported us. We may have had less people, but our message was much louder and clearer. Those who went please post comments if I missed anything. Here are links to the protest warriors and sf voice for israel:

if I lived in Cali, I'd be there with you (or, more likely, in jail for exercising my enumerated rights)

good stuff, people. my thanks and congratulations.

something's missing, though... Belly Girl.

You guys at PW are the best! Thanks.

[counterpunch]

haha, I love the links to the indymedia.org propaganda!
They've got pictures of kindly elderly men that they're calling "fascists"!!
HAHAHAHA!

check out

original political satire

[counterpunch]

Exactly! These idiots can't even see the hypocrisy in their own statements. If these people put as much energy in to fighting our real enemies as they do their own country, this war...as with many others, would've ended with far less misery.

No, I don't think you understand who these people are. These are not typical "liberals". These people are evil to their core. They are also insane. I mean, literally.

They are filled with nothing but utter hatred and their goal is to destroy society, just for the sake of destroying it. They are degenerate malcontents, every last one of them. They have no problem preaching violence because violence is what they feel inside. They're not about "peace", most of them don't even pretend that they are. They simply show up to any kind of protest or rally, but they are there for their own hate-filled anti-capitalist, anti-trade, anti-caucasian, anti-American, "anarchosyndicalist" ideology. I've come across many of these people. Even my liberal/Democrat friends all despise these people too.

It cannot be understated just how detached from reality these people are. They are extremely violent and destructive, but generally also cowardly. they're the kind of people who will run up from behind and throw a bottle at your head then run away. Direct contact with these people should be avoided as much as possible.

Great job Big Country! Voting with your feet, scares the opposition because they think everybody is going to lick their boots. One of the best questions to irritate them is to ask "How much are you getting paid to do this?" Sometimes they get $11.00 an hour for being there!

I wish I was closer to your region....it takes numbers to remain safe, as you have discovered, the wack's are strictly about power....peace and love have nothing to do with the issue from their side.

Please keep us updated on your future freeps in the danger zone.

Don't short change yourself as a writer. You did an excellent job. Sometimes it is hard to read long posts. I read every word of yours and enjoyed it.

Good going on being there and thanks for the report!

[Blowtorch]

After reading many posts on the indymedia site, I am amazed at how much hate the "peace activists" foster. These people hate their country, and seek the blood of heroes. Don't forget what they said about Pat Tillman.

Ya done good, you write fine and thank you!!!!! This country is in good hands with likes of young ones like you.

[Syncro]

Do you know who this MOT person is?

He posted this at the commie site:

"The participants of the International A.N.S.W.E.R. (Act Now to Start War and Encourage Racism) "Peace Rallies" are Opponents of those two things..Answer sponsored and supported a Palestine Solidarity Movement rally a few years back.

They outwardly call for the destruction of Israel..Why?
For the same reason 19 Arab men crashed 4 airlines on 9/11..They hate us because we are not like them..Jealousy is thrown in there as well....I saw a clip of the rally.....

These people support Hamas and Islamic Jihad..Is that peaceful? Why? just because the US supports Israel and the poor Palestinians are victims of their own as well as the corrupt regimes in the ME, you support cold blooded murderers?"

The rally he mentioned is Documented Here

We were outnumbered about 5000 to 10 or so and the SF Police, instead of protecting us and arresting the aggressors (that were rushing us with masks on) they put us in City Hall.

Well everyone but me, I slipped by them and stayed in the belly of the beast to take pictures of the Workers World Party's terrorist-supporting rally.

[AuntB]

"It cannot be understated just how detached from reality these people are"

I keep underestimating them. I just went through a battle royal with a very educated, wealthy cousin from Santa Barbara...I still cannot believe the lies this guy and his friends (mostly in England) are capable of. The emails he sent still leave a stench on my computer!

[JulieRNR21]

Thanks for standing up to these hate filled peace-nazis!

God Bless all the Protest Warriors & Freepers to went into the belly of the beast.

BRAVO.....BUMP!

[Doctor Raoul]

Those INDYMEDIA posts are a laugh riot. Guess they missed the ANSWER folks that called for "Death to the Jews".

A little paranoid projection in their comments about others.

[Doctor Raoul]

I believe this is mostly talk.

I believe it's a crime.

Call the police and say you'll be planting a bomb, you'll get arrested.

Funny how it's always the "peace and love" folks that threaten violence or act out in violence.

You don't see FReepers getting arrested because we don't do that.

[Doctor Raoul]

Great job folks.

[at bay]

Yes, they done good, in the face of ignorance and evil.

[Joe Brower]

You are correct as always, good Doctor.

Yes, the radical left hides it's Marxist bloodthirst behind the false facade of "marching for peace". Then, when opposed, they instantly want to see you dead.

And yes, if us "right wing extremists" ever proposed such things as the left does, we'd be called to task instantly. The blatant and undeniable double-standards that grow with every passing year only make more plain the political division in modern America, and only widen the chasm more and more.

If the Marxists continue to push the envelope, eventually they are going to fall in.

Stay safe,

[Doctor Raoul]

Hello good looking...

Outraged, have you heard about the HIV infected needles threat at reply #5? Something to ponder.

One step closer to The Day, for sure.

We don't need vangardist to tell us these scum need their butts kicked.

It is obvious to anyone who has made even a cursory study of history that these people respond to one thing and one thing only, force. But don't do it at the demo, in front of the cops.

We aren't planning on punching you.
We're planning to stick you with HIV infected needles.
It only takes one.

Photograph them. That is, get good mug shots of them and post them on a separate thread so they can be identified. Interesting information may come of that; who knows, one of them might be the guy who assaulted the North Beach art gallery owner. While taking their photos, have someone videotape it in case any of them get violent. Some may be police officers and probably don't want their photos taken.

Not everybody, just me. I'll be dressed like a Protest Warrior and carrying a Protest Warrior type sign. I'm going to mingle in among you. You'll never spot me. You may feel a tiny prick. Maybe you'll think you've been bitten by a mosquito. It'll take you a long time to die. But you'll die. And you'll never harrass us again.

There is absolutely no truth to the rumor that
radical Queers intend to attack the freepers with bar darts dipped in HIV blood.
Don't believe it. Come on down. You'll be safe as milk.

One step closer to The Day, for sure.

Which Day is that? The Day when this 'awkward time' of itchy fingers attached to atrophied hearts ends?
