Oh my. Checked google for "grande launcher" and found this:



Weapons cache discovered at childcare center in Nalchik (Russia)

NALCHIK. March 28 (Interfax) - A grenade launcher and other weapons, allegedly belonging to militants, were discovered in the premises of a childcare center in Nalchik on Tuesday.

The cache contained a grenade launcher, a Kenwood portable radio set and a Makarov pistol, Marina Kyasova, spokesperson for Kabardino- Balkaria's Interior Ministry, told Interfax.

The pistol was on a list of weapons stolen in a militants attack on the Drug Control Department headquarters in Nalchik in December 2004.

The owner of the cache is being sought. Police said militants could have been plotting to seize the childcare center.

JP, as I posted on that thread, our "leaders" in DC are already not upholding the Constitution which they were sworn to defend. That goes all the way to the top.

It's mentioned twice that I know of in the Constitution that the states are to be protected from invasion.

I don't know what good it will do to call for a new amendment, if they won't even now defend what they are already sworn to defend.

Of course, this would shine a new light on their negligence (dare I say treason?), so that is definitely a good thing.

These are the 2 instances re: invasion that I'm sure are stated in the Constitution -- we are being invaded, and only a handful of people are trying to put a stop to it:

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Article 1. Section 8. Clause 15.

[The Congress shall have Power]
To provide for calling forth the Militia to execute the Laws of the Union,
suppress Insurrections and repel Invasions;

and

Article 4. Section 4.

The United States shall guarantee to every State in this Union a Republican
Form of Government, and shall protect each of them against Invasion;

None of them are following their Oath of Office to protect America from all enemies, foreign and domestic.

Yep, so much for OF THE PEOPLE, BY THE PEOPLE AND FOR THE PEOPLE. The good part is that 75% of Americans are sick and tired of being disregarded and disrespected. We've only just begun to revolt against their inaction on this issue.

The other 25% represent the illegals (criminals by virtue of our written laws), whose opinions should take on no relevance whatsoever, but instead take on more importance by our politicians than the rights and opinions of the majority who are taxppaying, law-abiding hard working, voting citizens.

If the pro-illegal groups are so determined to colonize America, they need to begin the legal process of annexing our border states to Mexico, thereby achieving their goal.

Unmanned Predator Kills Three Terrorists; Relative Turns in Suspect

American Forces Press Service

WASHINGTON, March 29, 2006 – An MQ-1B Predator unmanned aerial vehicle engaged three insurgents in the process of planting a homemade bomb along a road near Balad Air Base, Iraq, yesterday evening and launched an AGM-114 Hellfire missile against the group.
The Predator monitored the three terrorists for about a half hour while they used a pick ax to dig a hole in the road, placed an explosive round in the hole, and strung wires from the hole to a ditch on the side of the road. When it was clear the individuals were placing a bomb, the Predator launched the 100-pound Hellfire missile, killing all three insurgents.

"This is a prime example of how airpower is supporting the fight on the ground," Air Force Brig. Gen. Frank Gorenc, commander of the 332nd Air Expeditionary Wing at Balad, said. "We're able to provide a persistent view of the battlefield to commanders on the ground and, if called upon, put a weapon on a target within minutes."

Using joint Army and Air Force trend analysis and past incident reporting from the area, the Predator was assigned to monitor the general location where the insurgents were ultimately found. "Based on the information we had available, we had a pretty good idea there might be some activity in the area, and we were right," Gorenc said. "This strike should send a message to our enemies that we're watching you, and we will take action against you any time, day or night, if you continue to stand in the way of progress in Iraq."

In other news from Iraq, a relative of a suspected terrorist turned him over to Multinational Division Baghdad soldiers March 27, accusing him of conducting drive-by attacks against Iraqi army troops, officials reported today.

When soldiers from the 1st Battalion, 87th Infantry Regiment, responded to the relative's tip and went to the suspect's house, they found two AK-47 assault rifles, a 9 mm pistol, and body armor. The suspect was taken into custody for questioning.

Elsewhere, other tipsters told coalition forces and Iraqi army soldiers about two weapons caches on March 25. One cache contained 22 grenades, six grenade fuses and five blasting caps in southern Baghdad. U.S. soldiers from 1st Squadron, 10th Cavalry Regiment, 2nd Brigade Combat Team, 4th Infantry Division, and counterparts from the 2nd Battalion, 2nd Brigade, 8th Iraqi Army Division, found the cache.

A few hours later, another tip led the same soldiers to a large weapons cache containing 292 grenades, 350 machine gun rounds, 100 hand grenade fuses, two 120 mm artillery rounds, two 25-pound bags of artillery propellant, and repellant charges.

32 Taliban Killed; Afghan Movement Agency Makes First Delivery

American Forces Press Service

WASHINGTON, March 29, 2006 – Coalition forces killed 32 insurgents and destroyed two Taliban headquarters buildings in Afghanistan's Helmand province today, officials at Bagram Air Base said.
The early-morning engagement continued into daylight hours as coalition forces defeated a large enemy element that was attempting to retreat into sanctuaries.

Coalition forces also discovered large caches of munitions as they overran the Taliban compound and the enemy fled. Coalition forces destroyed the munitions, which included weapons and bomb-making materials, causing multiple secondary explosions and destroying the compound and all enemy military equipment inside.

"The capturing of these two compounds with boots on the ground produced significant intelligence and allows us to continue to put pressure on the enemy," Army Brig. Gen. Anthony J. Tata, deputy commander of Combined Joint Task Force 76, said. "With our coalition partners and the government of Afghanistan, we are committed to continuing offensive operations against the Taliban and other terrorists that are attempting to disrupt the considerable progress of reconstruction and governance in Afghanistan."

In other news from Afghanistan, after several training deliveries, the Afghan National Army's Central Movement Agency conducted its inaugural movement operations recently, delivering military rations to forward operating units in the Kabul area, officials said today.

This event, officials said, highlights the progress the agency has made toward total self-sufficient capability. The agency consists of 90 Afghan army troops and 33 new vehicles, and will mature to 890 people and 627 vehicles organized into four transportation companies. It will serve as the Afghan army's national transportation system and stand ready to provide vital military transportation services for the army across Afghanistan, U.S. officials said.

Training sessions attended by all of the unit's vehicle operators covered basic preventive maintenance checks and services, driver responsibilities, vehicle-specific operation, and safety. The training also included professional military topics, such as mentoring junior officers, command-level decision-making, and noncommissioned officers' roles and responsibilities.

"The CMA needs to continue training and make sure we put the correct personnel into the correct sections. Also, we need more people and equipment to make sure we're ready for future missions," Afghan army Sgt. 1st Class Muhammad Ali said.

CMA operators rotated through the intensive, formal and hands-on courses and used Kabul area cargo-movement missions as training events. They put skills learned in the classroom to use behind the wheel. Drivers are now driving newly acquired 7-ton medium tactical vehicles.

"We must keep our professional attitudes and military discipline to accomplish each future mission safely," Afghan army Maj. Muhammad Esrar said.

The agency's commander, Col. Ghulan Rasoul, and his team of officers, noncommissioned officers and soldiers said they are eager to begin independent operations and are enthusiastic about the future. "The Afghan people are ready to see their army providing supplies to all army units," Rasoul said. "I feel comfortable with our current soldiers' capabilities and am excited to continue the training for the missions to come. Soon we will provide the nationwide services currently provided by commercial contractors."

Cindy, I am thinking that it wasn't at the LA protests, but at one of the Michigan protests, since ACCESS seems to be based in Detroit.

There were 2 rallies in Michigan that I've read about, in Detroit and in Grand Rapids.

That photo of the men carrying the banner was most likely at one of those 2 places, at least that's my best guess at this point.

I still can't find the original photo that showed that banner. Just not sure where it was taken.

Well thank you texasbluebell.
I appreciate the update.

OPINION...

Generally speaking...

I've viewed over a hundered or more photos in the last
2 days.

The posters (ie posters people hold in demonstrations),
tell a lot about a person/groups and what is important
to them. Same goes for the flag/flags they wave.
