My e-mail box is over-flowing with alarming news from Pa. where the Gathering of Eagles witnessed a 14-year old boy attacked by Peace Thugs.
This news is so disturbing and so typical, that a website has now been established to document this intensifying level of violence against patriotic Americans. Peace Thugs Exposed!
Dan Maloney, my friend and GOE NY Coordinator writes about this outrage.

Iraq War Veteran and Family Assaulted!
April 22, 2008
Peace Fascists, College Professors and Hillary Supporters assault Iraqi War Veteran and Family while citizens do nothing to intervene.
Edinboro, PA, Apr. 22
For the second time in as many weeks, an Iraq War Veteran and his family held a Support the Troops rally across the street from the weekly “peace” protest in this college town. This week the true nature of the ‘peace’ activists was revealed for all to see. When the veteran’s 14 year old son crossed the street to videotape the protesters and their signs, the protesters became agitated and began harassing the boy. The right to record video in any public venue is long established in law and any attempt to interfere with that right is a violation of civil rights.
Seeing the escalating tension across the street, the veteran and his wife crossed over, leaving their three youngest children on the other side for safety while they went to retrieve their eldest son. Two of the female ‘peace’ protesters then attacked the veteran’s wife. When the veteran pulled one of those attackers off his wife he was jumped by four or five of the ‘peace’ people and knocked to the ground where they held him while beating him and smashing his eyeglasses.
The son pulled the remaining attacker off his mother, but the attacker managed to get in one last kick to his mother’s head with her boot. She then punched the son in his face while his mother called the police.
This all took place at a busy intersection, the mother had been knocked into the street in bumper to bumper traffic. People were visible in the windows of shops and a bar nearby. One might think someone would intervene to put a stop to the assault. One would be wrong. In a scene eerily reminiscent of the Kitty Genovese tragedy in New York, the bystanders and passers-by refused to stand up to the ‘peace’ thugs. Displaying a craven cowardice one would not have expected in middle America they would rather go on their way thankful that it was not them being assaulted. It was NOT them, today, but what about tomorrow?
When the police arrived they reviewed the video of the incident and then, astonishingly, refused to make any arrests, even when one of the ‘peace’ thugs spit in the face of the 14 year old boy right in front of the police and they did nothing! Officers, that is an assault! I don’t know where or how they train police in Edinboro but they obviously need some refresher courses!
One of the police was very aggressive toward the veteran and his family as if they were the attackers!
I think it is long past time for the people in this country to wake up to the violence of the ‘peace’ movement. I think it is long past time for them to realize that not standing up to the excesses of violence will only beget more violence.
Last Fourth of July, in New Jersey, one of these ‘peace’ people walked up to a young veteran of the War in Iraq and Afghanistan and shot him in the heart just because he was in the military. Last month another person or persons unknown detonated an improvised explosive device at the Armed Forces Recruiting Station in Times Square. Today a veteran and his family were assaulted in plain daylight on a public street in view of dozens of people and not one lifted a hand to help. This is not the America I grew up in. This is the Amerika the ‘peace’ crowd is bringing to your town and neighborhood.

It is past time for the American people to wake up to what is going on in this country and actively defend our Troops and country!

Exactly. When you go to a protest, take along a 300-lb., well-tattooed, hairy-backed biker beast. Strong silent type. Steel-tipped boots. Goes by the name "Silver Nose" or "Hammer." Scars.
People are still apes at confrontation and they will not readily spit on black leather, or interfere with him as he videotapes. The type is a bulldozer in the eye of a peacenik. /serious
If someone attacks me they are going to end up with some lumps. I may end up with more but they will definitely end up with some that show.
I would have someone with a video camera in a remote location and have them tape the entire episode so that if the police arrested me, I would have the tape to take to court.
Thanks for the ping, jaz. “Peace” activists run amok! It will be interesting to see what the police do with the video.
Sounds just like "getting someone's attention" in the livelier neighborhoods.
How sad pro America demonstrators actually have to bring protection or count on some kind of “bodyguards.” I thought that’s what police were for. Too often it seems the police are on the side of the bad guys, which makes no sense.
That this incident went on and no one intervened, and it is not a major news story, shows just how far we have fallen. No wonder an extremist like Obama is on the verge of being elected president. Too many average Americans believe the brainwashing that we are the force of evil in the world, that we were stupid and backwards to have reelected Bush, that we are somehow a warmongering people. The future looks bleak, though I hope perhaps at some point people will get smart and things will change. But it’s going to take a while.
Gonna need more than just you when your facing a mob.
What needs to happen is a BUNCH of our guys need to show up and be ready to put out some pain. Find the people who did this and hurt them. Badly.
Wont happen though. Our side talks tough but doesn’t back it up.

I’ll have a video of it later today or tomorrow. The video is out there, but it is going to be used by Fox News today to bring more attention. It was pulled from YouTube until that happens. I’ll have it on my blog as soon as it’s cleared.
The police have returned the video. Interestingly, though, is that the hippies filmed the whole thing too, but the police didn’t take their camera!!
I'm sure it'll change. For the worse. Cops only function to keep the sheeple in good formation. There's very little morality involved anymore. For example, the one with the gun is the problem, regardless. In a domestic dispute, the one with the Y chromosome is the problem, regardless. Right and wrong is for the judge to figger out.
Individual cops and anecdotal experience to the contrary. I'm a woman who owes her life to a sensible cop, but that's beside the point.
Send your letters demanding an investigation of the police and charges against the thugs!!

Keep up the pressure. Email TJ at:

The video is in the custody of the police department.
We will learn if they deleted anything when it is returned.
One of the Edinboro college girls I referred to found "A Soldiers Perspective" of the incident and e-mailed it to my. Good job on the report!
the hippies filmed the whole thing too, but the police didn’t take their camera!!
Adding more fuel to the fire of outrage, at least from where I sit! The "powers that be" in the borough of Edinboro should be bombarded with outrage and complaints!!!
“the man who loudest proclaims his hatred of money who would most sell his own soul for it.” That is the perfect quote to describe most liberals
Both points needed to be repeated. Thanks.
PING!!!!
