Thanks go out to: the Maryland TRT for 'plan B'; James Parmalee of NorthernVirgianiaGOP.com for helping to get the word out about today; and special thanks to Sean Hannity, whose mention of our demonstration on his newly syndicated radio show yesterday brought out dozens of people from up and down the East Coast.

I left out many details, such as signs and conversations, so please add your observations and comments.

EAGLES UP !!!

A Bump and a heads up. There is an article on the BBC web site that mentions Free Republic.

Bump!!!!

"... As the demoralized stragglers quietly brought up the rear carrying anti-meat, pro-vegetarian banners, they were rhetorically given a parting kick in the ass with mocking cries of "Gardening is murder! Weeds have rights, too!" from the demonstrators, which brought howls of laughter from the LEOs--who could finally relax now that trouble had passed."

LOL! Oh, boy. That's funny.

Every time those commies think they did something today, the image of your mob waving flags will flash through their heads.

I wish I lived in VA.

"All we are saying, is give war a chance".

BWAHAHAHAHA! Beautiful! I love it! Stick in the face of these commie fascists!

[patriciaruth]

Bump! Good show!

[deadhead]

Great report! Thank You Patriots! Wish I lived closer, it would have been an honor to FReep with DC FReepers.

[CheneyChick]

Excellent, kristinn! The creativity you guys showed is fantastic. Are we gonna get to see any pictures?

God Bless America

For the first time since their campaign of roving city-to-city terrorism began in Seattle several years ago, Communist/anarchist, America-hating 'anti-globalization' protesters were met by citizens determined to stand up against their violence and intimidation.

You mean...They banned all the Brigadiers on FR?

[Roscoe]

APPLAUSE

[blam]

Bravo. Another fine job.

[P-Marlowe]

Great Story. You got Pictures?

[litany_of_lies]

Holy ****! What an awesome job!

The Washington Compost claimed there were only 50 of you and gave 90% of the ink to the protestors.

THE UPI FEED to the Washington Times said there were only "a handful" of counter-demos.

They were wrong about the numbers, but correct in their characterization. You were indeed "a handful"--more than the weenies could handle. Way to go!

[anniegetyourgun]

I thank God for you all.

[kristinn]

It kind of goes without saying, but I should mention that the flags at the Navy Memorial were well-protected today by the courageous men and women in law enforcement today. They did a great job of keeping the peace and respecting the rights of both sides.

[Angelwood]

Great recap of the day, Warlord -- thanks for taking on this added responsibility. The pictures should be worth waiting for.

[LurkerNoMore!]

Thanks & a Bump!

[ao98]

Great work. As a USN veteran I thank you for protecting the Navy memorial from the lowlife commie scum. The D.C. freepers are American hero's

[TnGOP]

My heartfelt thanks goes out to those in attendance today. Patriotism is alive and well in America. President Reagan would be proud of you, as I am sure 41 and 43 are. My Free Republic family has made me proud yet again.

[Feiny]

Great post (as usual) Kristinn! I heard you on "Unspun with AnnZ".

I have not seen the good Dr. online in ages! How are you?

I did see some news coverage. It looked like more police in riot gear than anyone else! I also saw THE BEST sign:

WELCOME TRAITORS!!

Who had that one?
