Action Report - East Lansing Protest vs America Haters
Myself | Dan from MI

Posted on 01/18/2002 1:53:26 PM PST by Dan from Michigan

I met up at the Student Union with the MSU GOP and Young Americans for freedom. There were about 25-30 of us or so. Two freepers, Jack and Jane Liberty came all the way from Eastpointe to East Lansing. There were several signs on our side there, including "The 60's are over", We love the USA", "Force is necessary", "Daisy Cutters Work", "Give War a chance" and my sign - "PICK A BETTER COUNTRY - MOVE THERE"

There were about 40 or so America haters, communist, capitalist haters, and the like there. One of them was a real jagoff to say the least, and I thought was going to start a fight. Their chants were on the line of - "F the US" "FBI CIA KKK Same thing", "Fascist USA", etc.

It started at the Union, then we went along Grand River to the Marine recruiting station. One of the jerks went up and picked up flyers and littered them all over the place outside. I thought they cared about the environment. These people hate our troops, hate us, and hate the environment0.

We all continued down Grand River and then Hagadorn toward the FBI building there. One of the long haired pencil necks showed pictured of Afghanastan at me and said "Do you support this" "YEAH!! I DO" "HOW CAN YOU BE HUMAN AND SUPPORT THIS???" I simply replied "Cause I'm an A-hole".

At the FBI - They started their FBI attacks, and then called us all racistfascistbigotbabykillinghomophobenazifascistnazinazikkknazietc. They then rallied against oil and capitialism and America. They can pick a better country and move there.

The good news is that we had a decent turnout for a cold Friday day. Not everyone here is an America hater and a Commie. There were a number of us there backing our troops. The bystandards OVERWHELMINGLY backed us. Lastily, our side had several American flags. NOT ONE was on the Anti-American side. Not one. Also, on our side, we all looked like average people. The other side...spiked hair, you get the picture.

Thanks to all that make it, and check the papers in the Lansing area. We made the TV news, and also the Lansing State Journal and State News. We did well.

Another group, supporting the bombing and the U.S. efforts to eradicate terrorism, also showed up, but the demonstrations remained peaceful.

LOL. Thank you, Mighigan Freepers, for "also showing up". Way to go!

A G**-D*** New York minute, at that!

We know who's side you are on in this debate. Sad. Like Dan said to the other America haters - Find a better country and move there.

Of course you were right in the middle of the America haters wearing your JBT fatigues sans gear and chanting "F the US" .. "Fascist USA" etc... Stomping on America really made your day, right VA Advogado.

Well, if we bring libertarianism into it, I look at it this way. The bad guys used force on us. Libertarians(small l at least) support the use of force in self defense, and this is self defense.

This people are also Communists. They hate capitalism, which is the founding block of libertarianism. If these people get in charge, we'll all be the first killed off by the next Pol Pot.

RE: your slanderous post #69

"Sad."

I'll give you effing sad, you poor dumb, illiterate b*stard!

If you had actually read my posts #9 and #43, you might not have stumbled to your flawed conclusion.

Don't try to smear me, you sad excuse for a human being.
