Some of the semi-rational protesters there were mad at the Patriot Act. I didn't support it either, but this group doesn't really care about that. They'd take our freedoms away in a minute.

Don't know why you called yourself an A-hole, but I realize a truthful answer would have required more of the attention-span-deprived pinhead's time than he would have been willing to give you. Good show, Dan!

It seems just a short time ago there was no such thing as a "conservative protestor" or a "republican protestor", or a "libertarian protestor" for that matter.

Nowadays they not only exist, they are as hardy as, if not hardier than the protestors from the Democratic National Committee(DNC).

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.

Where oh where is the draft when you need it? Special Yahoo Units will need to be set up for this gang. Picture the ending of the movie "Hair."

I'm not surprised at the low turnout. I was at MSU back during the late 60's and I have little recollection of anti-war activity back then. Maybe a few liberal arts students and their professors who took over a building for a talk-in or something but they were a fringe bunch and everyone knew it. Heck, shoulder length hair on men drew derision and laughter up until about 68.

On the other hand, a good panty raid like the one at Brody back in '67 or a riot like after the NCAA finals a few years ago, and you have thousands of participants. MSU still is much more of a party school than a Berkeley/Columbia peacenik school.

Congratulations on your terrific FReep! This is extremely important. Confronting the leftist cant is half the battle. The people need to see that we are doing the right thing in pursuing the anti-terror war, and that there are patriots willing to get out and condemn the anti-war scum. Many thanks to all you loyal Spartans.

Yep. If you like it here, stick around; but if your roots take you away, then follow them home; fur cryin' out loud, be happy.

The same types were at Rock Center, pretending to be strict Constitutionalists. LOL

Good work, Dan! Long time no see. Kudos to all who participated.

Way to, Dan! Wish I could have made it. Sounds like there are more conservatives in East Lansing than I had imagined.
