I regret to inform you fellow Freepers about an incident that occurred today while I was peacefully (but stoutly) counter demonstrating the filthy peacenicks. I charged right in, by myself because I was the only counter protester, into a crowd of 300 or so and gave them a good solid piece of my Marine Gulf Vet mind with my 10 watt megaphone. The local news then asked to interview me and I agreed. I proudly held my sign that stated that "peaceniks are parasites of freedom", adorned with the Free Republic logo in front of me. During the the very calm and thoughtful interview I noticed that one of the peaceniks had adorned herself in a very fancy KKK "ghost" outfit and was standing immediately behind and to the side of me in the camera frame. The insinuation of course is that I'm a member, and the video and pictures will be used against both myself and I'm sorry to predict, Free Republic.
I'm really sorry, guys, I'm devastated to know that I could have caused some harm to FR. I'm really sorry.
Maybe we have enough of a head start to block some of the predictable outcome of this.

Kudos to you for not mowing him down. Getting spit on is a serious adrenaline raising event. Thanks for going out. Not everyone did.

If you get another chance just let it be known that you were totally shocked that racists in KKK garb were protesting for peace. " That guy,
h@!! no he wasn't with me. I served in Vietnam with . . . " Then let the peace crowd figure out how to counter that.

Robert Service would have been proud of you. As would other Dawson/Alaska cheechakos including Wyatt Earp, Klondike Kate and the Mizner brothers. I salute you!

Just ask Fox News to superimpose Sen Robert Byrd's
(Dem. West Virginia) face on the head of the guy.
After all it could be him...

I ripped of your sign, but I
did put it to good use !
I tried to improve upon the statement but could not.
I was going to go with "Peaceniks Unworthy of Freedom" until I saw this pic on another thread.

Would not the KKK be isolationist enough to not support the war and be right along with the hippies?

Local channel 11 just ran the clip and showed me with the fake KKK dude. It was worse than I could have imagined. They did not however show the FR logo. Now I'm really pissed.
I hope God will forgive my thoughts...
