SUPPORT OUR TROOPS - Patriots Rally for America IV - Saturday, March 1, 2003, Washington, D.C.
DC Chapter of Free Republic ^ | February 18, 2003 | Angelwood and Kristinn

Posted on 02/18/2003 8:35:34 PM PST by Angelwood

This is important. Drop what you’re doing. Pack the car, get on a plane, a train, a bus or start walking. Our troops need your support right now! They’re laying it on the line for us overseas and all they are seeing in the media is hundreds of thousands of anti-war/anti-American demonstrators marching in our streets.

As evidenced by this article Anti-war Protests Anger U.S. Troops Inside Kuwait those demonstrations are starting to affect morale. You can do something about that, but it will take time, effort and sacrifice -- a modest sacrifice compared to our men and women in uniform waiting for the the word to take out Saddam and his tyrannical terrorist regime.

The D.C. Chapter of Free Republic urges all FReepers and lurkers in good standing, as well as their friends and families, veterans and their friends and families and all others who want to stand up for America and support our troops to join us in Washington, D.C. on Saturday, March 1, 2003 for the Patriots Rally for America IV from 11 a.m. until 3 p.m at the outdoor Sylvan Theater on the grounds of the Washington Monument.

As the United States prepares to take the next step in the war on terrorism with probable action in Iraq, it is imperative that we get out and show support for our troops, our Commander-in-Chief and all that’s good about America.

Our troops are there to give their lives if necessary in order to prevent another 9-11 from happening to us. Now more than ever, they need to see your support back home. Please don’t let them down.

We are asking you to bring large American and Gadsden flags. Also, signs bearing messages supporting America, our troops, our Commander-in-Chief and the war on terrorism.

That same day, anti-American leftists will be holding an "anti-war" rally and march in D.C. The "anti-war" rally, organized by IAC-A.N.S.W.E.R. , a front group for the communist World Workers Party, will be held on the Mall near the Capitol Building between 3rd Street and 7th Street, N.W. The organizers have permitted other sites as staging areas for many in their group to assemble and then march to the main event. Some of these staging areas include: Constitution Gardens by the Vietnam War Memorial, the Northeast quadrant of the Washington Monument, and Freedom Plaza at 14th Street and Pennsylvania Avenue, N.W.

Another group has plans to assemble in the DuPont Circle area and march to Constitution Avenue, N.W. between 17th and 23rd Streets.

We do not expect any trouble from those groups. Law enforcement officers will be everywhere to keep the peace and ensure that everyone’s rights are respected.

As always, the D.C. Chapter's rules for demonstrating will be in effect. Briefly, they are: No violence, no racism, no profanity, no threats, no provocations, obey the law and treat all law enforcement officers with respect.

When: Saturday, March 1, 2003 from 11 a.m. until 3 p.m., rain or shine.

Where: The Sylvan Theater, located on the south side of the Washington Monument grounds at Independence Avenue and 15th Street, S.W.

I believe we need to go ahead on March First. The main idea is to show support for our troops and the disarmament of Saddam.

While it would be fun to go up against the leftists, I think more of our crowd would be inclined to come out with the threat of confrontation not present.

On the 15th, what they are protesting against will be all over, 'cept for some shouting at the Eurobuzzards and Islamic rug merchants (that will be trying to get a slcie of the pie they did'nt lift a finger for) to stay the F*** away from "New Texas"

Rush says that he expects action mid-March, and I think he is right. It will still be a couple weeks to set up in Turkey (if they decide to let us) and there is still much to do to get the military situated and ready for action in other parts of the mid-East.....

I agree.

It will also give us a chance to take the center ring for once, instead of being overshadowed by lefty street theater and general mischief making.

To: Mudboy Slim; All
The Patriots Rally for America IV is a go for March 1, 2003 -- if you can get here to stand up for the troops, our Commander-in-Chief and our country, please do so. If you can't travel to DC, please try to make it to another Pro-America, Pro-Troops rally nearer to your home.

Our sources tell us that A.N.S.W.E.R. is still coming to DC on March 1 (as well as their "Convergence" on March 15). They are scaling back their numbers considerably, but they still plan to have staging areas and march to the Capitol with the main rally at 3rd and Constitution.

No way that EX-poster was military...Lib'ral DOLTS just believe that saying they are military or EX-military gives them some sorta FReedom to spew Lib'ral nonsense and we'll cut 'em some slack!!

Not bloody likely...MUD
