SUPPORT OUR TROOPS! Freedom Rally Against Terror and Tyranny on Sat., Oct. 25, 2003 in Wash., D.C.
D.C. Chapter ^ | Tuesday, October 7, 2003 | Kristinn and Angelwood

Posted on 10/07/2003 8:35:23 PM PDT by kristinn

For too long, America's fighting men and women have been laboring on a two-front war not of their choosing: The front against terror and tyranny that they volunteered for, and the flank that we must defend for them against efforts by the media and leftists to undermine their morale and resolve.

All summer long, and now into fall, our brave men and women have been doing great work in Iraq, Afghanistan and other areas around the world eliminating terrorist threats to our security while bringing freedom to oppressed people.

Those efforts have been buried under an onslaught of biased reporting and political maneuvering by the enemies of freedom at home and abroad.

On Saturday, October 25 at 11 a.m., patriotic Americans will gather at the Capitol in Washington, D.C. to stand up for our troops and reiterate our support for them, their Commander-in-Chief, America and the war on terror.

All FReepers and lurkers in good standing, their friends and families, and all who support our troops and their mission are encouraged to attend. Nothing but a strong public showing will do. Those in uniform are making great sacrifices. The least we can do is give up one day to say "thank you!" to them.

What: The Freedom Rally Against Terror and Tyranny

When: Saturday, October 25, 2003, 11 a.m. to 2 p.m.

Where: The West Front of the Capitol Building at 3rd Street, on the Mall.

Bring: American and Gadsden flags (large and small,) service and Blue Star flags, and signs bearing messages of support for our troops.

Confirmed Speakers:

The Honorable Robert K. Dornan
Niger Innis
Blanquita Cullum
Rebecca Davis.

More speakers to be announced soon.

This rally will be held rain or shine.

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

This will be the 6th rally in the last 18 months we have sponsored. We haven't done them all by ourselves and we are most appreciative of the help we have received. We humbly ask once again for any help that can be provided to send a message of support for our troops. Please click here to help.

Special thanks to Registered for the logos.

I found this posted on a nasty website in reference to the Ocober 25th Canswer march:

"...the "as yet unamed anti-capitalist group" has called for an anti-capitalist bloc to converge at 11:30pm at 7th & P st and proceed to march down 7th st , eventually meeting with the A.N.S.W.E.R march rise up against imperialism abroad and colonialism in dc! stand up for affordable housing, healthcare and schools! a march for all people who are subjected to the endless oppression and exploitation of our government and corporate interests"

Note the time: 11:30 P.M. (Heheheh) and does this mean I should bring my "Straight Girls Luv Capitalists" sign?

I can't be there but will fly our large 4th of July American Flag on that day instead of the smaller one. God Bless our Troops where ever they may be serving!

Thanks for the bump. I hope the weather is as nice on the 25th as it was this past weekend -- it was sunny and warm.

Just thinking out loud. Wouldn't it be great for Jim Rob himself to be a part of this? Wish he could make it.

I remember his origional orders to March for Justice. What year was that? Wow, time flies.

Hope to be able to make it again to hear Bob Dornan. I have heard him three times now and he just sends an American Positive Spirit down through my bones. God Bless Bob Dornan and his beautiful wife.

Hope to see you again soon. Can you get on radio again soon to promote the rally?

October 31 is the 5 year anniversary of the March for Justice when 5000 people gathered on a bright, sunny day. It was certainly a memorable event.

"Can you get on radio again soon to promote the rally?"

You bet sweet Angelwood. Closer to the date I will call Bob Durgin, WHP. Mr Durgin has been wonderful and we have had many new Freepers because of his program in the Central Pennsylvania and Allentown area.

The Kennesaw 911 Memorial on the Kennesaw Battlefield was a spectacular and overwhelming sight to witness. 3300 American flags standing silently while representing the 911 victims. As a graphic designer, I felt compelled to design this art print to commemorate this historic and tragic event. Hopefully this jpg. of the print shows up in this forum. If not, I put up a web site at http://www.kennesaw911artprint.com that tells more about it. Please send me your comments.

Thanks for the bumps. The print is beautiful and I imagine it was a very moving display of flags commemorating the 3300 who lost their lives on 911. We will not forget.
