If you really care, be there! The National Mall at 7th Street, 2 p.m. Sunday, April 23, 2006. SECURE OUR BORDERS, NO AMNESTY, ENFORCE OUR IMMIGRATION AND EMPLOYMENT LAWS. Across the country, Americans have watched in outrage as illegal aliens and their enablers have taken to OUR streets demanding their lack of respect for our laws and sovereignty be rewarded with guest worker amnesty and citizenship. Make no mistake, there was no "please" accompanying these demands--there was a menacing "or else" in the air that has left supporters of secure borders and enforcement of our immigration and employment laws virtually...

Two Year Background I'm repeating some of the background from last week's report, in case there are any newcomers reading this. We are approaching the one year anniversary of the April 15, 2005 first of our regular Friday FReeps at Walter Reed and have already passed the one year anniversary of the first FReep. We will have a celebration of this anniversary on Friday, April 21, the first FReep following that anniversary date for the Friday FReeps. This was FReep #51 as FReepers have countered the anti-troop hate group Code Pink at their weekly obscene anti-war blood dance outside Walter...

Two Year BackgroundThis was FReep #50 as FReepers have countered the anti-troop hate group Code Pink at their weekly obscene anti-war blood dance outside Walter Reed Army Medical Center for over a year and this FReep occurred more than two years after DC Chapter FReepers first countered leftist anti-troop demonstrators at Walter Reed.On March 15, 2004, there was a preliminary skirmish, more than a year before the regular dueling protests between FReepers and Pinkos started. The leftists, including many Pinkos, protested at Walter Reed as they traveled in a mock funeral procession from Dover Air Force Base, Delaware to Walter...

We had 32 people on hand for today's event. The other side had maybe 15.

On a bright sunny spring day in Dee Cee, Fred Phelps' caravan of irrational people descended on both Capitol Hill and Walter Reed Army Medical Center. Others can talk to what happened...

On March 23, we FReeped on all four corners of the main gate at Walter Reed again.  For two straight months we've had all four corners following the Pinkos' retreat as explained in the following thread relative to January 20: Code Pink Retreats from Walter Reed-Freepers Win! (Week 40 Report at #1352). We had a great turnout of FReepers from the DC Chapter and beyond including numerous other patriots as well as several Walter Reed patients. The night was slightly cooler than normal for the time of year, but it wasn't bad. This was FReep #49 as FReepers have countered...

THE RELIGION OF PIECES By Michelle Malkin   ·   March 24, 2006 12:39 AM WAKE-UP CALL (via AP/WaPo): Senior Muslim clerics demanded Thursday that an Afghan man on trial for converting from Islam to Christianity be executed, warning that if the government caves in to Western pressure and frees him, they will incite people to "pull him into pieces." ..."Rejecting Islam is insulting God. We will not allow God to be humiliated. This man must die," said cleric Abdul Raoulf, who is considered a moderate and was jailed three times for opposing the Taliban before the hard-line regime was ousted in...

RALLY FOR ABDUL RAHMAN By Michelle Malkin   ·   March 22, 2006 01:03 PM Cam Edwards of OnTap e-mailed me yesterday with an excellent idea--a rally for Abdul Rahman outside the Afghan embassy in Washington, D.C. Thanks to the D.C. Freepers, a permit has been submitted to the D.C. police. Cam reports: The way it works is the D.C. Police only contact you if there’s a problem. As of now, there’s been no contact by the police, so it looks like the rally is a go. Please join us if you can (and if you can't, why not organize an event/prayer...

<p>With BillF's computer issues still keeping him busy, the After Action Reports have been written by substitute authors Albion Wilde and Plea Deal. Plea deal had an emergent issue this week, so she handed off all of her notes and photo links to me. I'll pretty much just be transcribing her fine notes to this report, so please thank her for doing that. My apologies in advance for any omissions or misrememberings.</p>

Michelle Malkin and Cam Edwards had an idea. They wanted to show their support for Abdul Rahman, the Afghani man now on trial in Afghanistan for being a convert to Christianity who is facing a possible death sentence if convicted. Kristinn, Cam and Michelle have been in contact with one another this morning, and we have a permit application filed with MPDC for this Friday. I have confirmed with MPDC that all is OK with our application. The event is officially a "GO." From the earlier announcement on Michelle's blog, here are the particulars: Friday March 24 Noon to 1pm...

<p>Kristinn Taylor of Free Republic and Stephen Cleghorn of Military Families Speak Out appeared on Hardball this evening to discuss the pro-War and anti-War message. Free Republic supports the War, while Military Families Speak Out is against the war and wants to pull our troops out of Iraq immediately. Both guests have family members serving in either Iraq or Afghanistan.</p>

Kristinn just called to say that he'll be on this afternoon to talk about the war, protesters, public opinion... I wasn't able to get much more information, because his phone is pretty busy right now. I think he said he'll be on during the 5:30 segment. For those of us who never watch Hardball, it starts at 5pm on the east coast.

Preparing to greet the commies - Early Saturday Morning DStarr chooses a sign from her arsenal as she prepares to confront the leftist march. This past Saturday, March 18, 2006 we conducted our third annual FReep in commemoration of the start of Operation Iraqi Freedom. As in past years, leftists marched through the streets of Fayetteville, NC (home of Fort Bragg and Pope Airforce Base) and congregated in Rowan Park for their day of music and speeches, coordinated by NC Peace and Justice Coalition. The support the troops rally was conducted on the hillside overlooking Rowan Park. Wolfpat's sound...

FReep #47: On March 10th, we not only held ALL FOUR CORNERS of the main gate at Walter Reed (for the eighth week in a row), but we drove Code Pink off its new "vigil" perch as well!The Pinkos, still holding their weekly blood-dance waaaaay down the block, were caught off-guard and flat-footed in a trap brought about by their own overzealous use of the D.C. Police. We are very fortunate that these intellectual light-weights still haven't learned their lesson when it comes to permits. Hey Gael! Next time you call the cops on FReepers, make sure you have...
