Rocklin Republicans Kicking Democraps A** Again! (Pics) They just can’t help being so dumb!!!! It was about 103 degrees in the blazing sun when we Rocklin Republicans gathered Wednesday on the corner of Park and Sunset to counter the “cut and run crowd” across the street. Rocklin Republicans By the way, the four people in the middle have sons/brother in Iraq. We had a very interesting evening standing out on the corner with our pro troops and Bush signs. A man stopped as he was making a right hand turn and gave us a bunch of patriotic balloons and hearty...

This FReep is a continuation of a struggle over more than one year with Code Pink at Walter Reed after a preliminary skirmish more than two years ago. The background is in the beginning of a report from a while back.

Two Year Background I'm repeating, with modifications, some of the background from the last two reports, in case there are any newcomers reading this. That is because of the anniversary dates that have occurred. The one year anniversary of the April 15, 2005 first of our regular Friday FReeps at Walter Reed passed last Saturday.  We will have a commemoration of this anniversary on Friday, April 21, the first FReep following that anniversary date for the Friday FReeps. The commemoration is to honor our troops, especially those wounded and being treated, that we have been proud to support for over...

REMINDER OF DATE CHANGES: Sunday, April 23 Secure Our Border Rally has been changed to MONDAY, APRIL 24 to join 9/11 Families for a Secure America. CLICK FOR REVISED INFOFriday, April 28 Fred Phelps Counter Rally has been moved to Phelps' new time on SATURDAY, APRIL 29, 10:30 AM TIL 11:30 AM, still at Bethesda Naval Hospital in Bethesda, Maryland. ***************************************************** Week 16 is a little later than I preferred, but Easter and work delayed our free time. Week 16 was finally warm, but too windy for out banner. The FReep started out with only a slight breeze, but got...

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...

Due to Week 14's technical difficulties, this post will cover Weeks 14 and 15. Week 14 was GOOD, BAD & GRUMP, the weather was GOOD, but BAD that we were out numbered by the GRUMPIES. Week 15 was also GOOD, BAD & GRUMPY, GOOD that we out numbered the fair weather GRUMPIES, but the weather was very BAD. I'm actually glad the Saturdays in Olney have the bad weather because then Fridays at Walter Reed get the better weather. This allows the troops to come out and talk with us and also allows us to Thank them for their service....

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...

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...

I just received a phone call from Kristinn!! The DC Chapter of Protest Warriors obtained a permit for Code Pink’s side of the street today after the Pinko’s forgot to renew their permit. The blood dancers tried to stick it out for about 20-25 minutes before they tucked tail and retreated a block away to the closed entrance. Freepers and Protest Warriors now have all four corners outside the main entrance to WRAMC!

<p>On Jan 27, we held all four corners of the main gate at Walter Reed for the second week in a row. Per last week's thread and report, the Pinkos have been relegated to an area about a block away such that the wounded and their relatives do NOT have to pass close by them to enter or leave Walter Reed Army Medical Center. We had a great turnout of FReepers from the DC Chapter and beyond including numerous Protest Warriors and other patriots. Although the night was cool, it was still warmer than usual for a January night.</p>

On Friday the 13th, the Pinkos had an unlucky night. We had a great turnout of FReepers from the DC Chapter and beyond. It was a warm night thanks to the global warming caused by our SUVs.   We were able to deploy the MOAB, Mother-of-all-Banners. This was FReep #39 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 10 months now. We had a patriot from Michigan extend her trip to DC in order to stand with us. We were likewise honored to be joined...

<p>On Jan 6, the first FReep of the new year, we had a great turnout of FReepers from the DC Chapter and beyond. It was too cold and windy to deploy the MOAB, Mother-of-all-Banners. This was FReep #38 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 10 months now. Code Pink was videotaped stealing one of the FReepers' signs and then caught red-handed (pink-handed?) after lying straight-faced to a police officer.  This happened after a stunning and brilliant tactic devised by kristinn. The details are on this thread: Code Pink & Kevin McCarron Caught Pink-Handed Stealing Marine Parents' Sign at Walter Reed, but the basic story will also be included below. We were honored to be joined by the father and brother of Joshua Sparling, the war-wounded Walter Reed patient, who had received left-wing hate mail wishing for his death (see the multiple threads here). We were also honored to welcome a FReeper and his wife from Texas and her father from Italy.</p>

On Dec 30, the eve of New Year's eve, we had a great turnout of FReepers from the DC Chapter and beyond. As was true last week, the weather was quite mild for this time of year. This was FReep #37 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 9 months now. FReepers brought New Year's noise-makers and party hats to celebrate the last FReep of 2005. We verbally-thrashed the Pinkos with  First-Amendment-protected shouts and chants. We also occasionally used our noise-makers. As the Pinkos...

On Dec 23, we had a great turnout of FReepers from the DC Chapter and beyond, despite it being two days before Christmas. This was probably the warmest Walter Reed FReep this month. This was FReep #36 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 9 months now. As happened last week, Santa Claus attended, as did many of his helpers, and a couple of his reindeer.  Santa and the other FReepers chanted and shouted at the Pinkos for much of the time. Unlike last...

<p>On Dec 16, we had a great turnout of FReepers from the DC Chapter and beyond. We were happy to have warmer temperatures than the last few weeks, but patches of snow and ice remained on the ground. This was FReep #35 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 9 months now. As happened last week, Santa Claus attended, as did many of his helpers, and a couple of his reindeer.  Police were out in force, apparently called in by one or more of the Pinkos, despairing of the verbal thrashing that we had given them last week.</p>

<p>On Dec 9, with temperatures below freezing, snow and ice on much of the ground, and an occasional breeze, we had a great turnout of FReepers from the DC Chapter and beyond. This was FReep #34 as FReepers have countered Code Pinkos at their weekly obscene anti-war blood dance outside Walter Reed Army Medical Center as they have for 9 months now. Santa Claus attended, as did many of his helpers, and a couple of his reindeer.</p>

On Nov 25, the day after Thanksgiving, we had a good turnout of FReepers from the DC Chapter and beyond. It was a cold night, but there was little or no wind.  This was FReep #32 as FReepers have countered Code Pinkos at their weekly obscene anti-war blood dance outside Walter Reed Army Medical Center as their have for 8 months now.  We overheard a soldier telling off the Pinkos and we had a brief encounter with a Pinko who let on what they really think of our troops. Code Pink is truly stuck in a quagmire as FReepers severely...

<p>On Nov 18 we had a great turnout of FReepers from the DC Chapter and beyond. It was a cool (wind chill 33 to 35 degrees), but relatively nice, evening.  This was FReep #31 as FReepers have countered Code Pinkos at their weekly obscene anti-war blood dance outside Walter Reed Army Medical Center as their have for over 7 months.  We had a great evening as the bus of wounded troops came back early from Fran O'Brien's, catching the leftists in disarray, as they were packing up. Also, we had a very nice visit from a police officer at the end of our night.</p>
