Protests/Rallies
Guantanamo Protest in DC
Today in Washington, DC, Amnesty International and the Torture Abolition and Survivors Support Coalition, staged events protesting Guantanamo. I learned that they were in town from reading VanHelsing at Moonbattery, so I took the Blogger Urban Reconnaissance Vehicle (BURV) and headed downtown. The first thing I found was the Amnesty International’s Guantanamo Cell Tour 2008. […]
Zombie in Berkeley
The blogger who influenced me to focus my own blog on the countless protests here in DC, Zombie, has a great photo essay on this weekend’s events in Berkeley against the Marine Recruiting station there. Complete with video; Code Pink was classy enough to disrupt a eulogy a Gold Star Mom was giving for her […]
Flag Day in bitter West Chester, PA
My buddy Skye from the blogs Midnight Blue and Flopping Aces has been pestering me to come up to West Chester, Pennsylvania to cover her pet project, the Victory Group that counters the Chester County Peace Vigil, so I finally relented (I hate driving back into DC after the peace and tranquility of Real America) […]
Rolling Thunder 2008
This post is dedicated to my cousin Scott who couldn’t make it to Rolling Thunder this year because he’s escorting the Vietnam Wall back home as a member of the Patriot Guard. I drank his beer, too. Every year this event gets bigger. This year, according to Fox News, Rolling Thunder included 350,000 motorcycles. I […]
Memorial Day Weekend at Walter Reed
I started my Memorial Day Weekend at my favorite place with my favorite people – the weekly Friday FReep at Walter Reed to welcome the wounded soldiers back from the war. The last time I was there was back on their 3rd Anniversary in March. The FReepers and Protest Warriors still own all four corners […]
Mothers’ Day Peace-nik (now with IVAW)
I went to the Code Pink Mothers’ Day protest in front of the White House two years ago and they were able to scrape together a few hundred people; They even had giant puppets; But those heady days of yore are gone. Today, they couldn’t even get in front of the White House. The closest […]
Code Pink (rhymes with witches)
Our favorite commies to hate have been at it again out in Berkeley, CA. Now that Medea Benjamin has come back from Syria, they’ve shifted into high gear. This time they’re casting spells on the marines recruiting there. Melanie Morgan has links and pictures here and here. And of course, my favorite photo blogger, Zombie, […]
Jeremiah Wright at the National Press Club
I read over at Michelle Malkin‘s, and later at Ace Of Spades, about Jeremiah Wright’s impending speech at the National Press Club for an “NPC Breakfast”. Michele had links to the Free Republic‘s intention to protest there, so I packed up my cameras and headed over there. It rained the whole time the Free Republic […]
