Freepers’ Last Stand at Walter Reed

| July 29, 2011

The last of the 328 Friday nights the DC Chapter of Free Republic stood to welcome the wounded troops back from the battlefields of our wars;

Code Pink is there in awe-inspiring numbers, too;

Well, to be truthful one is Code Pink and the other is union thug Bruce Wolfe.

See more pictures at my Flickr Photostream.

I almost forgot that Marooned in Marin is here, too. You’re getting these photos live as they happen, by the way, I’m blogging from the parking lot. Is that dedication or what?

Thanks to you, Jonn, for the pics and reports over the years on these friday happenings.

Thanks, too, to those great folks who stood the watch and kept the faith.

Street, the crowds of code pinkos has been small for years now. Ever since the Freepers took all four corners at the main gate.

Not like that. Last time I was there were about 15 of ’em…

What AW1 Tim said, Freepers are AWESOME!

I was in DC for GoE II during September ’07 in support of GEN Petraeus and having heard of the Freepers battling Code Pink at the Walter Reed gate, I made a point of being there that Friday night.

It was flat amazing.

When I got MEDEVAC’d in 2007 (for pancretitis) The thing that truly amazed me was the response I got when I got to Maryland. complete strangers cheering me. People I had no clue who they were welcoming me home. Wounded Warrior foundation and the Red Cross, and I don’t even know who else went out of their way to make me welcome. thinking about it still makes me well up. A complete stranger telling me to lay down my burdens, I was safe. I was HOME. I’m not sure I have words to express how much that means to me.

Thank you. Thank you for keeping the faith.

You are most welcome, Doc. There’s a whole lot of folks that appreciate what our troops are doing and have done. It just gets glossed over by the MSM.

Anytime you get up to Maine, the beer’s on me.

A great job, thanks to all who were ever there.
Pretty lame demonstration when you’re outnumbered three to one by your signs. But, that’s what we’ve come to expect from Code Stink.

Great report, Jonn!

[…] This Aint Hell […]

I caught you talking to the cops

John, you saw the car accident before the Freeper event. In fact, you were the car be hind the accident.
Unhlike many people today that “Just don’t want to get involved”, you reported the entire thing to the police.
This will make it much easier for the injured.

Thank you for doing that.
