Pro-military group plans showdown with Sheehan
http://www.military.com/NewsContent/0,13319,108727,00.html

We just need our peace vets to join us in Crawford.
If they are looking for a showdown, we won't give it
to them, but we will show them how peace people ask.

Love to you all,
Me

4. Baloney!
There are many, many supporters of CS and her camp!
There were over 600,000 in DC last September! ;)
Many of them had come up from TX and from across the country
and many went back there to TX with her!
There were counter demonstrations at Camp Casey in TX
last time too and she still got the word out!

9. Not talking about numbers.
I am talking about the fact that she is now set up in enemy territory. The cops will do the minimum they legally can do. They may turn a blind eye until someone at Camp Casey slips up and then come down hard.

I am worried about this. I support Cindy-she's the best thorn in Bush's side ever. But I'm worried.

10. You said that won't be enough. That's talking 'numbers'! Isn't it?

I have friends who stayed with the camp in Texas and are going back again in a week
or so and they laughed at what you said! There are ordinances in place now that bars
them from being on public ways and Cindy is now a resident there!

They tried last year too! :rofl: All five of them!! :P
and one wannabe Dylan-type, (singer?) annoying, loudmouth, gee-tarman; who totally sucked!
:rofl:

14. The cops are very good to Cindy
Really. They immediately arrest anyone who threatens her. In fact, many many more war mongers were arrested last August than most folks realize. And at Easter too, I saw them being arrested.

I honestly wouldn't worry. Cindy is very safe in Crawford.

7. I think the "20" he meant were the counter-protesters, not Sheehan's camp.

11. Yup! 20 or so in TX and in DC!
There might have been 20 or so in DC. They were a joke!
And they were a joke in TX last summer too!
:P

5. Let's hope they don't have some hidden plan
Edited on Sat Aug-05-06 12:31 AM by blogslut
...to incite violence. I don't like the messages of "American Pride", "Showdown", "Mute" and "Confront". Nor do I care for the scare quotes that the "writer" of that "article" wrapped around Camp Casey III and Crawford Peace House.

15. Send those threats to the FBI
or send them to the Peace House in Crawford and they will contact the FBI.

6. Seems to me . . .
If these fellas are looking for a fight, I know of a doozy going on right now in the Middle East. And they won't have to pick on some grieving mother who lost her son, they can do battle with people who will fight back against them, bullet for bullet and bomb for bomb.

Bullying pussies.

8. "A grassroots pro-military group..."
"Grassroots," my ass! I guarantee their funding comes from some RNC front group.

13. Well good luck to them
Since Cindy has her own land now and she has always had an awesome security team, these war mongers won't get anywhere near her. LOL

I will be there next week and if I come anywhere near these Cindy haters, I will take pics for DU. But if they are anything like last year's crew, I will need a microscopic and telephoto lens.

17. Who is Leonard Wahl? The same father from last year?
Wahl is leading this act of vulgarity? I agree with the poster who said grassroots my ass!
