reporting in from Bezerkley:
Pro-troop demonstration
still going strong –but here is my after action report after 15 hours on the frontlines.
If I were a
headline writer I would describe the situation as CHAOS AND ANARCHY IN BERKELEY today.
Not by our side
–by the Marine haters and American traitors.
The cops were
openly hostile toward the people who showed up at 5:00 a.m., never stepping in to protect the patriots from the assaults that
took place against elderly folks, Gold Star parents, Blue Star families and Joe and Jane Citizen who were waving the flags
and showing their pride in the Marines. The police allowed hundreds of Berkeley High School kids (accompanied by their teachers)
to gather with CodePink, receive their mandatory face masks and F---k Bush t-shirts, and allowed them to mill around our PA
where they tried to cut the power cords to the system.
Berkeley police
repeatedly allowed CodePink to violate our permits, and never lifted a finger to stop their crowd from interfering with our
activities until the very end, after we screamed blue bloody hell.
When Catherine
Moy, the Executive Director of MAF called the police to tell them a riot was erupting in the early hours –THEY HUNG
UP ON HER.
Cat called the
Highway Patrol, who referred her back to the Berkeley police –WHO HUNG UP ON HER.
It was positively shameful.
Move America
Forward’s attorney Jim Sweeney took depositions from ten people who were assaulted by CodePink, International A.N.S.W.E.R.
and socialists who showed up en masse.
The City
Council has been notified by fax that we are filing a federal lawsuit for deprivation of our civil rights.
We didn’t
start this fight, but we are damn sure gonna finish it.
The pro-troops demonstration
is still going strong at 7:30 p.m. PST, with all streets around the Berkeley City Council closed off as the CodePinkos continue
to receive preferential treatment by the Berkeley PD.
Move America
Forward’s sound permit was turned off at 5:00 in the afternoon, while the Pinkos were allowed to use their system to
sing Kumbaya and other 60’s peace chants.
Berkeley, the
birthplace of free speech, is now officially the center of intolerant hatred for anyone who sticks up for the men and women
who are fighting and dying to protect THEIR rights.
Before our sound
system was nearly sabotaged, a young man posing as a pro-troop supporter asked to speak to the crowd. I allowed him
to talk (about his family’s ‘service’, when he started spewing obscenities about the ‘illegal,
immoral, unjust war’ . I grabbed the microphone back, and he tried to clobber me with it.
Gold Star Dad
Mark Crowley knocked him to the ground, where he found a faceful of dirt to keep him company.
Our side sang
God Bless America, America the beautiful and other stirring songs that seemed to enrage the elderly commies.
25,000 petitions
were collected by Move America Forward with the help of other pro-troops groups like Gathering of Eagles, EaglesUp, Vets for
Freedom and others.
There were Eagles
EVERYWHERE today.
And Patriot
Guard Riders.
And American
Legion vets.
And members
of the Military Order of the Purple Heart.
5,000 petition
signatures were also collected by an organization in Washington headed by Nicholas Provenzano, who flew out to Berkeley on
the red-eye to deliver to the City Council announcing an economic boycott of Berkeley until it reverses it shameful treatment
of our Marines.
Red, White and
Blue Americans rushed to our side from Atlanta, Georgia, New York, Pennsylvania, Colorado, San Diego, and other parts of the
United States.
Our
crowds numbered into the thousands throughout the day.
So gratifying.
So humbling.
People of all
ages, races, and political backgrounds (yes even some incensed liberals) honored our active duty service members serving in
Iraq and Afghanistan, and in other parts around the world.
We spoke of
the sacrifice and the nobility of the military families who support their sons and daughters, husbands and wives.
And we gave a HOOO-AWW especially
to our Marines, who find themselves prevented from speaking while under assault, not from a evil enemy abroad, but from the
insurgents here at home.
We should
be proud and exhilarated by the turn-out and passion of so many people who set aside their lives, showed up, and spoke
out.
I don’t
know what will happen with the Berkeley City Council, but I would be you that dollars to donuts, they’ll issue some
mealy-mouthed WE SUPPORT THE TROOPS, JUST NOT THEIR MISSION crap, and then keep in place all the restrictions that make recruiting
on Shattuck avenue all but impossible.
I have no idea
how the media will portray this historic event –I can only tell you that 3 TV helicopters were overhead almost all day
long, every major media outlet in the Bay Area, as well as national TV and print reporters–but OUR people spoke eloquently,
passionately, and with conviction about the hateful attitude that the City of Berkeley has displayed toward the USMC.
Warmest,
Melanie
