Peaceniks "celebrate" Memorial Day with Anti War Rally and Swastikas

h/t to 5th listener Lew who runsdown Washington state and other John Edwards' inspired anti war rallies on the one day we celebrate the men and women who gave their lives to make us free. Lookie at what some of the fruitbats did in Washington. They switched out American flags for swastikas. They still don't get it.

Here's what Lew observed:

...vandals not only took American Flags off of the graves of Veterans and burned them, but replaced them with hand drawn Swastikas both on Sunday and again on Monday, Memorial Day!
Here's Blackfive's Uncle Jimbo "crashing" (aka videotaping) an anti war rally. Good stuff.

Here's a letter I received from gentle listener Jim about his Memorial Day:

Victoria,

I watched most of the PBS National Memorial Day Concert from our nations capital tonight.
I've watched it many times in recent years. I just can't help myself I guess.
The actor, Charles Durning always shows up for this concert. Just as strong, and brave as he was that day on Omaha beach during WWII.
Admittedly, his memory is faltering a little, but his determination and courage will never fade.
I was especially moved by a mother’s lette to her son, now buried at Arlington National Cemetery . Her 20 year old son... a casualty of our war on terrorism.
She visits him every week... and writes to him, sitting quietly next to his head stone.
Her letters, read by actress Dianne Wiest, opened her heart and grief to the nation.
They also showed the hero she believes her son to be. And the hero our nation so dearly needs in these times.
I have two great uncles who are veterans of World War II.
Uncle Larry passed away many years ago. Uncle Ralph is still with us.
Uncle Ralph never talked about his experiences defending our country with our family. He did however open up a little to a newspaper reporter on the occasion of his retirement as a barber in S.W. Portland.
I'm certain his experiences during World War II were not all happy times. I'm also certain veterans of the greatest generation wanted to live the remainder of their lives full of happy memories. Not the memories of a horrific war.
He does play a mean accordion though and is happy to play it anytime.

During World War II, some people didn't believe in killing.... or war….. at any price. They still did their part though.
They worked jobs for companies that provided supplies to our soldiers and the war effort.
I believe it was a matter of love of your country, and caring for our soldiers, even though they could not condone killing another person.
There are no bond or scrap drives for our war on terror. Today, chances are, you don’t work for a company that provides supplies to our soldiers. But many of us still care.
We do not have to go without anything today because of our war effort.
Yet people forget too easily the sacrifices made a little more than five years ago.
Innocent people instantly lost their lives..... because of misplaced hatred.
Innocent people gave their lives, trying to save others.
Brave soldiers give their lives today...... so that it won't happen again.
Other soldiers come home...broken but not forgotten.
Yet...instead of supporting our troops fighting the same hatred that killed thousands of American citizens instantly on 9/11, some people want to paint America as the enemy.
Just as we will never forget the fallen soldiers of wars past, we should not forget the fallen soldiers of the war our country is fighting now.
And we should NEVER forget the thousands who lost their lives for NOTHING...just a few short years ago.
Also, never forget the sacrifices of every single family during this war.
And we should never, ever forget those who are still with us...
who fought in past wars to keep our country, and our ancestors safe.

Jim

The Democratic Party is really telling AMERICA who they are, and what they stand for. I've known for decades that Democrats Imbrace Communism, and HATE the Military.
Most Democrats must be Cheering "CHAVEZ" (taking over TV STATIONS). I'm glad I didn't see any of these HUMAN DEBRI yesterday on Memorial Day.

Klatu said...

Ps: The video here (which was very good) reminds me of your typical
ANTI-AMERICAN chants, minus the scuffling, on PUBLIC ACCESS TV.
Of course the Left would not have put the (ON SCREEN WRITINGS) on there videos. Public Access TV is basically owned by the COMMUNIST LEFT, and you would never see those Swastikas on the lefts Video's. PUBLIC ACCESS, give me a break. Its Liberal Access TV.

Honest Abe said...

The guy taking the video sounds like a little bitch whinning to the vets. I would have loved to see him get his ass beat by the vets in the name of Memorial Day.

Anyways, looks like the fat boy red-neck videographer could stand lose a couple pounds as the hog was riding deep on its fenders. Sad sight really.

Peace!

sarah said...

Vandals burned those flags. Not 'peaceniks'. Low-life scum burned those flags. Not 'democrats'.

Victoria, I swear you love seeing stories like these so that you can jump to the conclusion that all anti-war people hate the troops.

Anti-war folks support the troops because we want them home. Alive. You want them to stay in Iraq and die.

Klatu said...

SARAH---YOUR A LIARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
stay over at Portland.indymedia.communist


Dishonest ABE _ __ _ _ what a joke sir

Klatu said...

Ps: Sarah and Dishonest Abe, since everyone knows Democrats Hate the Military (A Proven Fact) arn't you GUYS just thrilled that YOUR FRIEND "HUGO CHAVEZ" is doing what you _ _ _ _ _ have always wanted to do. Remember to salute your fellow Comrades.

Klatu said...

PPs: Dishonest Abe --- Instead of PEACE I believe you ment

SURRENDER

THE PEACE SIGN MEANS "SURRENDER"
THE PEACE SYMBLE MEANS "SURRENDER"

YOU COMMUNISTS DON'T FOOL ANYONE ANYMORE

Lew Waters said...

Honest abe, did it occur to you that Black Five and those involved in it are Veterans? The "fat boy red-neck" happens to be former Army Special Forces. You may not realize it, but your "vets" are a distinct minority within our ranks.

Sarah, you are correct in that "Low-life scum vandals" burned the flags and replaced them with swastikas. You are incorrect in that they are not part of the "peaceniks." They may be fringe, just as the ones who burned a soldier in effigy in March and the one who dropped trou and defecated on he burning flag, but the come out of your ranks.

I have yet to hear Edwards condemn this act that he put people up to. He can't say he doesn't know about it because I am one, amongst others, who sent it directly to him.

I doubt you really give a damn about the troops, other than how you can manipulate public awareness for your agenda.

Let me ask, do you also advocate withdrawing Police from high crime areas of cities? If not, why not? Aren't the lives of our Police just as precious as the Troops?

What you fail to realize is that our Troops volunteered, just as Police do, to stand between the bad guys and us. In your naiveté, you cannot fathom that we Veterans have willingly placed ourselves in harm's way over the years. All we ever asked for is the tools to do the job and a little support.

As the Troops themselves are asking and saying at Appeal For Courage, "As an American currently serving my nation in uniform, I respectfully urge my political leaders in Congress to fully support our mission in Iraq and halt any calls for retreat. I also respectfully urge my political leaders to actively oppose media efforts which embolden my enemy while demoralizing American support at home. The War in Iraq is a necessary and just effort to bring freedom to the Middle East and protect America from further attack."

As one who has experienced and felt the "support" you peaceniks mete out over the past 35 years, I can only say, "you are only fooling yourself."

BEAR said...

sarah, you blithering idiot! Have you ever seen a Democrat in a position of leadership (or other anti-American) condemn these attacks? Not holding my breath. Remember when clinton blamed the Oklahoma bombing on Rush Limbaugh? Wake-up, kid. Without the concurrence of the liberals, your protestations are empty, indeed!.....sheesh.

Lew Waters said...

Congratulations, Klatu, you've acheived "World" status. The rest of us are still just local yokels. LOL

The missons must have been grueling. Getting into all those McDonalds Resturaunts to liberate countless cheeseburgers a day? Damn man, I am glad we had him.

As for Black Water Five, they seem like a bunch of spazoids that got a load of bad reefer in the barracks and have never recovered.

With regard to "your vets" that you refer to as being a "distinct minority". So all that says is that there are a minority of intelligent thinkers in a sea of dimball crackers that are still willing to fall in line and die for a lie. What ever pleases you...I guess.

Lew Waters said...

Nice way to slander and denigrate Veterans, Abe. Of course, that is what we have come to expect from you lefty's.

Pay attention, Sarah, he is also from your camp.

Klatu, you really are a world class *******.



Klatu said: THANK YOU _ _ - _ _ _ _ _ _ _ -_. I'm glad I'm "Classy" at getting at your core being redistributionist, and any other "HUGO CHAVEZ", Carl Marx loving, Anti-Business, Military Hating, Billary Loving, Prositutes in the Public schools, ECO-Democrats out there.

sarah said...

Great job, 5th listeners club!! You guys are super-duper. It didn't take long to resort to personal attacks and raving paranoia.

Lew Waters said...

Sarah, you didn't answer about withdrawing the Police. Are we to believe you wish them to stay in high crime areas "to die?"

Klatu said...

Klatu said: The Truth hurts doesn't it Sarah. Now 51% of Oregonians and Americans need to figure it out "again" about you "CHAVEZ DEMOCRATS".

Kodiak said...

sarah,

Your assumption that peaceniks and democrats cannot be vandals and low-life scum is a pretty limited in thinking. What makes you think that peaceniks and democrats are saints incapable of bad behavior?

As for supporting the troops what is the purpose for having troops in the first place. Do you think the only value for them is to carry flags at events and parades? For college scholarships?

Why are we spending so much on the military in the first place.

Your statement that those who comment here want the troops to stay in Iraq and die is false. Those who comment here want the troops to win the fight and stabilize Iraq and then come home perferably alive!

Sarah you want the troops home from Iraq why not other countries as well like Japan, Germany, Italy, Great Britian, South Korea and anywhere else they may be.

Klatu said...

And Bosnia: I don't seem to remember any of Sarahs Comrades protesting Bill & BILLARYS Bosnia Bombing, or puting any Swastikas on THE TROOPS grave's back in 1998.
That War was alright, wasn't it SARAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Victoria Taft said...

Where did Sarah go?
Hey honest abe you can use potty talk that's why I got rid of your comment.

sarah said...

I'm still here... just readling. You guys crack me up! Hee!!

Klatu said...

Sarah: Yea the Conservative side has a sence of Humor Sarah, unlike the Communist Social Justice side that loves Hugo Chavez and what he's doing down there.

Ps We "Crack" you up AAAAAA Sarah?
So your into Crack are ya.
Were your Comrades that put the Swastikas on the troops graves on Crack??
Most of your Anti-War Comrades are on Crack!

All of your "COMRADES" that ran Schumachers out of Business are on Crack!

iknowhowtospell said...

Sorry about my language. Can I substitute "douchebag" instead?

Lew Waters said...

IKnow? Answering for Honest abe? Are you admitting to posting under more than one name?

iknowhowtospell said...

I'm me and only me.

I "apologized" for what I wrote (and believe me, it was *really* heartfelt - I was wracked with guilt all night for my mean, horrible words) because I called Klaturd a "world class a*shole" (which is apparently OK here as long as I blank out a letter or two, the way Klaturd does), and Victoria deleted it.

I assumed she meant me when she said "Honest Abe." Of course, Victoria's never been wrong about anything before, so who knows what to think ... If she removed one of his posts, too, then she's weeding out more than just me.

But I don't know who Honest Abe is, and I'm absolutely positive he's not me. And that's a guarantee.

Lew Waters said...

Still waiting for a response, Sarah. Surely you can answer a simple question?

Klatu said...

Yea Iknow: Victoria is always right, and you can throw all the curse words at me you want "CHAVEZ" lover, i've been up against worse. And Dis-Honest Abe is a Ralp Nader Loving Communist. Right down your ally Iknow.


Ps Lew: I think Sarah went down to
Venezuela to help the Pro-Chavez Communists. Maybe she'll have trouble getting back into the USA after we put the Fence up on the Southern Border.

Lew Waters said...

It doesn't surprise me that the left never answers that question.
