Protesting Code Pink in Berkeley

I mentioned over the weekend that there was a revolt in the SF Bay Area brewing against the Code Pinkos who defaced a military recruiting center in Berkeley.

Melanie Morgan has set the date and issued a call to arms:

We will rally to support our troops and denounce efforts by Code Pink and others to ‘chase’ the military out of Northern California. We make our stand at the Marine Recruiting Center in Berkeley which has just been defaced by anti-war protestors.

Code Pink has a rally planned to denounce the miltiary on Wednesday, October 17th. We are calling on YOU the patriotic mainstream of this nation to join with us and counter their effort with a pro-troop show of support for our military men and women!

WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 17TH – 12:00 NOON PACIFIC
Marine Recruiting Center
Located at Shattuck Square (at the intersection of University Avenue and Shattuck)
Berkeley, California

From Move America Forward Chairman, Melanie Morgan:

Folks,

I have a favor to ask.

Code Pink has vandalized the Marine Recruiting Center in Berkeley, California and is harrassing the landlord to cancel the lease for the ‘illegal, immoral, unjust’ war machine–calling our guys ‘TRAITORS.’

Code Pink says it is going to demonstrate there until the Recruiting station is driven out of Berkeley.

I am furious about this insult to our troops, and I am organizing a counter protest for Wednesday, October 17th at high noon. I am planning to bring as many of our KSFO audience as possible, plus do a big Move America Forward push for a large crowd.

    I can’t be there but I sincerely hope that the good people of the bay area will decide they have had enough and turn out in big numbers to support Melanie Morgan’s efforts to show support for the troops … will hope that some of our commenters here from the bay area will be able to attend and post some pictures as well …

    I am betting they will get arrested unlike the pinko nazis that broke the law.

    I am with you in spirit! Support the troops!

    Hello Everyone!

    I am delighted by Melanie Morgan’s effort to organize a major counter protest of the Code SorosPinkees in Berkeley.

    As you might recall, last week I committed to being at the Recruiting Office in Berkeley on Wednesday October 10. I will be shooting pictures for several hours beginning around noon.

    I will be out of town the week of Oct 14 through Oct 21 so it won’t be possible to join the major counter protest on the 17th.

    Melanie Morgan is a great American. And I am proud to be one of her daily listeners on KSFO a.m for the Morning Show with Lee Rogers.

    They are no strangers to the “silence” talk radio people from the Left. I believe they will be re-targeted after bringing the Code Soros Pinkees into the light of treason.

    God Bless America. This is great news!

    Unfortunately, I live too far away to participate, but be assured I will be there with in spirit. Most of the readers of this blog support you and your counter-protest.

    Let me add my voice of support for this effort. Thank God for Melanie and others like her in the SF area.

    If I left tomorrow in my little Piper, with headwinds, I’d probably get to SF sometime around the 17th but unfortunately, time and funding preclude my departure.

    I will pray for a large turnout and a victory for our troops.

    God bless America.

    I will be on fall break until the 18th (willing to miss that class) and after checking the bus schedule I won’t be able to make it.

    Looking forward to the pics Bear. I am betting on American flags flying high if Melanie has anything to do with it (unlike those stinko protests).

    I’ll ask my brother in Sacramento if he can make it to take my place. I won’t be able to take leave until the 19th of October. I would really like to be there.

    Since we are so far away and can’t be there in person for the protest is there any thing else we can do to let Capt. Lund and his office know that we support them?

    Looks like I will be the only one of us to go. I will be doing everything I can ot make it there. If anyone knows the actual address to the recruiting office (numbers and street) please post it up so I can put it in my GPS.

    If there is anyone else from the Sacto/Woodland/Davis/West Sac/Foothills area that is going and want to caravan (meeting, of course for coffee) let me know.

    Here’s wishing everyone success. (Shameless plug alert!) If anyone is interested, I wrote a column long ago that I consider to be timeless. It’s called, “Yellow Magnets Aren’t Enough.” Worth the read before facing the Pinksters. Enjoy! Feedback welcome.

    As much as I would love to come up to Berserkeley, my job won’t permit it – I’m almost out of vacation, and my boss is out of town. I will be there in spirit, though, and my AMERICAN Flag will be waving proudly in front of my house – displayed correctly!!!

    I would suggest a post card, or an appropriate picture post card to:

    USMC Recruiting Center
    64 Shattuck Square
    Berkeley, CA 94704

    I would avoid anything enveloped because
    1) it’s just more to open
    2) no one has to worry about what else might be inside
    3) picture post cards are fun to get and easy to tack up for all to see.
