Update: After the march to the Israeli Consulate, these supporters of Israel countered and interacted admirably with some of those who opposed Israel’s existence.
Part 3 - When these Jewish girls arrived at the Israeli Consulate, they were told they had to stand on the South/West corner of 42nd st and 2nd Ave (putting some distance between them and the anti-Israel faction )
But, the anarchists can’t stand the slight of the Israeli flag! So their young men and young women came out to “engage” these stalwart defenders of Israel .
Their interviewers came over with cameras and recorders:
And there was the ‘Peacenik’ …. “Grannies for Peace”-type….
She came (walker in tow) to the S/W corner…
… just to lecture the Jewish girls about Mengele and Hiroshima…
But she couldn’t respond when pressed to discuss the anti-Israel lies presented by these children. (seems she has no problem with these LIES)
The police seemed hesitant when it came to herding the anarchists back to their pen. These girls were waiting (a long time) for their bus so, of course, they managed to harass the girls with chants of “Free Free Palestine” etc….
It was always a slow “would-you-please’ go back. Not what our side is used to. (We’re told to move and we hop.)
But, what matters more is these young women were great!
They quietly sang while they held their flags up with confidence.
Whether 4 0r 400 …. We make a difference. Am Yisrael Chai !

The other reports from the Times Square Rally and March ( with pictures):
Update-Part 2- video as anarchists march to Israeli Consulate:
Part 2 “…the First Anniversary of the Israeli-U.S. Massacre, the People of Gaza Need Your Solidarity” was December 27, 2009 (at 1 PM)
The International Action Center kicked-off another of their hate-Israel and anti-American protests in Times Square and then marched to the Israeli Consulate (which they choose to call the Israeli “Mission”).
The group of Leftists marched from Times Square to the Israeli Consulate via 6th avenue (not 42nd st as they have done in the past)
And then East on 48th street (passing Rockefeller Center)
They wrote in their flyers how they would “march through the crowded holiday streets to the Israeli “mission”.”
And also, “We will say the blockade must end, the flow of U.S. arms and dollars to Israel must stop and Israeli generals and politicians must be prosecuted for war crimes.
Always an education to watch how the police baby-sit them (well co-ordinated…the police do a stand-up job of crowd and traffic-control)
Our tax dollars at work….protecting the First Amendment rights of anarchists who hate America. And they never fail to to manipulate the situation so they can ‘break the rules’ laid out by the police…
They also like to walk very,VERY slowly… and SLOWLY respond to the police when told to pick up their pace….
They take the protest on to the sidewalk (not staying in the street as required) because they intend to engage the public walking by….
They arrived (finally) at the Israeli Consulate…
The anarchists, of course, took their flags and flyers to the Israeli side of the street…the S/W corner (even though they are expected to stay in front of the consulate)
When these Jewish girls arrived, they were told they had to stand on the South/West corner of 42nd st and 2nd Ave. (yet the police hesitated to herd the Leftists back to their pen!)
You see, the anarchists can’t stand the slight of the Israeli flag! So they would send cameras, young men and young women over to “engage” these stalwart defenders of Israel . They even sent one of their elderly (“Grannies for Peace”) who came over (walker in tow) to the S/W corner just to lecture the Jewish girls about Mengele and about Hiroshima but couldn’t respond when pressed to discuss the anti-Israel lies presented by these Leftists. (Seems she has no problem with these LIES below)
The slide show of Part 2 (you can also click thru to Flickr)
The groups advertised as participants against Israel were the International Action Center which was to be joined by Al-Awda NY the Palestine Right to Return Coalition, the Arab Muslim American Federation, the MAS Freedom Foundation, American Muslims for Palestine, Jewish Anti-Zionist Network, Malcolm X Grassroots Movement, Dec. 12 Movement, New York City Labor Against the War and many others.
Part 1- “…the First Anniversary of the Israeli-U.S. Massacre, the People of Gaza Need Your Solidarity” was December 27, 2009 (at 1 PM) when the International Action Center kicked-off another of their hate-Israel and anti-American protests in Times Square.
“Joyfully” assaulting the Christmas tourists and others getting ready to greet the New Year by LOUDLY blasting their anti-Israel screeds all over 42nd Street.
They advertised that the International Action Center was joined by Al-Awda NY the Palestine Right to Return Coalition, the Arab Muslim American Federation, the MAS Freedom Foundation, American Muslims for Palestine, Jewish Anti-Zionist Network, Malcolm X Grassroots Movement, Dec. 12 Movement, New York City Labor Against the War and many others.
Nothing new. No new faces even , although it was interesting to observe Obama and Company take the heat (BDS has turned in to ODS)
The slideshow for Part 1 (or just click through to flickr)
There were stalwart supporters of Israel at Times Square and also at the Israeli Consulate. (apparently this was a fast day which was why so many others weren’t able to join the counter-rally.)
The whole group then marched from Times Square to the Israeli Consulate via 6th avenue and then East on 48th street(passing Radio City Music Hall) Part of their plan, apparently, was to assault as many tourists as they could by turning off 42nd street(which was a more direct path to the consulate). They wrote how they would “march through the crowded holiday streets to the Israeli “mission”.” And also, “We will say the blockade must end, the flow of U.S. arms and dollars to Israel must stop and Israeli generals and politicians must be prosecuted for war crimes. (Have no idea if this next item happened: “George Galloway is expected to address the Times Square rally by telephone.”)
More rallies will take place in Chicago where the US Palestine Community Network, the Palestine Solidarity Group, Code Pink and others are organizing a Chicago Stands with Gaza rally on Monday, Dec. 30 at 5:30 pm at Grace Place, 637 S. Dearborn Avenue. Get out and counter them if you are in the area!!
[from a former USMC, a re-post of his thoughts written on Feb 3, 2009 ]
At 0712 (December 24, 2009) they got their 51 votes:
This health care bill is the icing on the socialist cake, only they will only make you pay for it and you wont get to eat it.I wrote this opinion below in February of 2009. Add in to your thoughts when you read it, and remember that today, at 0712 E.S.T., our Nation became Socialist when they had their 51st vote for Health Care. May God Have Mercy on America
Points to ponder about our new President; somber reading.
As Marines, we did NOT swear an oath to the President in the first sentence, we swore it to the Constitution.Our founding fathers made clear distinctions between the 3 powers of government: Executive, Legislative, Judicial.
While the President leads, he has the Congress to enact laws and the Court to make sure the law is upheld. For ANY of those three to go AGAINST the Constitution, that is treason itself.
Bush’s enactment of the Patriot Act was to save our country, while Clinton’s spying on her domestic enemies by acquiring over 1800 FBI files on private American citizens was treasonous, illegal, and laughed away as a silly mistake, just like Democrats not paying taxes and becoming Treasury Secretary. TO be so bold and blatant against the laws of the country, and to have a political party defend these criminalities is treason in itself.
Our founding fathers gave us the SECOND AMENDMENT for just that reason, that if our government ever became so tyrannical, we the people would have the power to overthrow it if need be, by force, by arms, with guns.
The greatest problem here is the absolute hypocrisy of Democrats when it comes to politicians upholding the law. Example: Scooter Libby did NOT reveal Valerie Plame’s name to the media, Democrat Richard Armitage did and the special counsel knew that on the 3rd day of the trial from Robert Novak, yet the Special Counsel pushed and pushed until he found Libby make a mis-statement so he could hang someone in the Bush administration for something.
That is a complete political abuse of power. When we compare the crimes of the Clinton administration against Bush, Bush is a boy scout, yet Bush never prosecuted Clinton for sending missile technology to China in exchange for campaign donations, never prosecuted Clinton for allowing Iran to arm the KLA in Serbia against UN resolutions while the rest of the world was stunned, never prosecuted Clinton for allowing the war against Serbia in the first place since it was the Serbs fighting against MUSLIMS who were slaughtering Serbs that started the whole thing over there.
And not just nuclear secrets, too, but according to the article cited: “Not only did they try their best to give the Soviets top atomic secrets from the Manhattan Project, they succeeded in handing over top military data on sonar and on radar that was used by the Russians to shoot down American planes in the Korean and Vietnam wars.”
Books have been written about the democrats complicity with Soviet policies and plans by men such as John Stormer,
Obama plainly stated that he will allow a company to build a coal plant, but that he intends to cause them such absurd costs to keep it environmentally friendly that it will intentionally bankrupt the company trying to build it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hdi4onAQBWQ
That is what every secret police force ever started like in all dictatorships, such as: NICARAGUA Ortega’s “Councils of Citizen Power”; CUBA Fidel’s “Committees For Defense of the Revolution”; PANAMA Noriega’s “Dignity Battalions”; VENEZUELA Chavez’s “Popular Defense Units”; HAITI Papa Doc’s National Security Volunteers, commonly called the Tonton Macoutes; CHINA Mao’s Red Guards; IRAN Ayatollah’s Army of the Guardians of the Islamic Revolution; Soviet Komsomol or “Communist Union of Youth”: http://www.americanthinker.com/2008/11/obama_fear_and_the_security_fo.html
Recent documents and proclamations of his own President-Elect status show his agenda is similar to Soviet/Nazi history in their control and organization of the youth and the population.
“Of all other tasks, some of the outstanding ones are outlined. The widest degree of activity of the youth in the class struggles of the day is imperative, it goes without saying. Nevertheless, it would be a decidedly short-sighted and opportunistic approach if the communist youth movement allowed itself to be involved, under pressure or pretexts of all sorts, in all kinds of routine activity, and to be made into a wagging or running tail of other bodies, political, trade union, etc. in order to achieve a name for ”activities”. There are some, perhaps, who believe that this very routine work, doing some of the distasteful work for the adult comrades, is the task of the youth.
But it is in the communist youth organization that the youth (young worker or student) must make their major opportunity to learn thoroughly the fundamental principles and theory of the communist movement, its history, etc. in order really to be prepared for intelligent participation and leadership, at a later period, in the adult organization, the Party. It has to be said plainly that in the adult organization, the opportunities are often too limited for serious and necessary study by the ranks. Lack of time and the need to carry through numberless concrete tasks after working hours are the main reasons therefore. The adult members have to place a great reliance, perhaps too much, on experience and the theoretical back-ground can or should to a large degree be obtained by the youth in the years they are apart of the communist youth organization. This knowledge, coupled with their activities otherwise, will serve as a strong safeguard against opportunism and adventurism. In the above sense, the slogan of Clarity and Action sums up the attitude of the communist youth. While stressing education and class struggle activity, a youth movement, communist or otherwise, cannot live by these alone, especially so if the communist youth organization is to attract the wider strata of the youth to its own banner or around its bona-fide sympathetic auxiliary bodies. Social, sport, and cultural activities need to be systematically developed. The youth movement needs to build its dramatic and musical groups and like mediums which attract the youth. It can be done; who says otherwise needlessly narrows the possibilities for rallying youth elements to the communist cause through diverse methods. Particularly must the communist youth foster a broad workers’ sport movement of which it must be a guiding participant. The insidious and malevolent influence of the bourgeois sport movements, both professional and amateur is immense, and systematic efforts are required to counter-act this influence on the mass of American youth. A general social and cultural life, in addition to the basic tasks outlined before, will tend to attract young workers and students around us. If the new forces are approached sympathetically, made to realize our genuineness, they will either join the communist youth organization, or at least remain sympathetic, even if not ready to accept the entire outlook of communism. Numerous other tasks for the youth can be posed, but space forbids.”
When visiting troops overseas, Obama refused to meet with wounded troops in Germany and also Afghanistan, something NO responsible politician would ever do, even if he was just pandering for votes, they would have visited the wounded troops: http://www.spiegel.de/international/germany/0,1518,567821,00.html
Percy Sutton (Malcolm X’s Lawyer) says Barack Obama knows and was financed by the racist, radical Muslim and Saudi advisor, Dr. Khalid Al-Mansour: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MIVO8MZYXo8
We are dealing with someone (Obama)who wants to take over our present system of economics, our present system of civil rights, and even change our Constitution as he plainly said when he said it was a flawed document.
~~
(Obama’s Christmas Tree Ornaments 2009 are certainly consistent with the man and his goals)
In conclusion, we are dealing with a man whose associations include but are not limited to the following:
1.) Kenyan opposition candidates whose followers murdered hundreds when he lost and burned down over 100 churches and zero Mosques.
2.) Domestic terrorists who murdered up to 6 Americans in bombings, robberies, shootings and other murders to include Police Officers and the bombing of civilian houses own and occupied by a Lawyer and family who thankfully escaped death that night.
3.) Proven 20 years of association with a racist theologian and the associations that go along with that man and theologian; the standard blame white America first sentiment, regardless of how true it was 150 years ago, the changes made in our own lifetime are disregarded and only demand more.
4.) His own family’s statements of what his supposed moral foundation is and how his own statements declare that he will side with a religion that is historically known to kill their opponents first and refuse to negotiate until their opponents are subdued and begging for mercy.
5.) His campaign received millions of dollars that are untraceable to the original donors, and of the millions that are traceable that came from overseas, a FEDERAL CRIME, and how his campaign removed the Credit Card checking of names and account numbers to verify the credit cards were valid
6.) His association with known supporters of Islamic Terrorism, of groups known as Hamas and Hizbullah.
7.) Of his party’s refusal to demand he release his personal records for examination by the American people so as to know the candidate better, while they themselves have a history to demand documents from 40 years ago that pertained to President Bush. His party’s refusal to demand the Military records of John Kerry and the College records of Barak Obama are a part of his political party’s hypocrisy.
8.) The re-introduction of THE FAIRNESS DOCTRINE, a form of censorship written by the Democrats to silence the effects of Talk Radio. NOT ONCE has the Democrat Party ever referred to the massive ideological outnumbering of Liberals to Conservatives in the mainstream media, and only refer to ‘fairness’ when considering Talk Radio and the Internet. As anyone knows, who has been paying attention, this can only mean Conservative Talk Radio and open Internet communication. Knowing that Obama associate Bill Ayers freely referred to Saul Alinsky, and knowing that the writings of Saul Alinsky openly promote Communism and radical overthrow, who dedicated his book RULES FOR RADICALS to SATAN only confirms what I call the criminality of this administration.
We all took a vow to protect and defend the Constitution of The United States of America against ALL Enemies, Foreign and Domestic. Will Obama be a Patriot after all or an Enemy of the Constitution is a sad question that the informed can only be saddened to think what the answer (will be).
So, just what is treason then? Overthrowing our entire economic system to one that is proven to have failed worldwide is Treason? Or Americanism?
Submitting to and apologizing to Islamic terrorists who have repeatedly threatened to KILL US, ME AND YOU if we don’t become Muslim?
Is that Treason? or Americanism?
Taking ALL YOUR MONEY in the bank to be kept by the government to use as the government sees fit.
Is that Treason or Americanism?
This health care bill is the icing on the socialist cake, only they will only make you pay for it and you wont get to eat it. I wrote this opinion in February of 2009… when you read it, remember that today, at 0712 E.S.T., our Nation became Socialist when they had their 51st vote for Health Care.

If you will not fight for right when you can easily win without blood shed; if you will not fight when your victory is sure and not too costly; you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a precarious chance of survival. There may even be a worse case. You may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves. WINSTON CHURCHILL

Out Future is at the ready…. AMERICA IS RISING UP to say NO MORE:DC here we come:
Greetings fellow riders, South Floridians, and indeed America, time for another monthly installment of our Wheels on the Road (WOTR) political assessment.
By the time this edition goes to print we shall be in the New Year, 2010, one decade down into the 21st century. What amazes me are the challenges which face our Republic and its future.
We are embroiled in a new style of conflict whose nuances are confounding but yet the solutions are clear, if we only recognized the threats as they present themselves. There are two critical social phenomena, which if not checked, will result in the destruction of our Country; political correctness and multiculturalism. These two factors preclude us, as a Country, and indeed western civilization from saying what needs to be said.
This 21st century battlefield combines economic, informational, and military aspects which together has brought America to a critical point in its existence.
Our government fails to recognize that strengthening our economy is a part of our National power. We currently live under a governmentwhich fails to recognize that the indomitable entrepreneurial spirit of its citizens will unlock our economic growth. We have seen over the past 10 years an unprecedented growth of government, debt, and the deficit. We now find ourselves having our debt owned by a communist Country, China. I do not assess that the Chinese will do anything to collapse the US economy, but they will leverage this for their own foreign policy gains. But what is more disturbing is that our government continues on a path of astronomical spending by way of printing more money (hyperinflation to follow), raising taxes (meaning that Americans cannot invest nor innovate), and as stated, borrowing more money (selling our Country).
This is being done under the auspices of creating more unnecessary government social programs in order to increase a societal dependency….enslavement instead of empowerment. If we do not transfer our national wealth from Washington DC back to Americans, not Wall Street, we will continue on the road to perdition.
What we do not realize as well is that part of this 21st century battlefield is energy resourcing. Russia and China are embarking upon a global dominance of energy resources while we sit in America, “stuck on stupid” talking about green jobs…….and creating insidious legislation like Cap and Trade. If we would seek to develop our full spectrum of energy resources in America, producing, consuming, and even exporting these resources, consider the economic boom in job creation. Not just that, we then cut off the greatest revenue source of our adversaries, the despots and autocrats who run OPEC.
Couple with this we MUST leverage our information technology to defeat the ideology of radical islamic infiltration into our society. This past summer Libyan madman Mohammar Khadafy stated that “Islam will conquer the West without firing a shot”. We are so in the dark about this threat that it is appalling, and where political correctness and multiculturalism have really struck home. We are not telling our story and after visiting Israel and peering over into the Gaza strip there is no place where this is more true. We are allowing revisionists to rewrite history unfavorably and indeed untruthfully. We have media outlets which do not profess the truth but have become partisan cheerleaders, all to the detriment of their own existence.
A great example of media blindness is the incredible threat which illegal immigration presents to America, yet it is not a topic of serious investigative discussion. This one issue affects our national security, economy, healthcare, education, and culture. However, what we just saw last week was a liberal Congressman Luis Gutierrez (D-Ill) introduce legislation to grant citizenship to some 12-15 million illegals.
Will our economy survive? Will we remain secure? Why are news outlets not reporting and asking the hard questions about such a dangerous piece of legislation? Why are we allowing special interest groups like La Raza to dominate the messaging?
Lastly, we all know about the military actions in which we are engaged. Somewhere along the way we lost focus on what our military does better than anyone, strategic maneuverability. We have become mired down in nation-building and not in taking the fight to the enemy. We have tied the hands of our Men and Women in combat with restrictive rules of engagement which denies them the critical aspect of combat operations, initiative.
We have yet to clearly identify the enemy, trust me the answer is not Taliban and Al Qaeda, that is far too simplistic. We have a theocratic islamic regime that is pursuing nuclear technology, and soon the deadline of “negotiations” will cease. And do not tell me that open dialogue will solve the problems of Islamic totalitarianism and state sponsored terrorism.
I have only scratched the surface on the challenges that face our Country, hence why 2010 is a decisive year.
The upcoming mid-term elections may be the last chance we have as a Country to recognize the situation in which we find ourselves, and resolve it. But let us take a look at what will happen.
There are many on the GOP side who believe that 2010 will be a repeat of 1994. Honestly, I do not see that happening first because Americans are just as angry at the GOP as the Dems. From 1994 to 2006 the GOP violated their own Contract with America and became a lesser version of the liberals, big spending and corruption. They themselves have a long way to go in regaining the trust and confidence of the people. Secondly, there is no definitive GOP leader ala Newt Gingrich from 1994 who masterminded recruiting and promoting of an incredible freshman class.
The GOP has to win back 40 seats in order to remove the gavel from the hands of Nancy Pelosi, without a definitive leader and a common conservative message……well, that may not happen. There will be victories, but not a landslide.
What will the liberals do? What they do best, cheat and lie. Congressman Gutierrez’s amnesty legislation is just an attempt to alter the electoral base of America. Recall that the Obama administration moved the 2010 census from the Commerce Dept and into the White House under the supervision of Rahm Emmanuel…wonder why? Once amnesty is passed, then ACORN/SEIU/New Black Panther Party kicks in to register them as new voters. If the liberals are to be defeated it cannot be close, then the cheating comes out…can you say Al Franken?
Oh yea, the liberals will once again trounce out their favorite Saul Alinsky type target, George W Bush, claiming that GOP candidates will just bring back Bush years. The preferred method of liberals is vile ridicule and while that works on some, they need beware that some of us plan to fight back. Their intimidation tactics are well known now and the antidote to their venom is being distributed. I took my shot already.
The bottom line is this, there is a revolution brewing in America. This TEA Party movement is for real, regardless of the ridicule of the left and the disenfranchisement from the GOP. Americans are tired of the “Intellectual Elite Politburo” which seeks to dominate and control our Republic while disregarding our rule of law, the US Constitution. It comes down to principle, not party, and the world is watching, our enemies are watching.
We allowed the liberals their chance and what they gave us was worse than before. My advice to them, especially my opponent Ron Klein, step aside or else you will end up with tire marks all over your back. My advice to the GOP, embrace conservative principles and values, evidence a contrast, and show some leadership.
It’s SNOWTIME! Not even a winter blizzard can keep us away. This was one of the best rallies of the year. The snow was lovely, white flakes were everwhere, swirling all around us. A highlight was when both sides got together, shook hands and wished each other ”Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays”. It was a nice moment. We walked over to the Nativity and were joined by Chris from the CCPM, we sang “Silent Night” – dedicated to our troops who can’t plan parties or shop for presents, we pray they have a silent and peaceful night during this holy season.

LT. COL. ALLEN WEST WAS A GUEST ON FOX NEWS’ HANNITY SHOW, TUESDAY, DECEMBER 15TH, 2009.
THIS IS A MUST WATCH – A NATIONAL FORUM FOR COL. WEST TO SHOW THE COUNTRY JUST WHAT KIND OF A LEADER HE WILL BE WHEN HE TAKES HIS SEAT AS THE CONGRESSMAN FROM OUR DISTRICT 22 IN FLORIDA.
PLEASE PASS THIS ON TO YOUR FRIENDS NO MATTER WHAT STATES THEY ARE IN. THE FUTURE LEADER OF THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES WILL EARN THEIR RESPECT AND SUPPORT AS HE SPEAKS TO THE PEOPLE.
This statement is from the American Copts at http://freecopts.net/english/ who organized simultaneous rallies in several States to “express their resentment and rejection to what is taking place to their brethren in Egypt, including killings, destruction and looting of their property, displacement from their homes and the forced Islamization of their minor daughters.”
One of the organizers spoke to me about how the Islamist bring hundreds of their young Muslim males to our colleges with the intention of having them romance and marry American women. Hello? America! We need to pay attention to these valiant people, the Copts. We can no longer remain ignorant of the horrors Islam and Egypt have inflicted upon the Coptic Christians; this is Europe today and America tomorrow (if we let it happen).
Their statement continues with, “Copts expressed their rejection of the collusion of the Egyptian State Security and other security authorities in all crimes taking place against the Copts in Egypt.”
Their plan was to start at the Egyptian Mission to the United Nations at 304 East 44th Street in NY and to then march towards the United Nations, ending at 4.00 pm. The reverse happened for some reason. First the police placed the Copts at a location behind construction at the UN. Why?
It was an odd location…not the usual location for these rallies. I arrived about 1:45 looking for a rally that was supposed to last from Noon to 4 PM . However, the rally was now marching to the Egyptian Mission (leaving the obstructed location at the UN) and because the police shut them down early, at 2 PM, I never got video of their robust and heart-felt chants of “Free Christian Egypt. Free Christian Egypt.” .
The police said the sound permit at the mission stopped at 2 PM and even though the Copts had a permit til 4 at the UN they would not be permitted to return to that less than desirable location. WHY?
That’s NOT how things go down for the Leftists. The Leftists march wherever and whenever they want. They demand freedom of assembly rights but NO such freedoms were extended to the Copts.
The Copts need our help (where were the other groups that knew about this rally. It’s shameful they were not there to give support to the Copts) And the police hid them and shut them down early . It’s an OUTRAGE!
Eric Holder, our Attorney General, went to Long Island on Sunday, December 13, to speak at what was called a public meeting being held at the Memorial Presbyterian Church located at 189 Babylon Turnpike, Roosevelt, NY. It was actually a church service and Holder didn’t speak until the end.
Introduced by his brother, William, (who is a member of this church)
and with his 84 years old mother, Miriam, in attendance,
This was a morning dedicated to the youth of this congregation. That’s fine, it is the Christmas Advent Season, after all. So, inside the church politics was not on the menu, but outside there were about 40 -50 citizens who demanded that Holder stop the outrage of Terror Trials in New York City. The security that accompanied Holder denied this photographer and others as well the right to stand on a public sidewalk to take photographs.
They boldly stated they were taking away our First Amendments rights for the day and threatened to take cameras and make arrests if we did not cease taking pictures of the protesters…..
Hmmm….Guess that’s Eric Holder’s America for ya…. The future? Considering this church community is committed to their youth, to the future, it was disturbing to witness such faithful, “no-questions-asked” admiration for Holder based on race…not on deeds.
BTW- Since we couldn’t operate the cameras easily inside the church, this is as close as we could get: A short video of pictures with music!
