Hey-Hey, Ho-Ho, You Hippies Have To Go!
Saturday March 19th the San Diego chapter of Protest Warrior was out at Balboa Park to counter an anti-war rally and march planned for the 'international day of protest'. We came out with sign of support for our troops, democracy, and freedom. We were even joined by other groups and passers Byers in support. Around 2pm we lined up on 6th Ave. to get ready for the anti-war marchers coming up the street, and as we were waiting for them we heard honks and yells for what we were doing. In fact a Marine came up to one of us to thank us for what we were doing. He was walking his dog and passed by the anti-war people and tried to tell them about his time in Iraq. He told them about all the good we are doing over there, and even mention Saddam's mass graves that he witnessed. But they didn't even care; they didn't want to hear the truth. As the marchers came up we started chanting USA, USA, USA! It was a great moment; we showed the hippies that they are not the voice of America or the world.
The whole time I was thinking, how can you live in a country where you oppose the thing that gave birth to its existence? This nation was won with war, it was defended with war; and if you are morally against all wars, then how can you morally stay in this country. I don't like war, I don't want it, but sometimes war is necessary. War was necessary to win our independence, war was necessary to stop slavery, war was necessary to defeat Hitler, war was necessary to defeat Imperial Japan, war was necessary to stop Fascism, and war was necessary to stop Saddam and his evil doings. War is ugly and sad, but it's unavoidable. If we took the path as anti-war people, say no to all war, we would be dead! I am not a war-junkie, its not that I think war is cool, but I think that it's a necessity to survival and you have to support that survival and those doing it. Our nation knew that Saddam was a threat to his neighbors and us so we gave him ten years to comply with U.N. sanctions. He didn't so we had to go to war to stop him. It is appalling to see these people protesting the Iraqi people's freedom, don't they understand?
Anyways it was a lot of fun; some guys on our side event went over there to stir thing up. One guy dressed up in a prison uniform and had a Saddam mask on which was funny. Thanks to all that came to support, there were many new faces that I would like to welcome. All in all it was a success, we got our message out, showed what true patriotism looks like, and had fun while doing it. Maybe next year we can have more people on our side and less on theirs.

"Our nation knew that Saddam was a threat to his neighbors and us"
so how exactly was iraq a threat to the u.s. you poor misguided fool

Read the 1998 indictment of Osama bin Laden. You will find that he and Saddam worked together on weapons training. The 911 Commission reported this fact.
Response?
Thank You! Thank You! Thank You! It is so incredibly refreshing to see someone take a stand in favor of our country instead of against it!!
I am proud to be an American. I voted for Bush TWICE! I am proud to live in a country that refuses to stand by and allow innocent people to be demoralized, raped, pillaged and murdered. My husband is deployed to Iraq and I support his efforts and the efforts of my country that sent him there. Go RED WHITE AND BLUE!!
If you don't like this country, move to another one and live for six months so you can appreciate the sacrifices made by those who provide you with the freedoms you enjoy every day of your miserable whiny ass life!
