Ugly Fight in Berkeley - Cops Stand By While Patriots Assaulted

Today Berkely, California was the site of a massive protest by conservatives against that city for its persecution of the U.S. Marine Corps. The conservatives were met by angry Berkeley radicals intent on violence and destruction. The radicals included Code Pink.

There are some disturbing stories coming from the conservatives on the ground today in Berkeley, California. Leftist protestors, in full view of the Berkeley Police, stole American flags from conservative groups in the park and then burned the flags in full view of their owners. In one case, a Leftist attempted to cut the extension cord that powered the conservative sound system. In other incidents, conservatives were roughed up and assaulted; teenagers used their skate boards as clubs to whack women. The police did arrest some of these teenagers, but declined to intervene in all other outrages.

Right now the Berkeley City Council is meeting to reconsider its resolution that the U.S. Marines are "unwelcome intruders" in their cesspool of a city. Melanie Morgan and her group, Move America Forward, are there and intend to ask the City Council for an official apology to the U.S. Marines. Another MAF representative, Catherine Moy, has been in the thick of the confrontation and has made regular reports through Radio KSFO, 560 AM, in San Francisco. Ms. Moy has more backbone than exists in the entire wimp factory known as Berkeley, California.

Actions against this City of Treason includes action by South Carolina Senator Jim DeMint, who is trying to pass a law to stop all federal funds into that city and give them to the U.S. Marine Corps. That action alone will cost Berkeley around two million dollars.

A MAF member who flew in from Washington, DC, is trying to organize a boycott of Berkeley services and companies. Catherine Moy has vowed to request an investigation of the police non-action today and to determine whether her group's civil rights were violated.

Meanwhile, the awful little city in Northern California continues to gather the contempt and anger of millions of people worldwide.

The lovely Melanie Morgan (see picture, at right) linked to my post called "Code Pink Crushed In Berkeley." She linked to various blogs that covered the counter protest in Berkeley last Wednesday, and my post was one of the articles listed.

Thanks Melanie. I listen to you every morning on the way to work. It's great to know that KSFO radio (560 AM) exists in the belly of the beast, liberal San Francisco. Brian Sussman, Officer Vic and of course, the great Lee Rodgers, impart a welcome alternative to the constant leftist drumbeat of Bay Area media outlets.

I've never called into the show, but I'm out there, along with many thousands of other supporters. In fact, the show is listened to as far away as London, using the streaming internet connection at the KSFO website. Anyone can listen by connecting there.

God bless you guys and all you do for America. Someday I'd love to meet you all and shake your hands.

Code Pink Crushed In Berkeley

Move America Forward's counter demonstration against Code Pink on Wednesday, October 17, was a smashing success. View the pictures of the big confrontation here.

Local media reporters seemed downhearted that their "peace" allies were so outnumbered and outvoiced.

American flags were everywhere, along with signs and t shirts, to get the message out that Code Pink does not speak for the majority of Americans.

Ah Berkeley! Long a festering wound on the ass of America. Maybe it's time to cauterize it.

Melanie Morgan of Move America Forward writes:

The pro-troop movement took back the streets of Berkeley for our troops on
Wednesday! The pro-troop/pro-military demonstration was an incredible
success and you've got to see the pictures and read the reports to fully grasp
what an oustanding event took place.

The media was dumbfounded, they could not believe so many people turned out - we've had 3 sources give crowd estimates of just our pro-troop side ranging from 250 to 325 to 500. They also were stunned that we outnumbered Code Pink in countering THEIR rally in THEIR base, the heart of the anti-military movement, Berkeley, California.
