Patriots' Picnic

From Citizen Smash comes this call to support the troops and cut the legs out from under the dissembled "anti-war" movement.

FOR THE FIRST TIME in many months, we’ve learned of planned protests targeting military bases right here in San Diego. Our town will be the focus of a "regional mobilization" of the radical left. ...

The other major mobilization, just in case you were curious, will be in Fayetteville, North Carolina -- the home of Fort Bragg, and the world-renowned 82nd Airborne Division. ...

WHAT CAN YOU DO ABOUT IT?

We're asking everyone in San Diego to celebrate Independence Day a little bit early this year. On March 19, from 1 to 4pm, come to the west end of Balboa Park for a Patriots' Picnic, in the grassy area along Sixth Avenue, just south of Laurel Street.

Wear red, white, and blue. Pack a picnic for your family and friends. Bring a football, soccer ball, or frisbee (leave the baseball bats at home). Laugh, play, and have fun. Balboa Park is open for everyone -- nobody can prohibit you from using it peacefully.

Oh, and if you feel the urge, you might want to bring along an American flag, or maybe a homemade sign expressing your support for our troops.

We're promising a safe, fun, and peaceful event. We'll be working with the San Diego Police to ensure that the opposing groups are safely separated, and we'll have some of our own security in place, as well.

Don't let the seditionists take over our park, again.

Come on out and show your pride in America!

My in-laws live in San Diego. I'm going to check my schedule and see if I can attend. Wouldn't it be fun to outnumber the usual Left Cultbots?

- This is one time me and mini-me will be there if we possibly can. Have to start thinking about a sign....Something like "Make War on Jihadists - Not Fetus's".....or maybe.... "The only good Liberals are the ones that live in France".... or ..."Don't let the Oil-For-Food scandal hit you in the ass on the way out"...."The Village called...Your liberal is missing"... "I'd walk 5 miles to smoke a camel jockey"...."Wheres LurchKerry....I want to ask him about that form 180"...."I'm a hard nosed Red Stater, scumbag idiot American voter - Just ask the Ketchup slut"....."Marxism is dead....the Liberals didn't get the memo"..... This is fun.....

A very refreshing suggestion. Many of todays troops are suffering severe stress from the totally unpredictable circumstances in the combat areas. Tonight on 60 minutes they showed how the stress was affecting the troops and there were counselors going about helping the troops deal emotionally with it. Understanding what you feel is instrumental in helping to deal with it rationally.
The picnic will be an excellent visible support. It could certainly help some troops now home from combat or maybe some family of troops. Keep up the good work.
