Thanks to Beaready for the link, couldn't paste the picture to go with it, www.veteransforpeace.org. They have balls, can you spare them a few dollars? You say you want to get stuff done, right? Well if you ain't willing to climb 9 foot walls for freedom, you better think about donating to people who are!

Archive Action

On Saturday, November 15, at 8:00 am, at the National Archives Building on Connecticut Ave., eight military veterans and a military mother climbed a 9-foot retaining fence and occupied a ninety-foot high scaffolding to raise two 450 square foot banners stating, "DEFEND OUR CONSTITUTION. ARREST BUSH AND CHENEY: WAR CRIMINALS!" and "WE WILL NOT BE SILENT." The same message will also be displayed at demonstrations in the Los Angeles area on Saturday.

Members of Veterans for Peace (VFP) chose the Archives for their nonviolent protest because it is symbolic of their military oath to "defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic." In September they occupied the Archives for 24 hours, and plan to stay longer this time.

Elliott Adams VFP: 61, Sharon Springs, NY, VFP President and former Army

Bump

Repost this often to gain funds and momentum. Fantastic job veteran patriots. Salu-u-u-te.

I also like the idea of a legal fund, with a patriot lawyer, ..I would expect finding a patriot lawyer, (who won' t over charge), will be a much more difficult task. Just going by experience. :(

Good

Evening. I am gonna send these veterans every available penny I have. They have strategy, determination, and balls. What else could we ask for?

AWESOME

The showing that we have had this year for the Vets has been outstanding.

Also check out the IAVA Gala-http://iavaheroesgala.org/

waiting on the edge of one I can't escape
is even worse"

"I have found that being rich is not about having the most but about needing the least"

If we cannot get behind these men and women, OUR Veterans-

I can only assume that we are doomed. Good luck "patriots", looks like all we can rely on now is luck- considering the response this thread has gotten.

"I think we are living in a world of lies: lies that don't even know they are lies, because they are the children and grandchildren of lies." ~ Chris Floyd

Brave men and women who need us to stand beside them!

I would like to clarify a fine point, though. These are Vets, not active "troops."
I know many Vets in the battle to save our Constitution, and hope their active duty counterparts are hearing them.

Truth exists, and it deserves to be cherished.

Yes, they are Vets but they are OUR troops now!!!

Has anyone here breached any federal buildings lately? Anyone here been trampled by a horse in peaceful protest? I haven't....(not yet!)

Well, these guys are OUR REVOLUTION TROOPS and they continue to put themselves on the front line!

We need to support them in donations and since most of the media ignore the stories WE need to be the media and get these actions covered! Lets show them they ARE appreciated..lets show them they ARE being heard!!

bump for soldiers who remember their oath

You are my heroes.

Truth exists, and it deserves to be cherished.

That one teared me up

I started the "Do you support the troops" post this morning. Thank you so much for putting a few more names on that list. I know they are there, I have the honor to know a few, but so many of them are willfully ignorant of their TRUE duty now...
Bless these brave soldiers!

Truth exists, and it deserves to be cherished.

These guys have stones for sure

You are right, we need to support this big time!

This seargent is about to be court marshalled in January in

Liberty Belle's link below, and still yet some want to do nothing. What a shame. Where is the Revolution at, can someone tell me please? I think I may be in the wrong place.

These guys are not "keyboard patriots" they are out there again and again putting themselves on the line for the oath they swore to protect our country from ALL enemies foreign and domestic!!

Lead, Follow, or Get Out of the Way!! We have serious work to do and these brave Soldiers of the Republic are setting fine examples of Non Violent Civil Disobedience!!!
