We made the Channel 4 News, and the Dispatch. We got threatened and cursed at by a group of peace activists. We made our point pretty well, and they knew we were from CTH. Calling WTVN really seemed to get the message out.


From the Dispatch

The counter-protesters numbered fewer. Four or five came to heckle the peace rally, with tongue-in-cheek accusations that the marchers were "against freedom and democracy in the Middle East" and "supporters of al-Qaida."

The men said they have conservative leanings.

This is the bully at close range. He comes charging up to me saying that "you can't take pictures here." I look at him and said, "look around, everyone is taking pictures." He says "yea, but you are a counter protestor and are not allowed." I then held the camera up and took the picture of his face, well, at least his left ear, and asked, "who are you, the Gestapo? Three girls started to laugh, and he ran. I then told the girls that "I was just threatened by a PEACE activist." I then told the girls that I was aginst Bush because he was spreading peace, freedom, and Democracy throughout the MiddleEast, and that because of Bush we were no longer allowed to beat our women in public. The girls looked real confused and said, "were confused, we thought you were for Bush."

Picture below in the left ear of the threatening bully peace activist. Typical of the totalitarian left. Squash dissenting views, promote group think, and silence opposition with threats. All this guy needed was an AK-47 or a suicided bomber jacket and he would have been all set.

Another event that didn't get broadcast was Osama got interviewed by Channel 6. When asked for a name the protestor responded "Osama Bin Laden" the reporter looked real odd, and asked why you are here. Osama said that we need to stop President Bush because he is spreading Peace, Freedom, and Democracy throughtout the Middle-East. A protestor then reached through and pulled down Osam's mask. Osama just went on and said "for instance, in Afganistan we are no longer able to beat our women in public." The reporter's eyes light up, and had a really confused look in her eye. At that moment a peace nick ran up yelling about how they could possibly interview Osama, and that he was distracting from their message. The guy had a tempertantrum, and acted like he needed to change his diaper.

It went really well considering that "the antis" had no idea how to deal with us. Naturally we managed to draw the violent side of them out in rather easily.

There was a "anti-war protester" by the name of David Jenkins who is a Army veteran, who made the point to AdamSmith and myself that he had bail money because he loved to fight.

Then we had another unamed individual who was enraged because the local media was not immersing themselves in to the crowd to interview them all. He then proceeded to advise the female reporter that the "violent protest warriors" had arrived to attack their demonstration. When I questioned this individual about the activities of "the protest warriors" he immediately fled the scene.

Yes of course the "real communists" made there presence known till a video camera was in their presence, then they would disappear as fast as they had arrived. Of the people at the statehouse yesterday 99% of them were out of towners, I would guess that the local protesters numbered less than 20 who refused to engage us, their defense was to run the opposite direction.

Prior to the start of the Columbus Protest I was in on scene communication with the Cincy people from Fountain Square. The stage was ringed with red shirted individuals as an obvious security measure, from what I was told there is a local militant faction who made their presence known with military fatigues complete with unit patches.

I am waiting to get video clips from yesterday put together and for the still images from Cincy to arrive. Mr. Chairman I need for you to contact me as soon as possible if you would please?
