| Sick Moonbats To Hold '2000 Deaths' Parties Across The US |
| 2005-10-24 |
| (via LGF) The American Friends Service Committee is planning to hold a series of parties all across the country when the 2000th US soldier is killed in Iraq... |

| #30 The "Society of Friends" is the Quakers. The "Service Comittee" is a moonbat org, unacknowledged by the main body, as far as I'm aware. Posted by mojo If the Quakers have gone this far off of the rails, then I worry deeply for America's pacifist sector. The Quakers I grew up with were some of the most enlightened people I had ever met. I'm hoping that any notion of them "celebrating" a 2,000th military death has been adequately dispelled. Still, if they do not understand that their own exceptionally lucid faith is presently centered directly under radical Islam's sword, then their collective spiritual compass has been depolarized. This goes beyond pathetic. Moral relativism may well represent the most antidote-free form of kool-aid there is. Anyone who joyously celebrates America's 2,000th military loss of life in Iraq is little more than a traitor. Not just to America, but to the survival of mankind as a whole. |

| #29 No gathering in Garrett Park? Isn't that the town that declared itself a nuclear-free zone? I hope for their sake the Norks, Mullahs and al Qaeda got the press release. |

| #28 I looked at the Maryland list and I for one am sorely disappointed that there is no party in Garrett Park. |

| #27 Not of the Quaker stock like Nathanael Greene or Jacob Brown. |

| #26 The "Service Comittee" is a moonbat org, unacknowledged by the main body, as far as I'm aware. From their website at https://www.afsc.org/about/default.htm : -- Founded by Quakers in 1917... -- The AFSC is directed by a Quaker board and staffed by Quakers... Sound pretty Quakerish to me. Where is Sgt. York when you need him? |

| #25 The American Friends Service Committee is the same worthless bunch that held blood drives for the NVA during the VietNam War. I have had nothing but disdain for these loathesome self-righteous self-important, condescending copralites since then. They should have been shot then, now would be OK. |

| #24 Two thousand soldiers dead. In just a little under three years. About the same as the number of people killed on America's highways in the last three weeks. Is there some goddamn reason why I should fly into a screaming panic about the former, while completely ignoring the latter-- which, BTW, includes a number of little children??? |

| #23 Once upon a time, the Quakers went to battle armed only with medical kits, determined to help all they encountered. How sad that they have descended to this. If they had the courage of their convictions, they'd be sending units to Iraq to heal those wounded by suicide bombs and drive-by shootings. |

| #22 Two different things to be sure but the AFSC is endorsed by the Society of Friends. AFSC it primarily populated by activist quakers and those whose minds have been damaged by "quakerism". |

| #21 This is what I found... Please bring a candle and anything you may want to read or sing, as well as signs about ending the war or remembering the dead, keeping in mind the solemnity of the occassion. This event will be held rain or shine. no party, but I won't be attending regardless. |

| #19 AFSC also holds that American borders should be open and fences torn down. Anti-American at best, traitorous more accurately |

| #18 I've been doing something of a review of the movies, lately, the insidious anti-Americanism that pervades the vast majority of them. Right now I'm watching the Ozzie sci-fi classic, The Quiet Earth, a very interesting end of the world flic and, of course, it's absolutely all America's fault. *sniff* Truly sad, y'know, that so many have been led, probably from diapers onward, to the Dark Side. Innocently they go, the moonbattery reinforced constantly, unrelentingly, cluelessly - and without ever once actually challenging the destination - the essence of the meme being peddled. Almost makes me weep and reconsider. Then I come to my senses and remember this is for all the marbles. All of them. So fuck 'em. Who wants thoughtless, gutless, clueless bastards for traveling companions, anyway. Not me. |

| #17 These clowns do this periodically near where I live in suburban NY. There is a group of counterprotestors there every time. The counterprotestors get a much better response (though they are fewer in number). On a number of occasions, I have bought the counterprotestors cold bottled water. Now that things are getting chillier, hot chocolate may be in order. |

| #14 Yet another organization which has fallen under the influence, thoroughly infiltrated, in other words, by the socialists, Moonbats, and Tranzis. Whatever they may once have had, in the way of honorable intentions, is lost -- they have been subverted, hijacked lock, stock, and barrel to The Dark Side. And I'll wager they were a very, very, easy mark. It does not take 20-20 vision or a pure heart to recognize the insanity of claiming the US is an Imperial Power or the Home of Terrorism or the Essence of Evil or the Worst of Whatever... On its face, any and all of these assertions are asinine. It does take, however, a truly deranged and twisted mind to buy into any aspect of the Moonbat Kool Aid Kreed. This is where reasonable sane people can differ, I guess. When. When is enough, enough? When do we say enough lies? When do we decide enough subversive shit? When do we realize we are actually at risk? When do we admit, we can lose - everything? When do we recognize that our civility is our key weakness? When do we actually take off the gloves? When do we see what is, rather than a watered-down what we want to see? When do we stop the games, the Pollyanna pattycake, and get serious? When do we grab a shovel and muck out the barn? Tough questions. Tougher answers. "Doctor, it hurts when I do this." "Well then, don't do that, silly. That's what pain is for, y'know, it's a warning. Calculating your survival quotient is a simple equation... The key bit is how many warnings you need to learn the lesson. Oops, I guess that was your last. Sorry. Chart nah (Maybe next life)." |

| #13 I didn't know the Quakers were party animals. Bet the dope will be sweet. |

| #12 AFSC is the Quakers?!?!? Quakers using dead American soldiers as a political tool sounds like a particularly sick, twisted version of ScrappleFace. It was not "faith in the power of love to overcome violence and injustice" that put an end to mass graves, secret police, nerve-gassed children and live people tossed into shredders in Saddam's Iraq. It was military force. To think sitting around in a circle singing Kumbaya will fix the bad things in the world is naive beyond comprehension. |

| #8 But are you grim enough? That's the question, y'know. Does the reaction yield a "pffftt" or a "boom"... "Grim" is the crux of the biscuit, methinks, and the grim quotient will be the key determinant. Whimper or Bang? Cake or Death? |
