Anti-War Loons Plan to Imprison Recruiters in Pittsburgh
2008-03-12
Next week in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, anti-war lunatics are planning to storm a military recruiting office and imprison the recruiters in a “movable cage.”
On Wednesday, March 19, POG will be holding a torch-lit march to a modern day castle of abominations—our local military recruiting station. If the station remains open, we intend to evict it and everything inside of it, occupy the location, and transform it into something useful for the community. We’ll also be bringing a movable cage in which to confine military recruiters until they no longer pose a danger to our friends and neighbors.

Tough talk, the kind the mainstream media culture condemns when it comes from loyal Americans, but which is ignored or excused when left-wing seditionists do it.

It is still just talk, though, and it will probably come to nothing. It isn't that the moonbats aren't stupid to try it--there are no known limits to their stupidity-- but that Soros will intervene to stop it, since it might work against the leftist propaganda campaign to seize the White House.

If they do happen to try it, especially the kidnapping, it will be the worst day for domestic liberals since the Rosenbergs were fried.

#17  We just had a BarbClarkRN spam our troop support videos with some anti-troop shout down on Hollywood lane..? Forget the local.

Something tells me this is going to get way out of hand.

Spook, 9 iron? LOL!

#16  Walter Reuther, president of the UAW, who had been a socialist in his youth and even went to work on an assembly line in Russia, had an interesting solution to communists trying to take over the UAW.

Ax handles.

After a thorough discussion with union members, the communists left, never to return.

Walter Reuther was a good Democrat.

#15  Local DoD top (dogs)Chickens have already sent out info flyiers regarding the pending Saturday Tacoma Mall sit it or whatever it is, stongly encouraging active duty, dependents, retirees and DoD civilians to stay away from the festivities. I took a copy to a biker co-worker; kind of like waving a red cape at a bull..... not that i would condone violence of course....

CHICAGO, MINNEAPOLIS, NEW YORK, WASHINGTON D.C., ORLANDO, CHAPEL HILL, SC, TAMPA, BATON ROUGE, SAN DIEGO, SEATTLE, SAN FRANCISCO, OAKLAND, AND SACRAMENTO ....

#12  M Murcek is right - the military will be under very strong orders not to engage.
Posted by: lotp   2008-03-12 14:12  

#11  Unfortunately, DoD will make damn sure there's no confrontation, up to and including closing the recruiting office for the day.

And the assholes will say they won. And they might be right...

#10  I'd like to see the recruiters come to work that day in BDUs, carrying weapons. A half-dozen M-16s and a Ma-deuce would put an end to this tomfoolery in a heartbeat. If that's not possible, I'd like the recruiters to have a "hands-on visit" from a squad of Green Berets or a Navy SEAL team.

#9  I think alot of people are overlooking something.

Title 18, Part I, Chapter 115, § 2388. Activities affecting armed forces during war

(a) Whoever, when the United States is at war, willfully makes or conveys false reports or false statements with intent to interfere with the operation or success of the military or naval forces of the United States or to promote the success of its enemies; or
Whoever, when the United States is at war, willfully causes or attempts to cause insubordination, disloyalty, mutiny, or refusal of duty, in the military or naval forces of the United States, or willfully obstructs the recruiting or enlistment service of the United States, to the injury of the service or the United States, or attempts to do so—
Shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than twenty years, or both.

(b) If two or more persons conspire to violate subsection (a) of this section and one or more such persons do any act to effect the object of the conspiracy, each of the parties to such conspiracy shall be punished as provided in said subsection (a).

(c) Whoever harbors or conceals any person who he knows, or has reasonable grounds to believe or suspect, has committed, or is about to commit, an offense under this section, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than ten years, or both.

(d) This section shall apply within the admiralty and maritime jurisdiction of the United States, and on the high seas, as well as within the United States.


Now, seems to me that they could put everyone of these orc's in prison for two decades if there's a Fed. Prosecutor with a spine. Too bad there isn't one.

#8  Hickory is good but I prefer Japanese white oak. ;-)

I guess I'm a traditionalist.

#7  Hickory OldSpook, Hickory.

But please let them try. I could see a couple of recruiters laying the fools out one by one. Hell I'd pay to see that.

Popcorn anyone?

#6  I'd show up, and bring my walking stick. 54" of unshod solid tight-grained white oak, cured, sanded and brown at the ends from handling.

Of course some might call it a bo.

All I can say to these candy-assed wanna-bees is: bring it. I've seen far worse, and even old as I ma, I'll whip your little asses.

Ya see, the dirty little secret is that Anarchists are pussies - they don't do well unless in groups and attacking the unarmed and unprepared. If they are caught out alone, or face trained and/or organized opposition, they disintegrate because they are gutless.

And remember, the first ones up against the wall in an anarchy are usually the anarchists.

#5  Kidnapping, false imprisonment, obstructing federal officers in the performance of their duties - all federal offenses. Just the posting constitutes conspiracy to do the acts. Chances of them finding a sympathetic jury outside EuroBlue enclaves? Priceless.

#4  Anarchists call them themselves the "Pittsburgh Organizing Group"? Isn't that kinda defeating the purpose?

#3  I would pay good money to see this if they actually tried to do it. I think I would enjoy the resulting carnage immensely!

#2  I would not cry if these traitors and seditions tried it and got shot down in the street.

#1  Btw, "POG"= "Pittsburgh Organizing Group" or maybe "Pittsburgh Orc Gang," I forget which.

(Please remember not to leave out the "h" in Pittsburgh; the Pittsburghundians go apeshit when you do that. Besides, we wouldn't want anyone to think there was a moonbat orc gang in Pittsburg KS, Cthulhu forbid.)
