Rally Against Vicente Fox In Wilkes-Barre, PA - Nov 5, 2007

For Photo's w/story and video click here:  http://www.diggersrealm.com/mt/archives/002561.html

Vicente Fox, I'm sure, didn't expect a hundred or so people to show up protesting his presence in America giving speeches, but that's just what he got last night as patriotic Americans flooded the street across from the FM Kirby center in downtown Wilkes-Barre PA, just down the street from Hazleton.

Things kicked off in the Ramada Wilkes-Barre Tiffany Ballroom. The rally was organized by Voice of the People USA and the ballroom was provided by 9-11 Families for a Secure America.

We got going a bit late and after the speeches by Frank Scavo and Dan Smeriglio, we were running too late for the other speakers, myself included. So we got our signs ready and headed out to the FM Kirby Center across the street.

 

It was a cool night with a slight wind. There was a minor police presence that would later prove to be lackadaisical in the way they ran things. Granted we were happy to have their presence, but several times they disappeared from the scene.

Wilkes University should be ashamed of themselves for inviting this corrupt leader to speak under their banner.

The diversity of the crowd ranged from young to old, from black to white. The claims that our group is racist simply cannot stand if you have read any actual coverage of these rallies put together by myself or others. It is definitely representative of every group in America that stands against illegal immigration and against corrupt leaders like Vicente Fox. So now I present to you some shots of the patriots at the event.

The news showed up and interviewed Dan Smeriglio of Voice of the People USA

Shouts at the event ranged from "No To Fox" to "Go Home Fox" to "We're giving you a Revolution of Nope" referring to the book that Vicente Fox is promoting called "Revolution of Hope", which espouses the removal of borders between the US and Mexico and the continued flood of illegal aliens into this country.

Several of our patriots actually did go to the speech by Vicente Fox. They walked up, bought tickets and went in. Bruce DeCell of 9-11 Families for a Secure America was quickly singled out by those at the speech and he was told he had to leave or he would be arrested, even though he didn't say or do anything.

Others reported back that the speech was ridiculous with some Mexican music and Fox making some kind of little joke play with his wife who was in the audience and her cell phone. Calling her or something like that. He called for a "bridge of love" to be built between the US and Mexico. His speech was supposed to be to promote his new book, but according to reports it quickly descended into just rants on illegal immigration with Fox at one point declaring that he is against people coming here illegally.

I guess us patriots outside had a little to do with him feeling he had to counter our valid points we were making outside by addressing the issue with his false rhetoric.

Back outside we were having a ball. There really is nothing like attending these rallies and shouting with your fellow countrymen. If you haven't been to a rally what are you waiting for?

There were really no illegal aliens and their supporters protesting against us. There was one kid with a Mexican flag dancing around, but the majority of them were inside with "their leader".

The anarchists however did show up. Well fake anarchists anyway as most of them appeared about 16 years old and really didn't know what they were talking about. Several patriots were yelling back at them, but it really is fruitless. I approached one kid who was standing next to a cop. I engaged him in a pretty civil discussion. I saw his eyes light up a few times when I pointed out some of the flaws in his beliefs. I honestly believe that many of these kids haven't been approached with rational thought and facts on the issue.


The "Anarchists"


After about a 5 minute discussion where neither of us were yelling or making threats the police for some reason thought this would be a good time to end our talk. One cop turned around and smiled at me and said "Thanks for that", but the other cop turned to me as I walked away and said "You're not going to change their minds". I wholeheartedly beg to differ! Most of these kids have grown up in one town. They've never been out of their area. They certainly haven't been to a third-world country as I have. I honestly believe that that young man will think about some of the things I said to him whether he believes them or not. At least he'll think.


At least half of these "Anarchists" were little teenage girls who seemed to just sit by and titter when their "boyfriend" yelled some insult or vulgarity at us. The immaturity was palpable.

We continued on with people manning the bullhorn continuously. I took it up for a bit calling for freedom for our border agents that Fox had a hand in calling for their prosecution and calling for the closing of borders and that Americans come first and for Fox to go home and tell his people how to fix their own country rather than spreading his ridiculousness here.

 

Yes, my voice is a little gone today. I have a habit of going overboard. I now sound like a male Marge Simpson. A small price to pay though.

Oh the wrath bestowed on those attending the Fox speech. They got an earful and more as they waited outside to buy tickets or go inside. Most were dressed in suits and ties. Definitely the elitists who are benefiting from illegal immigration. The rest that were attending were bussed in from outside the area. Obviously Fox doesn't have many supporters in this area other than the ones making money off of this issue.

Fox arrived in a limo and our crowd started a continuous chant of "Fox Go Home" for a good long time and then "USA".

As the event preceded the cops seemed to actually disperse and wander away. The "anarchist" punks were still standing there where the police had put them, yet weren't separated from us in any way. A recipe for confrontation.

The "anarchists" came into our crowd and there was a lot of fronting going on between a few anarchists and patriots, yet nothing came to blows. The cops were nowhere to be found and didn't come back for a good 5 minutes after the confrontation started. Eventually when they got there they hauled away one kid who had repeatedly ignored their directions and arrested him.

The rain started coming down and yet we persevered, something I'm sure Vicente Fox would never do for "his people". One lady there had her baby in a baby carrier and was standing in the rain outside the Fox speech. She got quite an earful from those on our side for keeping her baby out in the rain. Probably one more child American taxpayers will have to pay for when she has to take it to the Emergency Room with a cold for keeping it out in the cold rain.

 

The rally ran from 7-10PM, an hour after the scheduled end time. We were all awaiting the traitorous people coming out of the Fox speech. And they got a big earful upon leaving. From "you wasted your money" to "how does it feel to support a corrupt leader" to "you should be ashamed you bunch of slave owners" the people coming out visibly had their heads down, as they should have. The most vicious shouts at the people leaving came from the Latinos among us who see Fox as the biggest traitor alive.

And once again one of our own made the poor decision to walk around outside near the "anarchist" thugs after the rally. It is a shame that you can't walk around in America without being assaulted, but that is exactly what happened to Jim. He was jumped by 3 or 4 "anarchist" punks. One punched him in the face and he punched him back, but was then hit from behind with a skateboard.

The police once again proved incompetent as they apparently wouldn't take eyewitness testimony as to which punks it was without having pictures. Several patriots went with Jim to the police station with pictures. I don't know the results of that complaint yet, but will report back when I find out further information.

Overall this rally was a success. Those attending the Fox speech visibly showed their shame. We had our say and apparently Fox heard us as his speech focused more on our issue than on his book sales. I am proud and glad to have attended it and haven't felt this good about an event since Washington DC.

Tocoma---a different story:

 

A 1 Woman Show
From Jonnie (an American Patriot) of March For America

I arrived at the park at 17th St and Pacific in Tacoma this morning at
10am. I was the 1st one on the scene. I waited. and waited. and no other patriots showed, not a single one. I'll tell you who did show though, about 50 anarchists calling for open borders and an end to the ICE detention center. It was them and just me.

I followed them throughout their march downtown carrying my American flag and bull horn. Even though I was a lone, I was not silent. I buckled down and stuck it out but I wished some one had showed up, even if it had been just one other person.

During the march there were a young college couple who saw me and ended up joining me, which was just luck. I got a lot of honks and yells of approval from cars passing by, which helped keep my spirit up a little.

The anarchists open borders crowd did not get off without a hitch today but the counter protest to their demonstration (me) was not worthy of any mention by the media because I was just one person.

Video of today's events is at

Link Here For Video

They have PLEDGED to return again tomorrow at 11am at 17th St & Pacific in Tacoma. I will be there again to stand up for America, and hope I'll be able to count more than just myself.

I know this was short notice and most everyone was working today, but if you don't have plans tomorrow and are not working, I'll be there again.

Sorry to lay it on, but it wasn't FUN being one person against 50 open borders anarchists today.

Jonnie

beyondangry - do you belong to Numbers USA?  if so go to your local members list and send them an email - these are usually members of Numbers USA that are within driving distance of you - so hopefully they will come.

You can send them the link to the PA event and ask them to help you in this one?

Also go to FAIR - where the post was for the PA event - see if they can help you contact local members for support.

We need more crowds and larger crowds at all of Fox's "events" to show the media we mean business when it comes to our countries soverignty.

The Democrat's are telling La Raza and all the "groups" to lay low until after the 2008 elections and then they will push through "comprehensive immigration plans".   They want the "focus" to be on the Iraq war or the Economy so the Dem's can win the white house and more Senate seats and then they will push through the open borders agenda.

CJBL- Yes, I have been a member of NumbersUSA a little over a year now.

I have emailed Kroktalk--WSBradio and others.  I will follow up on your leads. 

My problem---that part of Atlanta is not a good place in the day---I become even more apprehensive thinking about the night.....

I guess I will just have to keep Jonnie's ordeal in mind and continue on.  I would imagine she experienced a few chills as well.

By the way CJBL---You always have great, informative post----thanks.

Thanks beyondangry!  I would be there with you but I live in CA.

I will be marching on Nov 17th in the anti-NAU SPP - event.  I look forward to meeting our soon to be (2009) new Mayor Walter Moore!

Hopefully we will get a good crowd and I am sure details will be posted!

Good luck in your rally against Fox!  What is "spews" out in America vs what he actually did when in office in Mexico is like night and day.

What a corrupt country that is.  It makes China look like Britain.

I equate Mexico with Dafur - to me they treat their people the same way.

How he can even show his face is beyond me.

 YES---I saw his visual tour of Mexico north of the border.   What a disgrace!   

I am constantly looking for people to run against our treasonous bunch here in GA. 

Congressman Paul Broun, so far, has not disappointed me....but he will have to run again in Nov. 08....(Replaced Charlie Norwood). 

My fears are that no Republicans will run against Chambliss and Isakson.  The liberals running  can't think beyond their noses and will be taking marching orders from their many communist counterparts on Capitol Hill.

"Fox arrived in a limo and our crowd started a continuous chant of "Fox Go Home" for a good long time and then "USA"."

 

Isn't that special??  His people arrive with just their clothes on their backs, after miles and miles of walking thru the desert, some dying along the way and he arrives in a limo--how nice, I am sure they identify with him--NOT!!  He, he would fit in with our bot and paid for elected officals in Wash DC completely--they are living the high life in limos and fancy homes, and we are struggling to keep our homes, keep ourselves well and keep our jobs!




If you have to hyphenate your race--you are NOT an American!! This from a French-German-English-Irish-AMERICAN! See how silly this can become?
