The Washington D.C. rallys

| No Comments
Looks like the muzzies were skeered of the big bad Harleys. From The Washington Times:
�2 Million Bikers� roar into D.C. to honor 9/11, protest Muslim rally
Thousands of bikers from around the country roared into the D.C. area on Wednesday in a show of support for Sept. 11 victims and in solidarity against a controversial Muslim rally on the Mall.

The 2 Million Bikers to DC ride might have fallen short of 2 million strong, but the numbers were impressive. A line of shining chrome and steel bikes stretched about a third of a mile from the starting point at the Harley Davidson of Washington store just outside the District in Prince George�s County.

The bikers began departing from the store at about 10:30 in staggered groups of 50, stopped for traffic lights and taking an hour or so to get on the road.

The ride was complicated by the fact that federal and local authorities denied a permit that would have offered the riders a police escort through traffic � a sore spot with organizers who thought the denial was for political purposes.

�We�re here for 9-11,� said national ride coordinator Belinda Bee. �We are going to have a peaceful ride. � But there are people who are sick and tired of their rights and liberties being taken away.�
From The Washington Times again:
Muslim rally vastly outnumbered by bikers, counterprotesters
A few dozen demonstrators attending a rally on the Mall once billed as the Million Muslim March were vastly outnumbered Wednesday by a Christian group objecting to their event and a counterprotest consisting of motorcycle riders honoring Sept. 11 victims.
This great photo of the Million Muslim March was posted at The Blaze:

The Blaze is also doing live reporting and videos of the Two Million Bikers to D.C. rally A much more substantial turnout -- I hope our representatives wake up to the whole "We the People" thing. I wish I could be there. On a final note, on this first anniversary of the terrorist attack in Benghazi, Hillary was not well received. From The Washington Times:
Hillary Clinton heckled on Benghazi during award ceremony
Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton fielded hecklers who hounded her on Benghazi at the tail end of an award acceptance speech she delivered at the National Constitution Center in Philadelphia on Tuesday evening.
The sooner these people are removed from leadership, the sooner our United States will begin to recover from its 100-year sleep and become the shining beacon again.
