My Most Recent Counter-Protest

It's been a while since I've been able to get on here and see whats been going on, and there certainly has been a lot. I see that over 500 people have given my site a look, and to those 500 people I give thanks. There have been some comments posted on my "Why I Am A Conservative" post, some of them good, come of them not, but I welcome any and all opinions at my website and I will not lower my standards in order to respond to any one of them in peticular...I think we all know which one I'm talking about, its somewhere around number 2 or 3 on the comments.

Anyways moving on, as many of my readers know, I participate in a weekly counter-protest (see "Protesting the Left-Wing Ideology" if you don't know whats going on) and this past Friday was no different. I stood there, across from a man in a skirt, reading his sign, and holding mine. His had the current number of dead and injured in Iraq as well as a "Support the Troops, Bring Them Home!" sign underneath. It was like any other Friday afternoon, a few thumbs up for each of us, a few middle fingers, and some words of encouragement as well as a few words that I will not repeat on this site. But then, things got interesting.

While I was standing there holding my sign, having the words "Fascist" "Nazi" and "War Mongerer" hurled at me by the man in the skirt, an individual drove by and yelled something at "Sissy," what it was, I'm not 100% sure. While the man was driving away, "Sissy" yelled something else back, and again I'm not sure what it was, but it got the mans attention and he circled the block and pulled up right next to the protester. After a few words were exchanged and a few "F--- You"s later, the man began to drive off with the words "Yeah! Drive away like a F---ing coward!" spewing from "Sissy's" mouth. The individuals truck came to a dead stop in the middle of the intersection. He kicked it into reverse, slammed it in park, and started to walk towards "Sissy" with murder in his eyes.

At this point I was faced with a dilema: Let the protester get his ass kicked, or be the bigger person and step in between the two men. For some unknown reason I felt like being a bigger person on this day and walked up to the driver and said to him "Sir, it's not worth it, it really isn't. He wants you to beat the hell out of him in order to make himself look better, and to make you look like an asshole, so don't do it, please, sir, as much as I would love to see it I can't let you do it." The guy put his hand on my shoulder and said "Son, there's not going to be any ass kickings today, and thank you for talking some sence into me before I did something I would regret later, I'm just going to go talk to this guy."

Well, as many of you may or may not know, I'm always willing to at least watch a debate, just to see how things go down, and I didn't want to see the driver be thrown in jail after he beat the hell out of "Sissy" so I was ready to step in between the two yet again, in order to keep the peace. It started off as any debate would "You're wrong!" "No! You're wrong!" blah blah things like that. Then the man they call "Sissy" ran out of intelligent things to say and threw out "Well you're just a dick head!!!" Oh how I wish I'd had a camera at the time! Anyways, I calmly said to "Sissy," "Just because you disagree with what this man has to say doesn't mean you have to personally attack him like that, he has a right to an opinion too." He looked at me with fury in his eyes and said "Well did you hear him call me a Sissy Ass Faggit earlier?!" and before I could say no and explain myself the drive started saying "LOOK AT YOURSELF, MAN! YOU'RE IN A F---ING TU-TU!" I was laughing hysterically on the inside! "Sissy" then said to me "You're just some dumbass High-School kid who doesn't know anything about politics or the world, so go and stand your dumbass over there!" Now, at this point I was absolutly livid! I looked him straight in the eye and said to him as calmly as possible, "Calling someone a dumbass strictly because they disagree with you, you're a class act Sissy, a class act."

Then the debate between Sissy and the Driver went on, and somehow got to military service, and Sissy asked the man "WHere did YOU serve?! I served in VIETNAM" and the man replied "Well I'm going to Iraq October 11th and I have friends and family over there right now, fighting and dieing for your right to stand out here in a skirt!" That being said the man started to walk back to his truck, resisting the urge to punch Sissy in the face, with the protester yelling "Well I hope you dont get hurt over their!" Note, his sarcasm was so thick you could have cut it with a knife. This was the straw that broke the camals back for the driver and he yelled back "I'll chop your f---ing head off!" So, being the person that he is, Sissy called the guy in for a death threat.

MOVING ON! I was walking to my car, putting my sign away, when I hear Sissy yell to me "I want to talk to you for a second!" So I waited, and he came up to me and said, with great hesitation, "I'm sorry I called you a dumbass earlier." I replied to him "It's already been said, you proved to me that you are nothing more then a knee jerking leftist, with not one single care for others peoples rights. I could have let that man beat the living hell out of you! But I didn't! I protected YOUR RIGHT to stand out there and voice your opinion without having to fear violence from others, and what do you do?! You call me a dumbass! I will not be excepting your apology, Sissy, what you said may not have been the worst you could have said, but it is still unforgivable!" By this time I was furious, and about 2 inches from Sissys face, and the cops came running from the station and seperated us both. I later had to fill out a witness's statement, and might have to testify in court if Sissy decides, and he will, to press charges against the driver.

Needless to say, it gets no better then THAT for a protest! I LIVE for that kind of intensity and insanity. This concludes my post for this evening, good night, and I hope you enjoyed reading this.
