Supporters and detractors of the United States military battled it out in Berkeley for at least the sixth time this year: the latest in a relentless series of protests and counter-protests to seize the upper hand in the controversy over the “Marine Corps Officer Selection Office” on Shattuck Square.
Summer Solstice showdown featured Move America Forward, the Marines Motorcycle Club, EAGLES UP, the Patriot Guard Riders and other veterans’ and pro-America groups facing off against their traditional adversaries: World Can’t Wait, Code Pink, the Revolutionary Communist Party, assorted 9/11 Truthers, far-left activists and their fellow travelers.

This video shows about a minute’s worth of Nazi saluting, screaming and booing during the playing of the Star Spangled Banner.
They directed their Nazi salutes toward a group of flag-waving patriots across the street.
Note the paper she is trying to hand out says: The Barack Obama Campaign
Melanie Morgan then took the mike and fired back by triumphantly announcing the news that the City of Berkeley had just revoked Code Pink’s controversial free parking space in front of the Marine Corps recruiting office .
Marine Corps veteran. Code Pink and World Can’t Wait would have a lot of convincing to do if they wanted to convert this Hero!

Wild Thing’s comment……..
God bless all that showed up to counter the America and military hating lefties. And God bless our troops!!
At least we still have freedom of speech and the freedom to assemble. It’s good news to hear the Berkeley city council finally wised up to the fact they were being stupid by allowing Code Pink to dictate terms to them.
I see that under Obamanation, we just might lose those rights we hold most dear and then even Code Pink will be in trouble.
Thank God for the troops. They’re doing a fantastic job.
For left-wing ‘Blame America First’ Code Pinkooks, they seem to know a lot about WAR? The Gestapo and Waffen SS, and Stalin’s army would have rounded up these treasonous scumbags first above all others and off to the stalags / gulags they would have gone. This was just over 70 years ago.
Ha! National public feedback caused the Berkeley City Council to deny Code Pinko their favorite parking spot. The Lefties have now faced counterdemonstrations for the first time and they don’t know what to do.
The one has a sign or whatever, about B. Hussein Obama, and what to like about this country. We all know they don’t like this country and they haven’t like it for 45 years.
Why are they still here. We sure as hell aren’t going to change and they aren’t going to change so but we are the majority so it is time for them to take their exit and visit Raul in Cuba, where it is so great.
Let them protest Castro and see how long it goes on.
That outfit, Force Recon and ANGLICO are Marine Units, you never hear about. No plaudits, or advertising they are just there in the background, but ever present and always on time.
Yeah, let that scumbag Code-pink try to burn this flag..
Lynn, Amen! Freedom of speech works both ways and I bet Code Pink wishes that only they could have that Freedom. heh heh.
Darth,yes they would have your right.
Tom, giggle I love it. The people have spoken loud and clear. heh heh
Mark, I agree, if I hated the country I lived in I sure would do all I could to move to one I did like. Like when the commie Hollywood people say they will move to France, well some have GOOD, get lost and don’t come back.
Mark, I love those and got to meet several that served with them. Thanks so much Mark for talking about them.
Yes Code Pink doesn’t know what they are up against. heh heh LOVE it!
Zombie in Berkeley
The blogger who influenced me to focus my own blog on the countless protests here in DC, Zombie, has a great photo essay on this weekend’s events in Berkeley against the Marine Recruiting station there. Complete with video;
Code Pink was clas…
Sharia is the answer. Burka’s for all Code Pinko’s.
