[ April 19, 2024 ]
Yesterday, patriots of all races, creeds and colours came out in support of freedom. Hindus, Sikhs, African Americans, Arab Christians, Indians, and others joined our rainbow coalition and stood against the most extreme and radical ideology on the face of the earth. Huge thanks to Mike Grambush, El Marco, Katie O'Malley, Eliezer Barak, Brandy, Facebook friends, and Pamela Hall for photos.

UPDATE: Regarding the frozen zones: I am getting this from scores of people. Just for knowing, even my speakers couldn't get in — my security had to go get them. I don't know what the cops were thinking. This from Narain:
My 15 friends complained to me (each one separately) that Police did not allow them to come to our gathering and they went home.
I am sure some of your people also must have been prevented from joining us.
Do you think there was a plan/instruction to discourage people from attending our gathering?
I was surprised when one cop came to me and my friends and asked: are you in the right place. In fact, he wanted us to go to the pro-mosque group.
The "pro-mosque" rally had, maybe 50 to 60 clownish haters.

So wish I could have been there but it’s great to see the crowd again — we should re-name that block of West Broadway “Freedom Street”! Looking forward to the videos.

What a glorious achievement — you have given all Americans a shot in the arm and a pat on the back — let freedom ring. The devil and his minions are on the run, all incumbants OUT of Congress, we’ve got a whole slew of new young and old patriots who are heading for Washington and will make us proud — and free. Pamela, thank you so much for organizing this magnificent event. I’m sending copies of your entire posting to 10 German newspapers with words of shame that they did not cover the right 9/11 event in NYC.
Obama pretending to be a Christian and reading from the Bible was just putrid, Bloomberg was a farce, all of them are just trying to get votes from the stupid and uninformed. WE WILL PREVAIL. Thank you.

Thanks so much to you, Pamela, and to Robert and Pamela Hall for your hard work in putting this great event together for the second year. Many thanks to all of the fine guest speakers for making their way through the barricades, no mean feat!
As you mentioned early on during the rally, not one brick of the atrocious insulting mosque has been set in place yet. Good news that the Lower Manhattan Development Assoc. backed away from awarding a grant to the developers. I think they’re getting the message.

Thank you! Thank you, Robert and Pamela! I feel so proud to stand with all of you for the second year against this insult they’re trying to build there. Trying is the correct word. They won’t succeed!!
The speakers were wonderful and I have to second DanS’s comments about educating the uninformed. I tell family and friends things and their eyes widen. They have no idea! But they’ll pay more attention to the next article they read in the newspaper or see on the nightly news.
The thing that keeps me coming back to NYC on 9/11 is something that Pamela said, “America. Fight. For. Her.” What more motivation does one need?

The Pamelas are awesome!
Typun alert! I’m pretty sure Michael Paul is a “human” rights activist (unless he focuses on opposing FGM, in which case he would be a hymen rights activist). But not himan.
Typun = portmanteau of typo and pun. The result of freedom, and likely very un-Islamic.
Thank you for pouring kerosene on freedom’s flame.

Those were the policemen that ran away, and didn’t die saving other’s. What were you expecting from cowards?

Didn’t we have that trouble last year with some of the police sending people to the wrong demonstratons? I thought it might have been because there were cops there from all over the city and some might have been unfamiliar with downtown. But again? And actually blocking people from the demonstration? Somthing wrong there.

Oh you beautiful people, my spirits rose when I saw the pictures. On 9/11 I tried to find on our TV and cable channels (which include foreign channels Fox News, CNN, SKY, BBC, France 24) something, one tiny item, about your Freedom Rally event – but nothing. Not a single mention. Thank you Pamela Geller and Robert Spencer, and all you wonderful people, for not allowing yourselves to be intimidated and for fighting against the terrible forces of darkness – and thank you for standing with Israel.

Regarding the police’s actions in hampering attendee’s efforts to join your rally: I was irritated about this last year; now I am going to ask for a specific future course of action.
I believe you got a permit to hold your rally – so I would ask that next year, when you hold your next rally, you not only apply for a permit to use the area at the requested time, but that you also ask for a specific right of ingress, that you can advertize to the public as an appropriate way to approach the rally.
This way, should the police again divert and restrict access to the rally, you will have standing in court to challenge their actions. And I do think they will force you to do that. This may be America, but those who oppose freedom have not only taken over the MSM airwaves, but spend every effort to crush any opposition in all ways.

So who the hell were all those “media hounds” representing?? No news sources I could find… no mention whatsoever in ANY lamestream media, INCLUDING what we would usually call “right”, like the NY Post, or Foxnews web site…
Were they all waiting there just to see if fights or arguments would break out? If they wanted that, they shoulda gone to the West Indies parade….

NO kidding Frak. I have yet to see a single sound bite on Pamela’s rally.
I wonder if the “media” there weren’t merely shills for islamonazis, documenting everyone they could who showed up. I believe I’ve read hear or perhaps on another counter-Jihad website of an Islamic Observatory group that monitors anyone noteworthy who is critical of Islam.
12 years ago
Maybe they were restricting access because they were afraid of islamonazi terrorism? After all islamonazis aren’t adverse to killing anyone critical of their faith…

Fantastic! Great event. Wonderful pictures that really tell the story. Too bad the rest of the media didn’t cover the event. Seems like they’d want to.

I was there! From now until next September, I am deeply committed to putting more boots on the ground for the next one, would like to thank all who came, and esepcially would like to thank Pamela and Robert, the two of you woke me up, and ever since then I have been making it my business to wake up every single person around me.

I’m dying to know. How many showed up for the PC morning memorial (sans religious leaders) compared to your afternoon rally? Your huge turnout must have been the reason the cops tried to turn people away.

I, as the vast majority of citizens who feel sorrow and pain for those murdered by the sincerely obedient followers of muhammad and islam on 911, wish I could have been there, shoulder to shoulder with everyone on this rally.
Thank you Pamela and Robert, few causes gather such an outstanding group of individuals who exude the finest virtues of humanity, empathy, courage, intelligence and patriotism.

Something tells me Gloom-and-Doomberg knows all about Pam’s rallies – and have ordered the police to deliberately seek to sabotage her pro-freedom, pro-9/11 rememberance rallies. Remember, Bloomberg is in the pockets of oil sheiks and is a mega-supporter of the Ground Zero mosque. The fact that at least one police officer sought to divert and direct quite a few of the would-be rally attendants to a competing pro-mosque rally speaks volumes.
12 years ago
I said this above, but I blame Bloomberg himself. After all, he is a staunch (to the point of militant) supporter of the Ground Zero mosque and is totally owned by Arab oil interests. And it is he who sets the tone on everything. Thus such a tactic of police sending people to the wrong demonstrations is very much intentional and deliberate.

Is the sound erased or blocked?
