October 13, 2013: America's Showdown Veterans March on DC and Truckers Roll

On October 13, 2013, American veterans and other patriots are going to launch
a major protest. President Obama has been using the government shutdown as an
excuse to commit a string of almost unbelievable public outrages against
Americans everywhere. These include the following unbelievable eye-poppers:
Denying treatments for children suffering from cancer.
Denying death benefit payments to families of fallen soldiers,
while keeping the Andrews Air Base golf course open so Obama can continue to
play. Ordering the Park Service to hold elderly Yellowstone Park visitors in their hotel rooms under armed guard, then ordering them out of the park on busses and denying even a bathroom stop on the 2.5 hour drive out.
Closing access to all
national parks, monuments and park land, and beefing up patrols to keep people
out. Trying to prevent people from even looking at Mount Rushmore
All military memorials,
including the D-Day memorial and 23 other overseas memorials. Forcing veterans at the Vietnam War memorial to leave.
Breitbart has included a complete compendium, here.
Three things to note: 1. none of the 17 prior shutdowns closed any of these activities; 2. virtually all of these activities are either costless or “essential,” like medicines for the kids with cancer; many are privately funded; 3. enforcing these extreme measures has cost more than they spent before the shutdown.
All of these outrages can be laid directly at Obama’s feet. The only reason
he is getting away with it is because the media continues to largely give him a
pass. The media needs to know how angry we are about their shameless
cheerleading!
But people are really fed up. Acts of defiance have sprouted up all over the country North Carolina innkeeper Bruce O'Connell tried to reopen the Pisgah Inn, a scenic spot on the Blue Ridge Parkway. Now he is taking his case to court
Wisconsin's Department of Natural Resources, under Republican Governor Scott Walker, has ignored a federal directive to close seven state park properties that get federal funding
An estimated 1,000 hikers and bikers entered Acadia National Park in Maine on Monday, bypassing barricades and signs declaring the park and its roads closed
Dozens of fishing guides in Florida's Everglades planned to gather on the
outskirts of the national park on Wednesday to protest its closing, Who ever
heard of closing bodies of water?
These small acts of defiance, while encouraging, are only a prelude to what
is coming. When the people fear the government, there is tyranny. When the government fears the people, there is liberty. Thomas Jefferson
Million Vet March on the Memorials
This Sunday, October 13, 2013, the Million Vets March is descending on Washington, DC. Here is what the organizer has to say:I want you to circle the date of Sunday, October 13, 2013.
And then I want you to help “circle the wagons” on that day to help protect and defend our brave veterans who risked their lives for our freedom – and now are being barred from visiting the memorials erected to honor their deeds.
In a mean-spirited fit of selfish anger, Barack Obama has shut down our nation’s war memorials. And he has declared open war on our honored veterans!
The World War II memorial … the Vietnam Veterans Memorial … the Korean War Veterans Memorial – Obama has shut them all down to force his will on the House of Representatives and frankly, to get revenge on the American people who oppose Obamacare and his other naked power grabs.
Let’s put it plainly: Barack Obama is behaving like a vicious tyrant. And if he succeeds in this assault on the democratic system, the Republic we love is at mortal risk. It’s just that simple.
You can support this effort in numerous
ways:

Circle the date: October 13, 2013, and show
up!
Truckers for the Constitution
Beginning Friday, October 11, 2013, independent long haul truckers are going
on a nationwide strike. They will not haul freight anywhere. Instead,
coming from all across the nation, truckers will clog the Washington, DC beltway
for the first day of their three-day Ride for the
Constitution. The truckers are asking Americans nationwide to participate,
either by joining them on the road, joining the DC vets march, or in spirit by
spreading the word:
