Nothing says FREEDOM like
chicken wire, mounted police and a total ban on dissent!
Organizers of the Pentagon's 9/11 memorial Freedom Walk on Sunday are taking extraordinary measures to control participation in the march and concert, with the route fenced off and lined with police and the event closed to anyone who does not register online by 4:30 p.m. today.
The march, sponsored by the Department of Defense, will wend its way from the Pentagon to the Mall along a route that has not been specified but will be lined with four-foot-high snow fencing to keep it closed and "sterile," said Allison Barber, deputy assistant secretary of defense.
...
Officers are prepared to arrest anyone who joins the march or concert without a credential and refuses to leave, said Park Police Chief Dwight E. Pettiford.
America, fuck yeah! So, get off your ass and register today if you want to see Clint Black and his "I fucking love Republicans" anthem, because this is America sucker, love it on time or go to jail.
Pettiford said officers would patrol to keep interlopers out because the Pentagon restricted the event in its permit application. "That is what their permit called for, so we have those fences to keep the public out."
OK, admittedly this is the Post's choice of words, but I love it. Interloper. Nothing sums up the auslander attitude of this administration better than this.
Of course on the off chance somebody actually notices this absurd mocking of 'freedom' and points it out, bank on the Administration to cite the threat of terrorism as the reason why. As though there are a bunch of Qaeda operatives holed up in the suburbs of Washington chattering about this Courageous Display of Support for The President and Our Troops and Defiance of The Terrorists.
Abu Gonzo will be on telling us about the intercepted cellphone calls:
Ahmed: Brothers, the day is upon us! May Allah guide our swords as we decapitate the infidel country singer and strike at the heart, of the devil's morale!
Said: Shit, the martyrdom operations have to be postponed brothers! We missed the registration deadline! Alas, we will have to wait until the Country Music Awards!
