2004/2005 anti-war protest videos restored

I've finally gotten around to restoring a few videos from my old site. These three are from anti-war protests beginning just before the 2004 election and into 2005.

In this video, from 2004, anti-war demonstrators are surprised to be confronted by a small group of conservative counter-protesters (Young Conservatives of Texas):

Our local CBS affiliate ended up using some of this video for a report about the YCT.

 

Video 2: A protester gets tasered when a group demonstrating against Bush's second inauguration blocks the Congress bridge in downtown Austin.

Video 3: Anarchists square off against Protest Warrior.

You can see the rest of my videos at my YouTube page.

What's wrong with this picture?

From antiprotester:

This is a test:

"An elderly Iraqi woman shows two bullets which she says hit her house [emphasis added] following an early coalition forces raid in the predominantly Shiite Baghdad suburb of Sadr City."

The only way those bullets hit her house was if someone threw them at her house.

You see, they've never been fired. For those of you unfamiliar with firearms, only the little copper-looking tip is the actual bullet. The larger, cylindrical casing below it holds the primer and the gunpowder that propels the bullet out of the firearm.

Nice going, AFP! Proof again, that members of the MSM are often dupes for terrorist propagandists, and know very little about things military.

A quick US exit from Iraq: seven scenarios

Austin Bay offers seven realistic scenarios that could result from a quick US withdrawal from Iraq. Needless to say, most of them are not in this country's interest (or that of the rest of the world for that matter).
