I have had this on my mind non stop due to no Media and how it was such a emotional event so I wanted to ask everyone and see what your thoughts are and if you would come plus bring a extra person so we can be bigger,but to the point the media could not and would not blackout a formation that size or bigger if we did it in one place and that is New York City,would be a long march but could march past every morning news show and then choose a stopping point for same reason as at the white house.Just my thought as of now but depending on response may make it more then a thought,National coverage on every station and would be on news all day,who would come to this if it was set up????We did great but now we can get the world to see and many don't know they just watch msm,please comment if you would take part or think it is a great idea

Honestly, I feel like no matter how many people you get to show up, the media will NEVER acknowledge veterans in support of Ron Paul. Hundreds of veterans marching in rank to the North Lawn of the WH and giving a salute, in condemnation of the wars and in support of Ron Paul didn't get any coverage for a reason.

If they were marching in favor of the wars and were holding Romney or Obama signs, it would have been all over the news.

This isn't by accident. The media is nothing but a bunch of corporate sellout WHORES who are funded by the exact people whom fund the warfare state. They will NEVER cover anything that invalidates the propaganda and lies they perpetuate to the masses on a daily basis.

Adam was on Infowars Nightly News the other day and made an important point. Let's not pretend that we NEED the shitstream corporate media. Let's not plead and beg them to give us the time of day we deserve. Let's not beg for their table scraps. They've drawn a line in the sand and have picked their side, and we've picked ours.


Always remember, The Revolution Will Not Be Televised.

Also, I want to add....

The only reason they would cover a RP rally would be if they could somehow demonize the supporters involved in the rally. They'd use anything. In fact, I think there was one online media outlet having the audacity to claim that none of the supporters at the rally were actually veterans, but were simply a bunch of Paul supporters acting like veterans. :o Talk about a slap in the face! That's quite an absurd claim to make and I'm VERY surprised the media didn't try to run with that bullshit.

It's really a double edged sword. If you want to get picked up by the MSM, you have to do something "ratings -worthy" or "page click-worthy."

-Perhaps everyone marching in uniform would do the trick? Of course, they'd be demonized for breaking the codes or whatever, and would be risking a lot by doing so. Double edged sword.

-Perhaps marching armed? Everyone has a rifle over their shoulder.... that could make headlines. And of course, I'm sure you understand the risks involved. Also a double edged sword.

As long as the uniforms had the nametapes and "U.S. whatever service" ripped off of them, then it is fully legal to wear them in any fashion the wearer chooses. Both by regulation and federal law. This is the way the clothing item can be commercially procured and the overall appearance to the viewing public is the same. If all involved were wearing the camo pattern of their individual branch of service then the visual impact on the public would be greatly increased. There would be no denying of the dedication towards uniformity, and those who oppose the VFRP movement would have to respect the fact that everyone involved is dedicated enough to "stand out" by "following". Just like they teach us on active duty when we are being groomed to become a leader. A good leader knows when to follow in order to achieve the greater goals of the unit. If the groups appear more professional, then the impact that can be had on the community you are attempting to persuade will be further reaching.

Maybe I misunderstood what you were saying, but there is absolutely nothing illegal about wearing your or anyone elses uniforms wherever you wish. Those are UCMJ rules. And besides, even if it did somehow break a code or twelve.... f-em I for one wont be told which clothing I' 'allowed' to wear, much less the uniforms I earned.

See Adam's UCMJ violation and awesome letter for reference!

Adam was given an OTH Discharge for protesting in uniform while still a member of the IRR, right? I don't think UCMJ applies to those of us that are discharged PFC's (proud f***ing civilians), or does it?
Either way, I'll wear uniform items whenever & whereever I want.
