Moonbats Protest Israel and U.S. in Richmond VA

Local anarchists held an anti-Israel rally in front of Richmond City Hall Wednesday afternoon. It was kind of funny as they chose to line up at a bus stop at rush hour and were treated to good doses of bus fumes at very frequent intervals.

I stood across the street from them and was unable to read all but 2 of their signs the print was so small. The other 2 signs had too much verbiage on them to translate if you were driving by. I think the gist was Israel bad, Hezbollah misunderstood, U.S. downright evil. One lady made me laugh. She had hand printed her protest signs on the back of Tim Kaine for Governor yard signs.

It was a pretty colorless display even for an anarchist protest until an elderly lady showed up with a rainbow peace flag. Which got me to thinking how cool it would be to have a huge Marriage Amendment Rally with everyone waving rainbow flags. After all, God gave us the rainbow as a sign after the great flood. Noah and his family then began to repopulate the earth. Yes, it's time to take back the rainbow!

For awhile it was just me counter-protesting 20+ moonbats and I couldn't help but think of Israel surrounded by people and nations hating her, wanting to destroy her and disperse her people.

One of the people who joined me on the sidewalk has parents who are leaving their home in Europe to come here. They are Jews and no longer feel safe there. Another Jewish friend who came immigrated from Russia as a child with her family. A friend of theirs joined us before it was over.

The Richmond Police and a Capitol Hill Police Officer were very kind. It was a good day to be in Richmond.
