ACTIONALLIANCE STANDS WITH REP. PETER KING….

A rough preliminary list of media, blogs re today’s protest in support of Rep. Peter King’s upcoming Congressional hearings.  We also have video. On tv so far we have people reporting they’ve seen it on CBS, NBC, Fox, News12 Long Island. If anyone sees any other reports, kindly let me know.
This was organized in about 48 hours after we heard that there were going to be anti-King protests in Long Island. Many thanks to all who attended and helped.
We will again be standing with Congressman King and for Homeland Security for our country again on March 6th in Times Square when Imam Shamsi Ali holds his anti-King, anti-hearings rallies, and with our Liberty Alliance of groups on March 3rd in Washington when Imam Choudhury holds his rally at the White House calling for an Islamic American caliphate.  We are not going to stand silently by as a courageous Congressman who works to protect Americans of all backgrounds is labeled “Islamophobe” and “bigot” by radical Islamists and their enablers.  Nor will we stay silent as troublemakers from at home and abroad attempt to push an Islamic Shariah caliphate on our Constitutional Republic and threaten our Judeo-Christian civilization.
