Code Pink

I think the government should round up all the members of this useless gang and tell them they are going on a paid vacation to Hawaii to protest at the military bases there. Put them on a few nice 747’s that are controlled by computers, tell the media the planes all have pilots, and in the middle of the shark infested Pacific Ocean, have the planes «crash» into one another. So if any of these scumbags do survive the «crash», they will be part of marine wildlife.

Wow looks like I got flagged. For people who stand behind there 1^st amendment rights they sure dont want to hear what other people think!
Good luck!

I don’t have to review Code Pink. The Daily Show already did it:

Barbara Lee does not speak for me and neither do these bitches. I don’t care who you are — Republican, Democrat, whacko — if you’re evangelical, stay out of my face. I’m against the war too, but I’m not pulling stunts like theirs (remember those who chained themselves to abortion clinics’ doors so no one could come in? this is no different) to get airtime.

Fluffy, but not Stuffy.

I’m for everything Melissa H. said and if you look at my review of
you can see why they irritate me so much.
Berkeley needs business and commerce to stay afloat, but groups like this make it an unattractive area to do business in and help continue to promote the false idea to the rest of the US and the world that the whole bay area is just a bunch of extreme left-​wing nuts.
It would be far more effective technique to lessening wars if you spent that time going out and volunteering to teaching poor children the extra intercultural skills they need to move up the economic ladder and improve their area and take care of their surroundings so they had other viable options than the military or sports or gangs or ‘rap’ing.
Also, you could spend time teaching your (mostly) white children about other cultures ways of life by visiting other groups religious centers and cultural hangouts (like festivals, martial art studios, etc.) to gain understanding.
All of these things would be far more effective ways of engendering peace and worldwide tolerance than bothering some military recruiters. Additionally, I suggest letters to your Congress-​person and running for office yourself as far more effective measures.

Code Pink makes me wish Unilocal would let us give negative stars.
Alas, one star is as low as it goes.
Code Pink is the organization behind the douches protesting the Marine recruitment office on Shattuck in Berkeley. Code Pink is a national organization, but its local office is in Albany.
A quick visit to their website will reveal immediately to anyone who has a passing familiarity with linear and critical thinking that they are using a large number of logical fallacies and errors to support their points. But, uncharacteristically, I’m not going to take their points, one by one, and submit them to academic scrutiny. Instead, I’m going to RANT.
Here we go.
These people are so impossibly retarded that they are impeding the work of– and attempting to drive out of town– the VERY PEOPLE WHO HAVE DEDICATED THEIR LIVES TO PRESERVING CODE PINK’S RIGHT TO ACT LIKE ASSHOLES TO THEM PUBLICLY. How far would public dissent go under the Third Reich, motherfuckers? Who won that war? Code Pink? I think not.
I love how liberals (and yes, I am one, just not an idiotic one) decry the existence of the military and flip out over spending money on the military, but don’t stop to think for even one half of one second where we would be today without our kickass military.
I know for a fact some of these Code Pink scrotes are Jews like me, and we would all be fucking DEAD if it weren’t for the bravery and sacrifice of the very Marines they’re calling «war predators» on their website.
Oh, Whiny McJagoff says, that was SO MANY years ago, and the world is so different now. Oh, really? Darfur, anyone? Rwanda? Even fucking Colombia, I mean JESUS. You know what? Let’s send half of Code Pink to Darfur and half to Kenya (check
if you want to see what’s going down there) and let them sort it all out with pink hats and signs that say «Stop the War.» The people there who are KILLING CHILDREN will certainly be impressed and lay down their arms and all join in a rousing rendition of Kumbaya while firing up the official Code Pink bong.
Code Pink is pretending that being against the war in Iraq = being against the military, and they actually believe it makes sense when expressed in those terms. Hate the war? Not as much as the Marine stationed in Fallujah, dumbass. How much sense does it make to harass the very people who are making it possible for us to maintain an ALL-​VOLUNTEER MILITARY in the middle of a fucking retarded war? What do you think the alternative is, Code Pink? You act like the Marines are kidnapping people. WTF happened to the liberal support for FREEDOM OF SPEECH, FREEDOM OF ASSEMBLY, and FREEDOM of lifestyle CHOICE?
You’re fascists– you have zero tolerance for points of view that deviate from your own. You have less tolerance for difference than the BUSH ADMINISTRATION. Chew on that.
Yes, I agree we should bring our kids home from Iraq, like, TODAY, but don’t blame individual military personnel for the decisions of their superiors. That makes you no better than the incredible douchebags who want to boycott the entire city of Berkeley just because of your stupid asses and the stupidity of the city council in supporting your stupid asses.
