Carrie's Friday Foto Finish Fiesta -- PROTEST





I have a handful of photos to share today. They are from the protest against that murderous bastard Ahmadinejad held on 9/25/08 at 42nd and Lexington infront of the Hyatt Hotel where the most ignorant "religeous" organizations were hosting this monster.


Please note that the photo with the "V" is not a peace sign. 1. Look closely at which side of his hand is facing forward. 2. In the Middle East that "V" means victory NOT peace. There was a good game going on between me and that couple. They saw me videotaping them and they began taping me back and I just kept going and going as much as I could. They are vile people that want people like Ahmadinejad to rule the world. They want me dead and you dead too. The Jews are always the canary in the coal mine. Don't believe your next? Think again. Videos will be available later today.


From Wikipedia: The V sign is a hand gesture in which the first and second fingers are raised and parted, whilst the remaining fingers are clenched. With palm inwards, in the United Kingdom and some other English speaking countries, it is an obscene insulting gesture of defiance.
And from answers.com: The American gesture, formed by holding up the middle finger alone, which was roughly equivalent to the V-sign, has been introduced to British culture by American films and other media, since about the 1960s, and is now well understood by most British people.


You see simply photographing THESE people, no conversations, just my presence and taking of photos in their direction is so offensive to them that I got the fuck you sign of their culture. Can you imagine what life would be under their rule?



Videos of the protest. I only had my casio camera with the video. I got almost all of Curtis Sliwa's speech and then the darn memory was full. I missed about the last 20 seconds.

Hope you will watch all of them and see just how diverse a group WE TRULY ARE!

This cop would not let me and many others stand at the curb. We were NOT at the crosswalk, which is not only the only safest place to cross but the only legal place to cross the street. He was telling everyone who wanted to watch that they could not do so but instead had to cross the street and participate. I thought we had the right to assembly in this country? No? I also thought it was our legal right to stand on the sidewalk anywhere at any time. NO? And notice how he isn't asking the Muslim group to move yet he is everyone else.


This one is short. Just showing protestors chanting.




If you listen closely you'll hear some guy who came up to me asking me a question about my videotaping ONLY so he could start to shout pro-palestinian propaganda and opinions at me. Since I ignored him he went away. In one of the above videos you'll see him chatting it up with the cop.


Pretty much the ONLY news media here.
WHY? Why don't they cover this? It is a news event. It is valid! But they have time on Larry King to cover THE BASTARD. So much for an unbiased media! Around 7PM one camera from NBC showed up. NO ONE ELSE!
