Once again Save Our State members and guests protested the American Apparel retail store in Hollywood, CA to bring attention to their un-American hiring practices. A small, but strong group joined together to speak as one voice for the American worker. Twice before we have brought attention to this business and its illegal hiring practices. As expected, our presense brought out counterprotesters in the form of approximately 35 members of the Brown Beret gang members and the true Twins of Deception- Naui and Cliff.

From the words of an SOS leader: The police we came after us with a vengeance. One was yelling at the top of her lungs at Ol Glory who replied to the woman officer that she wasn't deaf. This woman officer told us we did not have a permit and would have to remove our signs and flags from the area. To which I and the other there responded to her that we did not need a permit to carry a sign on a public sidewalk. At that point I told them that my attorney was parking his car and would be right there to speak with them. After I mentioned that our attorney was on his way, the woman officer made a 180 degree turn in her persona, and was now saying please. She then said it would be ok for us to have our signs but the poles holding the flags were metal and we had to remove them. This was the same thing we had been told when we did the second Hollywood march, so I know that there might be some truth to that. She told me that if one of the participants on the other side causes any physical abuse to any of us that we must write it down and sign it because it is a civil offense, to which I said "Yes, I understand, that is a citizens arrest". She said yes it is. I said "Yes, I know the law". She then apologized to me for yelling earlier and gave me her card. About a minute later Sam arrived and spoke with the officers and they exchanged cards. By this time many of the Brown Berets were leaving, especially the one that the officer had asked me to stand next to. It seem he had a warrant out for his arrest, and couldn't get out of there fast enough. Could be why so many of them left so quickly. We stayed for a few minutes longer and since it was now close to 1:00 we left also.

  • what exactly did you say about that "kitty" in the background with her "black brown coalition" and what you would do to her? wow you sound just as hateful and ignorant as the people you are fighting.how can you say you stand for freedom when your trying to deny freedom from others?your nasty little comments about her and there ethnic backgrounds just goes to show that your not playing with a full deck of cards either.if you wanna be mad at someone you need to protest Gap and Tommy Hillfiger.

  • @hottieho13

    Thanks for your comment, hot-ho. I'm glad you can at least admit that the opposition to U.S. sovereignty is hateful.

  • you didnt do shit the brown berets did not attack you stupid you got upset because they were telling you the truth

  • The violent and racist Brown Beret gang members wouldn't know "truth" if it slapped them in the face.

  • LOL Brown berets? How original, they didn't copy that off of the green berets did they?

  • The Brown Berets are nothing more than Brown Nazis they even dress like them. They're the Tan Klan of today and just like the Klan they support only one race and only Mexico.
