| I wish I had the self control that John Hawkins displays. "Would someone who loved their country carry a placard like this?," he asks. I've been stewing about this all day, hoping I would gain some composure. Didn't work. Can somebody tell me how these people are not the same enemy it was okay to shoot in 1943 Germany, 1951 Korea, 1969 Nam, or 1990 Iraq? Frankly, I'm a bit surprised these people were not beaten to death. Maybe if they'd been somewhere besides San Francisco? Anyway, I've read this script before, and I know the outcome, and it ain't good. Hell, ain't even any good music coming out of this redux. |  |

If this were 50 years ago, it'd be okay to shoot them, and there wouldn't be a prosecutor in the country that would bring charges, much less a jury that would convict. Today, though, if you so much as said, "I hope that these guys get hit by busses," you'd probably be put on trial for hate crimes.

Posted by Yarbz at April 12, 2004 04:15 PMYarbz, your question ( i believe ) is more of a when will in stead of a why.
Posted by ted at April 12, 2004 04:55 PMFrom what I've read about 60's culture, Berkeley disease had taken a massive toll on Americans, making them into walking, talking lumpen vats of stupidity, proud to brandish placards with pro Communist slogans scrawled across them. Looks to me like America's *overtly* pro-communist cheerleaders have taken a devastating hit in their numbers because these demonstrations are few and pitifully small.
We are fighting a sect of Shiite Moslems that is controlled by Iran. The first thing that sect will do is forbid women to leave their homes unaccompanied by a man. If the women do they will be stoned to death.
These men who are holding these signs in support of this sect obviously hate women.
Thet hate America. At least the America I know and love.

Posted by Rodger Schultz at April 12, 2004 10:48 PMIt's ironic that these very same people who purport to hate America so much, yet who have their speech and rights protected by America, so easily side with those who have proven, by their actions, to be the very incarnate of evil.
These folks don't really make me mad. Naaaah. I see them as just the human form of pus that rises from a festering wound, which is the Radical Left. You see, like pus, they began as something else. In their case they were idealistic, energetic believers in a what they thought was a very real 'something': Marxian-Socialism. However, seeing the Communist Bloc world crumble and fall, taking with it their dreams of actually being important in the grand scheme of things, they became like pus: diseased, used-up necrotic tissue oozing from the festering boil of a discredited idealogy.
Look at it like that, and you can laugh at 'em!
Posted by Trooper John Smith at April 13, 2004 12:53 AMThis movement is never laughable. Modeled after the KGB engineered Viet Nam movement ... Hell, you know the story, and the result.
