to read all about it.
This is making me madder and madder. I wish I weren't working Monday, I'd be out there "counter-protesting"!!!

Come to think about it, it would be a grand thing if some guys from TNDeer were there to show support for Sgt. Weir and his family. There's no way I can get off work--maybe someone else will read the article and set it up.

Just thought some of you guys (and gals) would like to know that once again, a loco fringe group is spitting on a fallen GI, and in his grieving family's faces.

HOw disgusting to say only 100 dead, wish it was 10,000 dead. Myabe these protesters should be met with M-16's, and then a e-maily darn only 100 protesters dead, wish it was 10,000 dead.

Here's a quote from a post by David earlier this year
"WASHINGTON (AP) -- Demonstrators would be barred from disrupting military funerals at national cemeteries under legislation approved by Congress and sent to the White House.
The measure, passed by voice vote in the House Wednesday hours after the Senate passed an amended version, specifically targets a Kansas church group that has staged protests at military funerals around the country, claiming that the deaths were a sign of God's anger at U.S. tolerance of homosexuals.
The act "will protect the sanctity of all 122 of our national cemeteries as shrines to their gallant dead," Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist, R-Tennessee, said prior to the Senate vote.
"It's a sad but necessary measure to protect what should be recognized by all reasonable people as a solemn, private and deeply sacred occasion," he said.
Under the Senate bill, approved without objection by the House with no recorded vote, the "Respect for America's Fallen Heroes Act" would bar protests within 300 feet of the entrance of a cemetery and within 150 feet of a road into the cemetery from 60 minutes before to 60 minutes after a funeral. Those violating the act would face up to a $100,000 fine and up to a year in prison.
The sponsor of the House bill, Rep. Mike Rogers, R-Michigan, said he took up the issue after attending a military funeral in his home state, where mourners were greeted by "chants and taunting and some of the most vile things I have ever heard."
"Families deserve the time to bury their American heroes with dignity and in peace," Rogers said Wednesday before the House vote.
The demonstrators are led by the Rev. Fred Phelps of Topeka, Kansas, who has previously organized protests against those who died of AIDS and gay murder victim Matthew Shepard.
In an interview when the House bill passed, Phelps said Congress was "blatantly violating the First Amendment" rights to free speech in passing the bill. He said that if the bill becomes law he will continue to demonstrate but would abide by the restrictions.
Sen. Pat Roberts, a Republican from Kansas, said the loved ones of those who die have already sacrificed for the nation and "we must allow them the right to mourn without being thrust into a political circus."
Seems to me that it's time to bring in the White hats of the Patriot Guard Motor Cycle Club to protect and escort through any scum-bag protestors.

Had direct dealings with the Patriot Guards, and they do one hellva job. Its amusing to sit back and look at the protestors as they realize theyre about to gat their asses kicked by a group of bikers while the cops turn there back on this upcoming event.

These people are nothing but scum bags. Have had a few funerals around here that were protested and a few that they threatened to but never showed up. They are worthless pieces of crap.

I want to give a hug to the bikers that blocked em out at the ones around here(and everyone else who blocks them as much as they can.)

Ugh, makes me want to punch these protesters but I refuse to sink to that level for scum.

[Packo]

Meolody....I'll sink for you. Not on my watch! Good advice to those protesters......don't come around here pokin' sticks at any snakes.
