Quote:
Those dead soldiers and Marines are the ones who paid the price for our freedoms and they should be honored far beyond our meager ability to do so. That said, the low life scum from that so called church in Kansas are within their rights to think and believe whatever idiocy they choose. They are also within their rights, paid for by those honored dead, to stand on a street corner and promulgate that idiocy.
But, since those fools are acting in a most indecent and uncivil manner I think they relieve us from any obligation to treat them decently and civilly. Thus we, as decent people and patriotic citizens, are similarly within our rights to block them from sight, drown out their chants with exhaust roars and, if suitably provoked by fighting words, to respond in an appropriate manner.
Although I agree with the motives and intent of those who voted for and signed the "Respect for Fallen Heroes Act" I must disagree with the act itself. I don’t want the government restricting speech because it is abhorrent. I think the Patriot Guard is a proper response. Further, I think private “persuasion†is also appropriate if the protests become too intrusive. But outlawing an activity that is certainly within the realm of political speech should not be done by the Federal government.
OH MY!!! Did Larry and I just agree on something?
