After this mornings assignment I have to vent. These Protesters/Demonstrators were in town today for a soldiers funeral. If you are not familiar with them, they kick the flag around, and have children doing the same, sing gospel hymns with their own words. Basically, anti U.S. It goes deeper, but you get the idea.
I'm all for freedom of speech, but where is the limit? This is wrong, horribly wrong. And we had to protect THEM from the good guys today. They attempt to make L.E. loose their cool so they can sue everyone they can. Several in the group are Civil Liberties Attorneys (imagine that) so they know how to play the system.
Seems to me, if they want to act the way they do, they should be responsible for the backlash. If they tried that in any other country, they would not last very long. A line should be drawn somewhere, possibly kicking our flag around? Demonstrating at a funeral?
Sorry for the rambling and flying thoughts, just made it home from this and still fired up.
