Anti-War folk: ""These are nonviolent people. They are not attackers,"

[darin]

Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight..



OLYMPIA, Wash. (AP) - About 50 people have been arrested as demonstrators tried to block shipments of military gear for an Army Stryker brigade that returned recently to nearby Fort Lewis from Iraq, police said.

Police wearing riot gear fired pepper spray bullets into a crowd of more than 150 protesters Tuesday night at the Port of Olympia and several military convoys eventually moved out.

There was no immediate word on charges. Those who were arrested were held on a transit bus under police guard.

During the disorders a window in a police cruiser was broken by several rocks and another rock hit an officer in the knee, police Lt. James Costa said.

Demonstrators also poured cement over railroad tracks at the port but were unsuccessful in halting trains, but port personnel removed the cement and no arrests were made for that part of the protest, which was coordinated by Olympia Port Militarization Resistance, Costa said.


...there were reports of unrest in the downtown area, where windows at U.S. Bank branch were shattered.

These stupid hippies are an insult to humanity. Does ANYONE else see the stupidity at work in them? They 'want to end the war'. They want to 'bring the troops home' - yet they're trying to STOP SHIPMENTS OF THE SOLDIERS' EQUIPMENT BACK TO HOME-STATION!!!?!!

(sigh). Idiots. Impenetrable ignorance run amok. The further folk get from Truth, the further they get from God, the more insane they become.

At another anti war rally in DC last Jan - this is what the moonbat libs did:

Anti-war protesters vandalize Capitol building; Update: Protesters spat on Iraq war vet?

The Hill reports that anti-war protesters in town this weekend for the big defeat rally decided to spray their dissent all over the steps of the U.S. Capitol building:

Approximately 300 protesters were allowed to take the steps and began to spray paint “anarchist symbols” and phrase such as “Our capitol building” and “you can’t stop us” around the area, thesource said.

No shame:
“To get that close to the Capitol building, that is ridiculous,” the second source said. “[Police] were told not to arrest anyone.”
The second source added that police had to stand by and watch as protesters posed in front of their graffiti.

Update (AP): Kristinn Taylor has a post up at Free Republic claiming that Iraq war vet Joshua Sparling — no stranger to derision from the anti-war side — was spat on when he turned out to counterprotest in D.C. this weekend.

Update (AP): Good news: he wasn’t spit on. Bad news: he was spit at.
There were a few tense moments, however, including an encounter involving Joshua Sparling, 25, who was on crutches and who said he was a corporal with the 82nd Airborne Division and lost his right leg below the knee in Ramadi, Iraq. Mr. Sparling spoke at a smaller rally held earlier in the day at the United States Navy Memorial, and voiced his support for the administration’s policies in Iraq.

Later, as antiwar protesters passed where he and his group were standing, words were exchanged and one of the antiwar protestors spit at the ground near Mr. Sparling; he spit back.

Does supporting the war make you "closer to God?" C'mon. Does Stephen Colbert write your material for you? :laugh:

Make all the jokes you want

The US military knows how Dems feel about them and they know how you support them

That is why they vote in huge margins for Republicans
