Anti War Left Spitting At The Vet’s Again

First it was the Vietnam Vet’s that were spit on,and now the Iraq Vet’s….As if the spitting wasn’t bad enough, the Capitol Police allowed the protesters to spray paint the Capitol Steps and pose for pictures:

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.

“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.

Spitting is disgusting, but I guess if you have no intelligence, it wouldn’t take much to get you to do this to someone!

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

Thanks to Allahpundit for this!

    More violent anti-war, anti-America rants. THE RETURN OF THE UNWASHED! The same as in the 60’s, bums with no jobs, or rich spoiled brats using Da-da’s money to go destroy a country they have never done anything to build. The scary thing, one of the 60’s spoiled brats was actually the president in ’s early 90’s.

    4, what is so Un-American about Snowy’s post, Chuck? Making people personally responsible for their vandalism or deporting riff-raff? Before you get all high and mighty, note that leftists and supposed peaceniks are talking about deporting people who support the War on Terror and Support Amdrica. So what is so un-America about Snowy that your side isn’t already doing?

    Well of course it is un-American to the Left because we have defined Patriotism, and it is of course defined in terms of criticism of the current regime! The more criticism, the more patriotic! The more obstruction (like the heroic struggle of the Democratic Party) the more patriotic! The more undermining, undercutting of the Bush administration, the more patriotic! The more hope, encouragement, and comfort we give to the enemy, directly or indirectly, the more patriotic!

    A few points:

    [1] Spitting at soldiers is disgusting, except possibly for those who engaged in abusing and torturing prisoners, or those soldiers who used prisoners as forced outlets for their odd little sexual fantasies… they’re a special case.

    [2] The second article you linked didn’t mention spitting although the reader wouldn’t know that unless they followed the link, what’s the point?

    [3] I’m given to wonder….. does opposition to Georges little adventure automatically make one “left”? I think it was a failed plan from the get go and I am way more anarchist than left, I know conservatives here in Canada who are against his war, are they now lefties? — and what about the Republicans down there who have lost patience with the decider’s failures? Are they lefties now to?

    Describing these people as anti-war or (as in the case of people like me) anti-this-war, would be far more accurate — don’t ya think? People who are protesting what has, and continues, to go on in Iraq come from all across the political spectrum. Pat Robertson is a right-wing Christian, should I tar all conservative Christians with his brand of stupidity?

    Because WE ARE AT WAR!!!

    As recently as August 2006, our enemies, the terrorists planned to blow up more planes coming from London to the US in an attack that would have killed more people than the 9/11 attack did.

    stageleft,

    Maybe Canadian wankers like yourself should keep your opinions IN CANADA!

    Maybe in the US when lawless protesters want to spray graffiti, honest, patriotic citizens should shoot them with paintball guns and paintball grenades.

    Freedom isn’t free, nor is it reserved for white Liberal elistists.

    8- What was the point of the 2nd article? This

    Anti-war protesters were allowed to spray paint on part of the west front steps of the United States Capitol building after police were ordered to break their security line by their leadership, two sources told The Hill.
    According to the sources, police officers were livid when they were told to fall back by U.S. Capitol Police (USCP) Chief Phillip Morse andDeputy Chief Daniel Nichols. “They were the commanders on the scene,” one source said, who requested anonymity. “It was disgusting.”
    After police ceded the stairs, located on the lower west front of the Capitol, the building was locked down, the source added.

    A second source who witnessed the incident said that the police had the crowd stopped at Third Street, but were told to bring the police line in front of the Capitol.

    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, the source said.

    We must learn to use apostrophes properly, as ‘Vietnam Vet’s’ = possessive versus ‘Vietnam Vets’ = plural (more than one). The same holds true for ‘Iraq Vet’s’(sic).

    Ah, the old “spitting saga” again. Yeah, okay whatever - more ‘urban legend’ crap spewed.

    A few people who spray paint (which is vandalism, BTW) are not representative of those who were expressing their right as American citizens over the weekend.

    Getting a vote on the viaduct is a challenge

    It just never seems to end. It’s not enough that so much time has been wasted with no work actually being done to fix the viaduct. Now they want to risk public safety by moving funds from one repair job to another.

    GP, Not Urban legend. Even the Traitorous NYT noted the inciden, but put it after the jump in the last paragraphs of their article.

    You lefties hate the US, its institutions, and you especially hate those that defend YOUR right to be utter traitorous A**holes.

    11- 300 people is more than a few Joe, and I just love how those that spit like to cover it up with the urban legend excuse.

    BTW- spray painting on federal property is considered to be a tad more than vandalism.

    7 and 8 are exactly the reason why we need to protect our country. We have idiots who inhabit our shores.

    Spitting on our soldiers and otherwise making derogatory remarks to and about them is counterproductive in my opinion. Let’s hope we never have to see them fighting the enemy in our streets outside our homes and in our cities.

    And Peejz is correct. Spray painting federal property is an offense. Are you now suggesting that people in America who disagree with policy be given a pass to ignore the rule of law?

  33. PCD Says:

    14, BonBon, those Anti-Americans already think they are above the law. I’m surprised they didn’t try to loot some store for goods they feel entitled to but are prevented from taking by old out od date laws and mores.

    You don’t know that they didn’t try to loot some stores PCD. I hadn’t heard anything but I know those shopkeepers have a weary eye out for this type of thing.

    Now I am so disgusted at how because of GWB we are loosing this war in Iraq! Now we hear that over the weekend 200 to 300 insurgents were killed and 100 captured! See, we are loosing!!!

    Now not only is it an outrage that these 300 insurgents were murdered, but even worse is the atrocities and torture the 100 kidnapped innocent Iraqis will now surely be subjected to!!! Remember Abu Ghraib? Hmmm??? How about Gitmo???

    I am calling on all Liberals, all Leftists, all anti-war activist to join me in condemning this new aggression! Free the 100 kidnapped insurgents! Call Ted Kennedy’s office and demand he do something about this!!!

    Did you hear: Jane Fonda is back!!! :smile: Oh, how we liberals love her! She had the courage to stand up against the military-industrial complex during the Vietnam war of aggression! Remember that glorious picture of her wearing a helmet and smiling at her North Vietnamese hosts as she took her place behind an anti-aircraft gun? She looked so inspiring, I still wet my pants when I see that photo! Anyway she’s still a hero to the Left. Liberals everywhere just love her!!! And why not? Who did more to help undermine America during the war than she? Well alright, there was John Kerry, but he was later and copied her) She has earned the adoration of the Left!!!

    Do you suppose Jane could do something this time as dramatic and heroic as that famous Vietnam photo? Oh, I know: She could be photographed strapping a bomb vest onto an insurgent bomber! She could do aerobics routines in the background of a beheading video! Or maybe be photographed personally placing a roadside IED!

    Just thinking of the possibilities is incredible!!! :razz:
